Monopoly With Voice-Controlled Banking is Available to Pre-Order Now

Monopoly Voice Banking edition promises to be one of the most exciting variants on the classic board game that Hasbro has ever released. In this version, Rich Uncle Pennybags (Mr. Monopoly) will manage your money, facilitate real estate transactions, pay rent, draw Chance cards, and more – all with voice commands. The game doesn’t even include physical cash.

Basically, Monopoly Voice Banking has its own Alexa-esque AI that should serve to make the game faster and prevent cheating. Plus, it doesn’t connect to the Internet, so you don’t have to worry about spies at Hasbro listening to you say horrible things to your family in a rage. If you’re interested, you might want to jump on the pre-orders before the rush. You can grab it right now on Amazon for $29.99 with shipping slated for June 26th. If it sells out, you can pre-order right here via Walmart with a release date set for July 1st.

The only question is, how well will the voice control features work? Since Monopoly Voice Banking completely relies on the system, one would have to assume Hasbro feels pretty confident with it. Fortunately, the game isn’t much more expensive than the standard Monopoly, so it won’t cost you a fortune to try it out. Additional details about the features of the game can be found in the official description below:
