Critic Reviews for Plants vs Zombies: Battle for Neighborville
Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville, the latest in the quirky character shooter franchise, doesn't quite justify all its content.
PVZ: Battle for Neighborville's messy maps and repetitive solo campaigns are rescued by an exciting and cute roster and varied multiplayer modes.
Despite strong competitive and cooperative multiplayer action, the PvE elements fall short of those marquee modes. The progression leads to more frustration than satisfaction
Plants vs. Zombies: Battle For Neighborville Complete Edition more than lives up to its name. A huge amount of content, lots of replayability, and an overall charming aesthetic make this an easy recommendation for anybody looking for a solid new shooter for their Switch. That said, just bear in mind that it often runs into performance issues and that the single-player offering can prove to be a little repetitive in the long run. If you can get past those issues, this release will surely prove to be worth both your time and money.
Plants Vs. Zombies: Battle For Neighborville Complete Edition is one of the better shooters on Nintendo Switch, with tons of content and modes to play around in. The framerate isn't great, and the lack of two-player split-screen is a shame, though.
Battle for Neighborville is fun and bursting with humour. It's packed with content that you can play co-operatively in PvE and competitively in multiplayer, but some balancing issues at present can make the competitive side feel a bit of a slog.
Even at times Battle for Neighborville seems like a elaborate remaster of Garden Warfare 2, but there is still a lot of fun to be had. However, some of the game's more obvious issues cannot be ignored, including its unbalanced online matchmaking.
