EA has finally updated the original Plants Vs. Zombies iPhone game with support for the iPhone 5's 4-inch screen, which originally came out last year.

The game, which has received only a couple of bug fix updates in the past year, was updated today with iOS 7 support and some "gameplay bug fixes". The sequel, Plants vs. Zombies 2, was released in August.

Plants Vs. Zombies

What's new

• Optimization for the latest and greatest devices!
• Updates to ensure operating system compatibility and stability
• Gameplay bug fixes to keep Plants planting & Zombies zombie-ing!

Back in March of this year, Apple began requiring all app updates to support the 4-inch display on the iPhone 5, in order to have a consistent experience for users buying the latest Apple devices.

Plants vs. Zombies is available for $0.99 as two separate iPhone and iPad apps. [iPhone, iPad]

Plants vs. Zombies 2 is a free download from App Store. [Direct Link]

Well, never though I'd say it, but credit where credit is due to EA for updating an "old" app - most houses seem to drop all support and development for apps as soon as they bring out a newer version.

Wish they would do that with Peggle! Probably never happen, though.
