Pawtucket, R.I. (April 21, 2008) – Recognizing the increasing importance of renewable energy sources around the world, MONOPOLY announces that it will feature “Wind Energy” and “Solar Energy” as the utilities in the upcoming MONOPOLY Here & Now: The World Edition game. The new utilities will replace the “Water Works” and “Electric Company” spaces that traditionally appear on the MONOPOLY game board.
“When creating this first-ever worldwide MONOPOLY game board, we reviewed all elements of the game to ensure that it reflects today’s global perspective. This included the utility property spaces,” said Phil Jackson, Group Executive, Hasbro Games. “In a nod to the efforts of countries worldwide to increase the effectiveness and availability of renewable energy sources, we decided to feature Solar Energy and Wind Energy on the game board.”
