Mobile gaming fans, get ready for an exciting crossover! Monopoly Go is diving into the world of science fiction with a thrilling collaboration with Star Wars. Announced at the Star Wars Celebration in Japan, this event will run from May 1 to July 2 and draws inspiration from the iconic events of the Skywalker Saga and The Mandalorian.

During the Star Wars season on Monopoly Go, players will encounter beloved Star Wars characters transformed into adorable cartoon versions. The season introduces a Star Wars Go sticker album for you to fill, the chance to participate in podracing at the Mos Espa Grand Arena, and the opportunity to collect unique in-game items like tokens, shields, and emojis. Imagine the fun of seeing Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Princess Leia, Han Solo, R2D2, Yoda, Anakin Skywalker, and Qui-Gon Jinn mingling with Mr. Monopoly, also known as Rich Uncle Pennybags.

This isn't the first time Monopoly Go has embraced a crossover. Last September, the game featured a Marvel-themed event, where Spider-Man, Wolverine, and the Avengers joined the Monopoly world.

In other news, publisher Scopely has recently expanded its portfolio by acquiring the teams behind Pokémon GO, Pikmin Bloom, and Monster Hunter Now as part of a deal with Niantic.
