Understanding PvZ Hybrid version numbers
The two editions number their releases independently:
- Remake (0.x): 0.26 → 0.26.1 → 0.27 → 0.28 → 0.28.1 → 0.29 → 0.30. A “.1” release is a maintenance or small follow-up update.
- Classic (3.x): 3.17 → 3.18.
Do not compare across lines. Classic 3.18 is not newer than Remake 0.30 just because 3.18 is a bigger number; Remake 0.30 actually came out later. They are different games with different files, saves and translation packs. Our Remake vs Classic guide explains the difference in depth.

Which version should you download?
- New player on Android: Remake 0.30 APK.
- New player on PC: Remake 0.30 ZIP, or Classic 3.18 if you specifically want the original mod.
- Following an older video or guide: match the exact version shown, and install it in its own folder.
- Using an English or other fan translation: use the version the translation was made for. See the English version guide.
- Using the Level Editor: pair each game version with its matching editor (e.g. 0.28.1 uses editor 0.28).
Why we keep old versions
Old builds are useful when a new update breaks something on your device, when a save or custom level was made in an older release, or when you want to compare how a plant changed between updates. We label every old version clearly as “previous” so nobody downloads an outdated build by mistake.
🛡️ Switching between versions safely
- Back up your saves first. Classic saves are in
%ProgramData%\Popcap Games\PlantsVsZombies\pvzHE\yourdata. - Install each PC version in its own clearly named folder, e.g.
PvZ Hybrid Remake 0.29. - On Android, installing an older APK over a newer one is usually blocked. You may need to uninstall, which can delete progress, so back up first.
- Write down which version actually works for you before deleting anything.
Where to follow new versions
New releases are announced first on the creator’s Bilibili channel (潜艇伟伟迷). We add each release to our updates and changelog page as soon as it is out, with its date and highlights.
