Available for both platforms.
If you're looking for a way-better-than-it-has-any-right-to-be co-op game, the first Garden Warfare was a fun time...

Is this new one fun?

Haven't played this one yet, but the first one was fun as heck. It just got completely overshadowed by Titanfall for me.
Damn, I need to play more Titanfall :D

Definitely more complex (and hectic) than the first one, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Double the number of classes, so it feels a bit less focused while players all adapt to the strengths and weaknesses of the classes.
It takes a huge number of cues from Destiny, with multiple types of Bounties, a Tower-like hub for each of the two factions, and a no-man's land "patrol" area where you might be able to grind out bounties (though I could be wrong).
The UI is a tad confusing (only a tiny cue in the character selection kiosk tells you how to switch teams, for example), especially since a lot of stuff leads to dead ends (buy the full game!), but once you get into the action, it's fun.
My favorite new class is the Citron, which is a cross between the Droideka from Battlefront, and Sanic the Hedgehog.
Might need some balancing (the Titanfall-esque mech that the imp class calls down is a bit overpowered), but the spirit of the first game is there. Plus, it'll support splitscreen!
Too bad the beta doesn't support split screen

I played some this morning and had a bit of fun. The full game should be great, but I probably won't play the beta much because the split screen is disabled currently. I'll definitely think about getting the final game though for the split screen play.
