Hasbro, a multinational toy and boardgame company, launched last September 9, 2009 the MONOPOLY City Streets. The online game was inspired by the latest game board MONOPOLY City. The creators wanted to bring the updated gameplay to life in a unique way and thus, a new online game was born. Within hours since it was launched, about 1.7 million players worldwide were eager to dominate the global real estate.

If you missed the opening day and with only few (uninteresting) blocks to buy, now you’ll have a chance to build your empire. The makers of MONOPOLY City Street restarted the game to address the bugs and slower servers. Some rule tweaks and gameplay improvements will also be observed.

To prepare for the restart, we will be taking down the game on THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17 at 15:00 GMT. We anticipate that the game will be down for 12 to 24 hours as we reset and test the game. When the site comes back live, the game will restart.
