Hasbro has once again upgraded its iconic Monopoly board game, this time with a more feminine twist.
The toy company has announced the debut of “Ms. Monopoly,” which will feature a dark-haired woman mascot on the cover.
However, the real twist of the game is that this time, women will get more money than their male competitors.
“Unlike the classic game, women will collect 240 Monopoly bucks when they pass ‘go,’ while male players will collect the usual 200. The idea is to create a game where women make more than men, the first game to do so,” Hasbro said, according to CNN.
In a statement released Tuesday, Hasbro said the game “celebrates women trailblazers,” adding that “while Mr. Monopoly is a real-estate mogul, Ms. Monopoly is an advocate whose mission is to invest in female entrepreneurs.”
The statement continued:
On August 24, Breitbart News reported that Hasbro recently created a version of the board game called “Monopoly: Socialism” that mocked the economic system.
The Amazon product description read:
Previously in 2018, the company debuted “Monopoly for Millenials,” making fun of things like avocado toast and veganism.
However, Breitbart News reported that social media users were seemingly “offended” by it and took to the Internet to express their opinions on the new version of the board game.
“What?! @Hasbro’s #Millennial Monopoly says ‘forget real estate, you cant afford it anyway.’ Hopefully they’ll be donating the proceeds to student debt relief. (which is why millennials can’t afford real estate),” one user wrote.
Hasbro defended the board game by stating that the company wanted to give players “a lighthearted game that allows Millennials to take a break from real life and laugh at the relatable experiences and labels that can sometimes be placed on them.”
“Whether you are a lifestyle vlogger, emoji lover or you make your ‘side hustle’ selling vegan candles, Monopoly for Millennials is for you!” the statement from the company read.
