The barrel is a type of armor that has different purposes in different games, including Plants vs. Zombies Adventures, Plants vs. Zombies 2, Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 and Plants vs. Zombies Heroes.
History[]
In Plants vs. Zombies Adventures, the barrel was worn by Barrel Zombie; it increased this zombie's health. If the barrel was destroyed, his speed would increase and he would ignore all plants except for Wall-nuts and Hard-nuts.
In Plants vs. Zombies 2, the barrel is used by Barrel Roller Zombie to crush plants. It contains two Imp Pirate Zombies, which will be released after the barrel is broken. Spikeweed, Spikerock, Bamboo Shoot, Iceweed, Bramble Bush, Boingsetta, and a hiding Cactus can destroy it instantly. Like other shields, it blocks Snow Pea's's slowing effect and lobbed shots will hit the zombie directly, instead of the barrel. In expansion levels of Pirate Seas, a broken barrel is also worn by Barrelhead Zombie as protection.
In Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, the barrel is worn by Barrel Pirate as a piece of armor. It is also used in Barrel Blast.
In Plants vs. Zombies Heroes, the barrel is used by the Barrel Roller Zombie. It is also used by Barrel of Deadbeards.
Overview[]
In Plants vs. Zombies Adventures, the barrel absorbed 12 shots before breaking and did not degrade, and could be instantly destroyed by Flaming Pea.
In Plants vs. Zombies 2, the barrel pushed by Barrel Roller Zombie absorbs 1100 damage and degrades upon absorbing 380, 740, and 1100 when the barrel is destroyed. It can be instantly destroyed by Spikeweed, Spikerock, Iceweed, Boingsetta or a hiding Cactus. Bamboo Spartan will heavily damage barrel.

Trivia[]
Specific to Plants vs. Zombies Adventures (Archived content)[]
- The barrel had three x's on it, which meant that it contained an alcoholic beverage.
- In Barrel Zombie's Facebook description, it said that the Barrel Zombie bought it at a barrel store.
- At the end of the Plants vs. Zombies Adventures trailer, a Barrel Zombie was shown below the title. He was soon attacked by a lone pea, which destroyed the barrel. The zombie was then completely naked, with the nudity pixel-blurred.
Specific to Plants vs. Zombies 2[]
- There are also three x's, but there are only two visible, because one is cut by the hole with eyes.
Specific to Plants vs. Zombies Heroes[]
- The barrel that Barrel Roller Zombie has is smaller than its Plants vs. Zombies 2 version, being around the same size as his head.
- When Barrel Roller Zombie is destroyed and the barrel is broken, two Imps can be seen hopping out of it. However, Barrel Roller Zombie spawns Swabbies when he is destroyed.
