Gnomus the Gnome King is the overarching antagonist of the 2016 third-person shooter game Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. He is the king of the Gnomes, who often sends them with tasks to destroy the Plants and Zombies' Infinite Robots or to invade different parts of Earth.
History[]
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2[]
King Gnomus first appears when the players entered the Gnomiverse while controlling their Infinite Robots (depends if their on the side of the Plants or on the side of the Zombies). After they charged up Time Stability, Gnomus will send a Gnome Floatie to destabilize it. After it is destroyed, he will send in Gnomes to stop the Infinite Robots until all of their health is depleted. Gnomus will also send in more Gnome Floaties to deplete the Time Stability.
In every five waves, he will send an Impostor King that matches the color of the zone the Players are in. Each is sent in an order, starting first with blue and then end with red. During Nemesis Waves, he and his gnomes will summon a Garden/Tombstone that can spawn an infinite amount of Plants/Zombies until they are destroyed in a certain amount of time.
When the player is defeated, he will give the players a chest, with the amount of shards collected that makes the rewards greater. If they collect a number of time shards that are below 500, he will say, "Too few Time Shards to merit a reward! Begone!".
Trials of Gnomus DLC[]
In a teaser for the DLC, King Gnomus, while not appearing, sends a letter to the Ministry of Mystery, thanking them for their production on the Trials of Gnomus for both the plants and the zombies.
Gnomus also appeared in the Brothers Gnomus' boss hunt to command his gnome army and the titular group of bosses to invade Time Park.
Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville[]
King Gnomus does not make a physical appearance in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. However, Sven mentions the Gnome Knights bullied him at Gnomus' birthday party through phone calls.

Trivia[]
- Gnomus the Gnome King may be a reference to King Globus from Hammer Heads, another game developed by PopCap.
- He, the Brothers Gnomus (who are princes) and the Gnome Knights are the only gnomes known to be of royalty.
- As The Brothers Gnomus are the princes and Gnomus is the King, Gnomus is the father of the Brothers Gnomus.
- One of his lines, "One gnome left the Gnomiverse on VERY bad terms!", is often thought to be referring to Rux, who is one of the few Gnomes not to be hostile. Same with the other gnomes who are Mr. Lucky, Chip, Wingding, and Sven.
- While he is the leader of the gnomes, he states he is not the first gnome to come into existence.
