MONOPOLY: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains is now officially available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, GeForce NOW, and Windows PC via the Ubisoft Store, Epic Games Store, and Steam. This game brings a team-based format to the MONOPOLY formula with a Star Wars setting and gameplay mechanics that differ from the classic version.
Developed by Behavior Interactive, this game places players on a Star Wars-themed board and focuses on teamwork, controlling locations, and earning Influence Points.
Featuring Boards and Characters from Various Eras
MONOPOLY: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains features 22 iconic locations from various eras of Star Wars. The game board is specially designed to reflect these settings, making the Star Wars universe a central part of the gaming experience.
This game also features 28 heroes and villains. Each character has a total of 14 unique abilities, adding variety to every match. With this setup, character selection influences how teams strategize during the game.
In addition to characters and locations, this game also features cinematic moments and special tiles that change the situation in the middle of a match.
Influence Points and the Battle System Are the Key Differentiators
The main difference between MONOPOLY: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains lies in the victory system. This game does not follow the classic MONOPOLY format, as the final outcome is determined by Influence Points.
Points are earned by purchasing and upgrading properties. This system gives the game a different pace, as players need to maintain control of their territory while continuing to accumulate points.
Ubisoft has also added Dynamic GO Events that can grant or deduct large amounts of Influence Points. These events can cause the standings in a match to change rapidly.
Meanwhile, the Battle System will activate when players land on the same tile. At that point, a dice challenge will determine control of the contested location.
2v2 and 3v3 Modes Strengthen the Team-Based Format
This game supports 2v2 and 3v3 modes, both online and in couch co-op. These formats make teamwork a key part of the game.
With this structure, players’ decisions aren’t just about individual movements on the board. Coordination among team members is also a key factor, especially when using abilities, maintaining positions, and reading changes in the situation caused by events that occur.
This approach makes the game stand out from other digital adaptations of MONOPOLY, which usually stay closer to the traditional board game format.
Available on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, GeForce NOW, and PC
This game is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, GeForce NOW, and Windows PC. The PC version is available via Ubisoft Store, Epic Games Store, and Steam.
This availability provides broad access to both console and PC players who want to try the Star Wars-themed MONOPOLY game, which focuses on team-based gameplay.
For players looking for a more fast-paced version of MONOPOLY, this game has a fairly clear design direction.
