Icy Currant
This plant has been found in the game's code. There is a lone texture for it, which appears to be an ice variant of Electric Currant. It is currently unknown what it does.

New Vasebreaker levels
Three new levels of Far Future, Dark Ages, and Big Wave Beach Vasebreaker have been added to the code, though specifics are currently unknown.

Specific to Big Wave Beach Vasebreaker

 * It would be the first Vasebreaker level with a major environment modifier.

Jukebox
There is currently a data for the jukebox in the code. It is unknown how it works or where it can be played. However, it could provide a way to listen to the game's soundtrack. Resources†ý...UI_PauseMenu..UI_DangerRoomþ, which suggests it could be played in the pause menu or Endless Zones. It also has UI but currently has no textures.

Jurassic Marsh additional levels
Jurassic Marsh is getting 10 new levels as well with its own new zombies. As of the release of Far Future Days 26 - 35, the player can see empty slots for these three new zombies in the Almanac.

Amberhead Zombie
Amberhead Zombie will be a variant of Brickhead Zombie for Jurassic Marsh.

Origins
Amberhead's name and design is based off amber fossils, which are fossilized tree resin from Neolithic times.

Almanac entry
Amberhead Zombie's head-engulfing ball of amber provides hardened protection.

If you were to extract DNA from the Amberhead Zombie and combine it with the DNA of a frog, you'd be breaking the law at some point.

Trivia

 * The Almanac entry references the movie series Jurassic Park, as in the first movie, a mosquito that bites a dinosaur gets stuck in amber, then many years later, humans found the preserved mosquito and combined the dinosaur DNA inside the mosquito with a frog/toad's and brought dinosaurs back from extinction.
 * Even though Jurassic Marsh has a zombie with machined protection named Jurassic Fossilhead, another zombie is made with machined protection.
 * The reason of this is that Jurassic Fossilhead is just similar to Knight Zombie and Blockhead Zombie, while Amberhead Zombie is a variant of Brickhead Zombie, who has higher health than the previously three zombies, which is close to Robo-Cone Zombie's and identical to Mecha-Football Zombie, Disco-tron 3000, etc.
 * The "Sap Spawn" surprise attacks introduced in the Far Future level additions may also allude to this zombie, as amber is created from tree sap. This zombie could possibly be spawned from this ambush only, similar to Lost Pilot Zombies.
 * Amber is fossilized tree resin, so it is unknown how a zombie from the times tree resin was still sticky somehow got into a fossilized version of it.

Jurassic Rockpuncher
Jurassic Rockpuncher will be an upgraded version of Jurassic Bully.

Almanac entry
Jurassic Rockpuncher pummels plants with rocks tied to his hands.

Somebody tied rocks to Jurassic Rockpuncher's hands. Being unable to remove them (because he had rocks tied to his hands), he was left with no choice but to roll with it.

Trivia

 * His almanac entry makes a subtle of the "rock and roll" joke.

Jurassic Rally Zombie
Jurassic Rally Zombie will be a variant of Rally Zombie for Jurassic Marsh.

Almanac entry
Jurassic Rally Zombie marks the arrival of large group of zombies.

Where did Jurassic Rally Zombie get his fancy new flag? Nobody knows. It's a mystery. The police should look into it. Or maybe we could get a fund together and hire a detective. It's a real puzzle.

Trivia

 * His Almanac entry references how his flag looks like Rally Zombie's, only changing the handles (bones instead of wood), and how it's a lot more fancy considering the prehistoric designs other zombies have.

Zombot Dinotronic Mechasaur 2.0
The new Zombot for Jurassic Marsh.

Wild West additional levels
Wild West is getting 10 new levels as well with its own new zombies. As of the release of Pirate Seas Days 26-35, the player can see empty slots for these three new zombies in the Almanac.

Cart-Head Zombie
Cart-Head Zombie will be a variant of Brickhead Zombie for Wild West.

Almanac entry
Cart-head Zombie's cart-shaped chapeau provides extra-wheeled head protection.

Cart-Head Zombie could probably move a lot faster if he did a handstand and rolled, but he's not thinking that far ahead.

Rodeo Legend Zombie
Rodeo Legend Zombie will be an upgrade of Zombie Bull.

Almanac entry
Rodeo Legend Zombie smashes a plant and launches his Zombie rider past most of your defenses.

"Legend" perhaps overstates Rodeo Legend Zombie's status in the rodeo world. Don't tell him that, though, unless you're desperate to hear an hour-long tirade about calf-roping.

