40 free Plants Vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 trivia questions with answers — trivia quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 took a lawn-defence puzzle series and turned it into a full-blown team battle, with pea-firing plants and brain-hungry zombies trading places as attackers and defenders. Released in 2016, it added new heroes on both sides, a story to play alone and a town to explore between matches. This PvZ GW2 quiz covers the whole game: the character classes and their abilities, the multiplayer and co-op modes, the maps and their objectives, the story missions, the free updates that followed launch and a few facts about how the game was made and received. It is pitched at players of every level. Anyone who has spent an evening in Garden Ops will find the opening questions friendly, while the later ones are aimed at fans who unlocked every variant and remember each update.
