In a press release on their website, game publisher and world domination contender Electronic Arts announced they will be releasing Monopoly on multiple platforms. That’s right, you can bankrupt your friends and loved ones on the Wii, Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, Pogo.com, and even on mobile phones. 

Monopoly is no stranger to the virtual world, having been available on the PC as early as 1995. However, EA promises to take the family favorite on a new level. The EA version of Monopoly will feature 4-player simultaneous play, unlockable game boards, and interactive minigames.

EA’s Monopoly (snort) is inspired by Hasbro’s upcoming Monopoly Here and Now: World Edition board game. The video games are slated to launch in the fall, simultaneously with the board game.

   If it’s not an Arcade title for 400 points it won’t be worth it.
