Plants vs. Zombies has finally been updated with support for the taller, 4 inch screen that’s in the iPhone 5, 5S, and 5C. That’s great news, especially since the taller screen size has been around since the iPhone 5 came out a year ago!
Plants vs. Zombies is the wildly popular tower defense (ish) game that pits your roster of mutant plants against the advancing hordes of cartoon zombies. It originally came out for the iPhone way back in 2009. The cartoonish style, humor, and addicting gameplay have made it a modern classic, and it’s since been ported to just about every device, computer platform and console under the sun.
The sequel, Plants vs. Zombies 2: It’s About Time, recently launched using a free to play model. But the classic PvZ can be yours on iOS for only $0.99. Now it will even look good on your fancy new iPhone 5S too!
For more info on the game and the new updates, here’s the blurb from iTunes:
