Plants vs. Zombies 2/Upcoming content


 * For upcoming content in the Chinese version, see Plants vs. Zombies 2 (Chinese version)/Upcoming content.

This page lists upcoming content for Plants vs. Zombies 2. Please note that things change over time, and that some things listed now might become scrapped later. For these reasons, the concepts page serves as an archive of past features.

Solar Tomato
Along with Electric Peashooter, in the coding, there is a plant called "Solar Tomato". It is unknown if this is a beta or a upcoming plant, or if it has been scrapped.

Trivia

 * This would be the first tomato plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2.

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

Trivia

 * It is the fifth ice variant of a plant in the main series, behind Snow Pea, Winter Melon, Iceberg Lettuce, and Missile Toe.
 * However, Icy Currant is the seventh overall if you include the spin-off games, which contain Chilly Pepper and Winter Squash.
 * This is still discounting all of the ice variations of classes in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2, who are Ice Pea, Ice Cactus, Yeti Chomper, Frozen Citron and Frost Rose. This brings the total number of ice variants up to 12.

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.

Arcade Machine
The arcade machine appears to be a new mode where the player gets to play mini-games. According to the sprites, the known mini-games appear to be Vasebreaker, Wall-nut Bowling or Column Like You See 'Em, and a Pac-Man resembling mini-game, with the head of a Chomper being Pac-Man. 8-Bit Zombie's sprites are also featured in the sprites for the Arcade Machine, suggesting that 8-Bit Zombie will be featured in some of these mini-games. Bonk Choy sprites can also be seen, so it may appear in a Vasebreaker mode or a minigame similar to Column Like You See 'Em.

Trivia

 * The sprites that are found in the code are likely low quality to replicate 8-bit arcade systems.
 * The Arcade Machine is most likely based on, or is one of, the arcade machines that the Arcade Zombie pushes.
 * They both have pictures of a Peashooter and a Basic Zombie on them.
 * The icon of this mode will replace the icon of Vasebreaker.
 * The 8-bit scheme may be a reference to the nostalgia of the first game, having its original mini-games, though, the 8-bit may be an exaggeration of how long ago the first game was, giving it a retro feel.
 * There is Going to be an I Zombie game according to the code

Jukebox
There is currently data for a 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.

This suggests it has a Song List, Rewind Button, Fast Forward Button, Play Button, Loop Button, and Shuffle Button.

It also appears they will have album artwork for every world.

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, you will 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.
 * This is most likely due to the lack of zombies with special abilities present in the world, as dinosaurs fulfill that role.
 * The "Sap Spawn" Surprise Attack 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's 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, you will see empty slots for these three new zombies in the Almanac. There are three new zombies to be released, namely the Carthead Zombie, Cowboy Rally Zombie and Rodeo Legend Zombie. The boss, Zombot War Wagon 2.0, will appear on Day 35.

Carthead Zombie will be a variant of Brickhead Zombie, Cowboy Rally Zombie will be the Rally Zombie variant for Wild West, and Rodeo Legend Zombie will be an upgrade of Zombie Bull. Currently, not much is known about these three zombies.

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

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.

Choose Your Seeds from Plants vs. Zombies
In the 6.0.1 OBB file, there was also music added for a small piece of music that is nearly identical to the Choose Your Seeds music in the first game, but again, with different instruments.

Electric Peashooter
There has also been data found in 6.0.1 for an "electricpeashooter". Its stats are very similar to Peashooter's stats, however it also has code for a sparking ability, much like Lightning Reed. However, not much is known about it, and there are currently no graphics for it.
