Sliding skills take centre stage in Hasbro’s Monopoly Knockout
Hasbro has launched a shuffleboard-inspired take on Monopoly called Monopoly Knockout.
Boasting a three-foot-long board, Monopoly Knockout sees players slide tokens down the board in a bid to land on properties and earn cash.
Players can also try to knock a rival’s tokens into the Jail spots, or off the board completely. At the end of each round, they’ll collect cash or pay based on where their tokens end up.
Monopoly Knockout is available at Walmart in the US now and lands in other retailers from January 1st 2024.
