Now There's a 'Brainrot' Monopoly Game

Just in time for 6/7, game-maker Hasbro has announced the imminent release of a brainrot version of Monopoly. Dubbed “Brainrot Billionaire,” the game features properties with names like “Unc Place” and “Cooked Courtyard” in place of Boardwalk and Vermont Avenue, and “Slop” and “Chat” cards to replace Chance and Community Chest, because kids love cardboard versions of TikTok trends.

More than a re-skinned version of an old game, Brainrot Billionaire features fewer spaces and simplified rules that even the most brain-rotted among us can comprehend. The game comes out in August and will retail for $19.95, but you can pre-order starting today through Walmart.

This is not the first generational Monopoly game

Hasbro has tried to meme itself into the wallets of the younger generation before. I'm sure you all still play "Monopoly for Millennials," the version of the game Hasbro released in 2018, where the goal is not to collect money and crush your rivals with the power of capitalism, but to collect experiences by doing Millennial things like going to a music festival or meditation retreat.

There are more versions of Monopoly than you know

Since the original game was released in 1935, countless versions of Monopoly have been released. Hasbro licenses the Monopoly name to external companies and prints custom versions for corporations, so there's no way to know how many variants of the game actually exist. The community-curated Monopoly Wiki's List of Monopoly Games documents well over 1,000 versions, including Monopoly Socialism Edition, if you want to work together for the common good, the David Bowie Edition, because it's what he would have wanted, and three distinct variants of Monopoly based on Garfield. If you only count Monopolies that alter the core rules of the game (like Monopoly Cheaters Edition), there are 200 to 300 official variants put out by Hasbro.
