It's a day ending in Y, and you know what that means! Time for some wild speculation about upcoming releases, but today's news has a bit more meat on the bones. A new entry in the beloved Plants Vs. Zombies franchise, titled Plants Vs. Zombies Reloaded, has just been spotted on the Brazilian Classificação Indicativa rating board. This could be a strong indicator of an imminent new release in the series.

The classification lists Plants Vs. Zombies Reloaded for both mobile and console platforms. It's important to note that a classification differs from a trademark, which is often where early whispers of new games originate. The appearance on a rating board suggests that the board may have had access to an early build of the game for evaluation.

Interestingly, the game has been given an L or all-ages rating, fitting well with the family-friendly nature of the Plants Vs. Zombies series. However, the classification doesn't shed light on other details such as pricing or the inclusion of microtransactions.

Zombies was a major success story in the early days of mobile gaming, and with the support of EA, it successfully transitioned to mainline consoles with the fully 3D Garden Warfare series. The title "Reloaded" could hint at anything from a revamped re-release to a full-fledged sequel, depending on how you interpret it.

Despite this promising development, it's not guaranteed that Plants Vs. Zombies Reloaded will definitely hit the market. However, given how far along it seems to be in production, I'd bet we'll see an official announcement sometime this year.
