For a decade, Ubisoft tackled the cult board game of Monopoly with for example MONOPOLY for Nintendo Switch / MONOPOLY PLUS Or MONOPOLY Madness. During the pre-show of theUbisoft Forward of this Monday, it is with a certain surprise that we discovered not a DLC more for the 2014 game, but a brand new production simply called MONOPOLY, developed by Engine Software. Well, the basics of course remain the same, but the visual coating will be updated, as will the gameplay.
This MONOPOLY is expected in September on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch, PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, Ubisoft Store) and Amazon Luna. It will require an internet connection and an account Ubisoft for multiplayer and online features, in addition to subscriptions required depending on the platform.
