A game page for
Monopoly Here & Now: The World Edition has cropped up on the
N-Gage website, pointing to its imminent arrival.
If you're wondering about the
Here & Now: World Edition bit, that just means that it's a modern take on the game, with major world cities in place of Old Kent Road and co.
As you travel you pick up interesting snippets of information, so kids can learn about the world whilst simultaneously bringing financial ruin to their parents. Just like real life, really.
From the look of it the game will be very similar to the
mobile version, which we reviewed back in September. EA's take on the classic boardgame tends to be polished to a shine and very accessible indeed, so we're hopeful of a worthwhile boardgame conversion.
There's no news of any N-Gage-specific features or enhancements yet, but we'll know more around the time of its release.
