'Monopoly Streets' (Wii/PS3/X360) - New Screens

by Rainier on May 7, 2010 @ 1:15 a.m. PDT

For the first time ever, players will experience Monopoly as a fully dynamic, living, 3D world that continuously evolves with the video game action.

Additionally, MONOPOLY Streets will feature online multiplayer and unique downloadable content for Xbox360 and PS3 players around the world. The experience will offer an assortment of features that add to the thrill of becoming a MONOPOLY real estate mogul. Hasbro’s classic MONOPOLY will also be available on the NDS in conjunction with the release of MONOPOLY Streets.

In recognition of the MONOPOLY brand entertaining families around the globe for 75 years, MONOPOLY Streets will offer players the ability to become completely immersed within a MONOPOLY-themed world, re-imagined to experience the game at street level. Developing properties within high rent districts will produce lavish houses and hotels that appear within the world and further substantiate its visual appeal, while developing in the less expensive areas provide more modest, but no less interesting, establishments. The game will also feature player-owned headquarters that rise and fall along with the Player’s fortunes – large and luxurious when winning, stunted and minuscule when losing. For purists, MONOPOLY Streets will offer classic game board modes, as well.


MONOPOLY Streets will come loaded with an array of imaginative twists such as the ability to establish “house rules” where players can save their own set of customized rules tailored to their group of friends.  In addition, players will be able to create and play as their own Wii Mii or Xbox 360 avatar, and have the city populated by their friend’s Wii Mii or Xbox 360 avatars. Online play will also ratchet up the fun allowing players to find and challenge other aspiring moguls while tracking ranking and progress on local, national and world leaderboards.  Additionally, the game will feature an assortment of downloadable content such as a variety of themed boards, characters, tokens and avatar gear.
