Ubisoft has announced a brief delay for Monopoly: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains, moving the game's release to June 30, 2026.
The announcement updates an earlier June launch window and follows the developer's recent world premiere and gameplay trailers released ahead of Star Wars Day.
The title is developed and published by Ubisoft and is slated for release across all platforms, with Nintendo Switch referenced in promotional materials.
Revised launch details
Ubisoft issued a concise update confirming the new release date: the game will now launch on June 30, 2026 across all platforms.
The publisher thanked fans for their patience and said it looks forward to sharing the finished game.
Previously, Ubisoft's promotional materials listed a June 11, 2026 release for Switch hardware (noted in messaging as "Switch 1 and 2").
What the trailers revealed
Ahead of Star Wars Day, Ubisoft published both a world premiere trailer and a dedicated gameplay trailer that outline the reimagined Monopoly experience.
The company described a cinematic, themed board built from iconic Star Wars locations and new mechanics intended to modernize the classic board game formula.
Key verified gameplay features (per Ubisoft's PR):
- 28 playable Star Wars characters to choose from
- 14 unique character abilities that can affect match outcomes
- Dice battles triggered when players land on the same space to determine control of a location
- 22 locations rendered as unique 3D dioramas spanning Star Wars eras, including Ewok Village, the Sandcrawler, Echo Base, and the Jedi Temple
- 2v2 and 3v3 multiplayer modes supporting local couch co-op and online play
- In-game missions and rewards integrated into matches
What remains official and what to watch for
Ubisoft has confirmed the June 30 date and the gameplay features listed above.
The publisher has not issued additional platform-specific storefront details beyond confirming the title will release on all platforms; information about digital availability on the Nintendo eShop or timing for pre-orders has not been specified in the company's statement.
We will monitor Ubisoft's channels for further updates, including any details on platform-specific releases, eShop listings, and post-launch support.
For now, fans can expect Monopoly: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains to arrive on June 30, 2026.
