In celebration of the MONOPOLY brand's 80th anniversary, Hasbro Inc. has teamed up with social news and entertainment company BuzzFeed to ask fans to choose which great cities around the world will be featured as property spaces in the new MONOPOLY HERE & NOW: World Edition game launching soon.

Powered by BuzzFeed, the MONOPOLY HERE & NOW property space vote, including a special Wild Card Week, has started on the Vote MONOPOLY website.

Until Wednesday, 4 March, fans can pick from a list of global destinations that will be featured in the MONOPOLY HERE & NOW: World Edition game to be sold globally later this year.

From London to Cape Town, fans can rally behind their beloved hometowns, favorite vacation spots and cities on their travel bucket lists by sharing the vote on Facebook and Twitter using the hashtag #VoteMONOPOLY. Fans can aslo engage with fun BuzzFeed content featuring the cities in the vote.

People can also vote for the top American cities for the MONOPOLY HERE & NOW: US Edition game to be sold only in the U.S.

From Tuesday, 3 to Monday, 9 March, all cities, big and small, will have the chance to compete for two spaces on the MONOPOLY HERE & NOW game boards during Wild Card Week. Fans can suggest additional locations that are not included in the initial list of destinations, and the cities with the most submissions during the week will be featured as the two brown property spaces in the new game.

"We are thrilled to be teaming up with BuzzFeed, as one of the leading social news and entertainment sites, to bring our fans an exciting way to choose the cities that will be featured in the new MONOPOLY HERE & NOW game," said Jonathan Berkowitz, vice president of global marketing for gaming at Hasbro. "This innovative campaign demonstrates how we continue to keep the MONOPOLY brand relevant by empowering our fans to help create today's game."

The final list of cities that will be featured in the MONOPOLY HERE & NOW games will be announced on Thursday, 19 March, also known as World MONOPOLY Day. It is also the MONOPOLY brand's official birthday.

The MONOPOLY HERE & NOW: World Edition game will be available later this year and will feature iconic landmark tokens. It will also include new gameplay where players race around the board to visit as many locations as possible, collecting passport stamps along the way. Players will collect cash from visitor fees when opponents land on their locations and the first player to fill their passport wins.