Trivia

 * It is known that Rodeo Legend Zombie will be able to destroy instantly any plant he finds while charging, similar to the Jurassic Rockpuncher.
 * It is also known that after charging, he will charge again after 4 seconds.

Cowboy Rally Zombie
Cowboy Rally Zombie will be a variant of Rally Zombie for Wild West.

Almanac entry
Cowboy Rally Zombie marks the appearance of a sizable stampede of zombies.

Arrows point to the brain on Cowboy Rally's Flag, as if to say, "Hey everyone, I would like to emphasize this image." It's canny design.

Trivia

 * His almanac entry references the design of his flag.

Zombot War Wagon 2.0
The new Zombot for Wild West.

Dark Ages additional levels
Dark Ages is getting 10 new levels as well with its own new zombies. As of the release of Pirate Seas Days 26-35, the player can see empty slots for these three new zombies in the Almanac. It appears that there will be a new variant of Brickhead Zombie, a Rally Zombie variant for Dark Ages and an upgraded Wizard Zombie.

Trivia

 * Dark Ages will now have 2 machined protection zombies, similar to Jurassic Marsh.

Jurassic Marsh lawn change
In the 6.0.1 beta version's Jurassic Marsh - Day 42, the lawn's color is changed, and it now looks lighter, and now resembles the Chinese version lawn.

Moongrains music
In the 6.0.1 OBB file, there was a new music track added. The music's melody is similar to Moongrains (the Night music in Plants vs. Zombies). It is unknown what it will be used for, however there was an unfinished level called "Modern Day - Night 45" which uses this music.

Trivia

 * This could be a "Part 4" of Modern Day, now being at night.
 * In relation, all worlds could get the "Night" variations, as worlds such as Modern Day and Lost City are on the list.
 * Strangely, Dark Ages and Neon Mixtape Tour are already night so they might have day levels.
 * This music track is a remix of the Night music in Plants vs. Zombies.

Modern Day new content
There is a new level (possibly a new part to Modern Day) (see the first video in "Moongrains Music" part) that includes the following:

Trivia

 * The Flag Zombie present in this level is the variant from Far Future even though the level is in Modern Day.

Choose Your Seeds from Plants vs. Zombies
In the 6.1.1 alpha version OBB file, there was also music added that is nearly identical to the Choose Your Seeds music in the first game, but again, with different instruments.

Trivia

 * This could be related to the Moongrains music above.

Solar Tomato
There is information about Solar Tomato found from the 6.1.1 beta version. It costs 50 sun, has a sluggish recharge, stuns zombies, does light damage, and has typical toughness. It is unfinished and has no sprites either.

When eaten, Solar Tomato will do light damage to all zombies in a 3 by 3 area, making the zombies produce two miniature suns each.

When fed Plant Food, Solar Tomato will do light damage to all zombies on the screen, and makes them produce two miniature suns each.

Subject to change, using gameplay from Ginta Gaming.

Electric Peashooter
There has also been data found in the 6.1.1 beta version for an Electric Peashooter. Its stats are very similar to Peashooter's stats, however it also has code for a sparking ability, much like Lightning Reed. There is an image of it. It has sprites and a seed packet texture as well.

Almanac entry
Electric Peashooters fire pea-like orbs that pass through zombies and crackle with electric power, doing damage all the while.

Trivia

 * This, Pea Pod, Threepeater, and Pea-nut are the only peashooting plants to not share the same idle animations with the other peashooting plants.
 * Since this plants has been found with Wild West background data, and because this plant shares similar traits to Lightning Reed, this plant could be obtained in the new Wild West levels.
 * It shares similarities with Electro Pea from Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. This, however, is a lighter shade of blue.
 * The "Ohm" in it's almanac entry references a German sign for electrical resistance.
 * Technically it is a peashooter form of Laser Bean - Its projectiles travel down the lane and cannot be deflected by any zombies.
 * However, Electric Peashooter's Plant food affect is much different from Laser Bean's.
 * Electric Peashooter launches a giant orb which targets a high-health zombie on the screen when fed plant food, releasing small orbs on contact which fly in all directions.
 * These small orbs can fly off the screen (from current gameplay, may be subject to change).
 * Its costume references the idea of using electricity to power objects - in this case, a sign (similar to Electric Currant and Electric Blueberry).
 * Coincidentally, these three plants all have "Electric" in their names.
 * Electric Peashooter may be the reward for completing the Epic Quest of the Wild West expansion, as it has some premium backgrounds in its textures and Wild West backgrounds in others.
 * This would be the first true "event" plant, assuming the Wild West expansion quest will only last for 10 days.
