EA Play adds Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted and MySims

Two ways to revisit familiar worlds

Electronic Arts announced on November 5 that Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted and MySims: Cozy Bundle had joined EA Play on Xbox. Replanted refreshes the original garden defence game with HD presentation, local cooperative and competitive play, and additional challenges. The MySims collection pairs the original game with MySims Kingdom, combining construction, decorating and character requests. These are library additions, rather than announcements of entirely new entries in either series.

What membership includes

EA's benefits page separates its Play List from its trials programme. The collection offers ongoing access while eligible membership is active; selected new releases instead have trials lasting up to ten hours. A game appearing in a trial should therefore not be confused with a full library addition. Members also receive selected in-game rewards and a ten percent discount on eligible EA digital purchases, including games and downloadable content.

The service says benefits can change and that a membership selection applies to one platform. That makes the platform and product listing useful checks before subscribing for a particular title. For an existing member, these additions offer a straightforward choice between planning a defence and building a personalised town. For someone considering membership, the relevant question is whether the available collection fits their plans beyond one nostalgic evening.
