Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can currently pick up the Deluxe Edition of Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 for free. Gamers need to act fast, as this Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 deal can only be claimed today (December 22).
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 was released back in 2016, as part of the multiplayer spin-off series to the popular Plants vs. Zombies games. It was a solid improvement over the original, with Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 receiving positive reviews overall. It wasn't a genre-defining game-changer, but that's okay. Some games are fine simply being fun, and that's exactly what Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 provided in abundance.
Every Plants Vs. Zombies Game, Ranked
The Plant Vs. Zombies franchise has been around for a while, giving players amazing tower defense-style games, but which are the best out of them all?
Now, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and EA Play subscribers can currently head to the Xbox Store to pick up Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 for free for a limited time. The deal is only available today (December 22), so it's a matter of urgency for any gamer who wants to give it a try. It's worth noting that players don't actually have to install the game immediately - once it's claimed, it's bound to an Xbox account forever, so it's a great opportunity to find one of the best third-person multiplayer games free of charge.
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 is Free on Xbox Game Pass For a Limited Time
This deal is part of EA Play's Christmas celebrations, which has also seen games like Battlefield 1 and Star Wars Battlefront 2 go free on Xbox Game Pass for a limited time. While these deals are gone, these celebrations are set to run daily until December 26, so any gamer who has missed the free offerings so far still has a few days left to see what comes next. Upon EA's initial announcement of this set of freebies, Titanfall 2: Ultimate Edition was confirmed and has yet to be included, so that's certainly one to keep an eye on.
Xbox Game Pass continues to go from strength to strength, and hopes are high that 2025 is going to be another solid year for the subscription service. Speculation recently began about a potential Call of Duty Game Pass announcement after a classic game in the series launched on the PC's Microsoft Store, although nothing is confirmed at this point. The company's acquisition of companies like Activision and Bethesda has certainly strengthened the value for money offered by Xbox Game Pass, which seems set to continue for the foreseeable future.
