Hasbro has revealed that popular board game MONOPOLY is set to undergo a major change and it needs your help.
The brand has launched a new campaign called MONOPOLY Throwback Token Vote which is giving fans of the board game from around the world the chance to bring back one of the six tokens that are no longer included in the game’s box.
The winning token will be added into a refreshed version of the Classic MONOPOLY board game that will be available to buy from early 2023.
The current Classic board game includes the Scottie, Battleship, Racecar, Top Hat, Penguin, T-Rex, Hazel, and Rubber Ducky tokens and is set to see a change too with one of these tokens being replaced by the winning token of the vote in the refreshed MONOPOLY.
You might remember the six tokens well - Thimble, Wheelbarrow, Iron, Boot, Horse & Rider, and Money Bag – and if you miss them, now’s the time to try to get your favourite back.
Fans of the game will need to cast a vote to bring one of the tokens back, here’s how you can vote.
