Ubisoft and developer Behavior Interactive today released the launch trailer for Monopoly: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains, confirming the team-based reimagining of the classic board game is now available on Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop and at retail after a short delay.
The release brings a Star Wars-themed competitive twist to Monopoly, emphasizing team play, tactical objectives, and cinematic set pieces.
According to Ubisoft’s announcement, the game moves away from traditional Monopoly mechanics and instead uses Influence Points to determine victory.
Players earn Influence Points by purchasing and upgrading properties; dynamic GO Events can rapidly change the score by awarding or deducting large amounts of Influence, and a new Battle System triggers dice-based challenges when opposing players land on the same tile with control of a location at stake.
Behavior Interactive’s version transports players through the Star Wars galaxy with 22 iconic locations spanning multiple eras and a roster of 28 heroes and villains.
Each character has one of 14 unique abilities, which are designed to encourage coordinated plays in competitive formats.
The title supports online and couch co-op competitive modes, including 2v2 and 3v3 matches, emphasizing teamwork and strategic coordination across each match.
The game also features special tiles and scripted cinematic moments intended to punctuate pivotal turns.
Rewriting Ubisoft’s core message for clarity: the publisher stated that the launch trailer is now live and that the team-based Monopoly variant has arrived following a brief delay, inviting players to experience Monopoly retooled for multiplayer, Star Wars-flavored competition.
Monopoly: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains is listed on the Nintendo eShop and available at retail outlets for Nintendo Switch owners.
The launch trailer provides the first extended look at the game’s presentation, character roster, and the altered rule set focused on Influence Points and team battles.
For Nintendo Switch players tracking new releases and Switch 2 coverage, the title represents a notable licensed entry that blends board-game mechanics with action-oriented multiplayer.
With Behavior Interactive’s development pedigree and Ubisoft’s publishing reach, the game is now positioned for players interested in fast, competitive, team-based board-game adaptations on the Nintendo Switch platform.
