The first official trailer for the sequel to the popular Plants vs. Zombies casual game was released today. Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time will be coming to the iPad, iPhone and iTouch in July 2013.

The trailer is more of a charming 3D cut-scene setting that sort of teases at the general plot for the actual game. Basically the home owner from the first game, Crazy Dave, is bunking down for another zombie attack  by setting up the series mainstay (and adorable) plants on the front lawn. He retreats into his garage and starts up his car, which is somehow jerry-rigged to work as a time machine. This implies that the title means the game is literally about time (I'm a sucker for clever puns).

So far I'm really excited for Plants vs. Zombies 2--here's hoping that it serves as a major improvement over the first game and not some cheap cash. Meanwhile, the trailer's posted below for your own viewing pleasure.
