Baby Yoda-themed Monopoly now exists and the excitement is real

Baby Yoda-themed Monopoly now exists and the excitement is real.

Over the years, there have been countless – and we mean countless – versions of the classic board game. But lets face it: this is definitely the best of them.

Or, at the very least, the most adorable version of Monopoly yet.

Hasbro announced the newest edition of Monopoly earlier this month to coincide with Star Wars Day (May the 4th, FYI). 

The game is for two to four players, with each token representing Baby Yoda – or The Child, if we’re going to use his real name – in different poses: eating a frog, using the force, drinking a cup of broth, and sitting in the Hoverpram. 

The board features places and objects from The Mandalorian, including Tracking FOB, Razor Crest Cockpit, and Razor Crest Storage Bay.

Players move around the board to try and buy and trade objects from The Child’s adventures. You’re also able to buy Hideouts – or even pay to upgrade them to Common Houses. 

It includes gameboard, 4 cardboard tokens with pawn stands, 18 Title Deed cards, 16 Bounty Puck cards, 16 Camtono cards, 32 plastic hideouts, 12 plastic common houses, 12 dice, money pack, and game guide.

Now for the downside. 

The game is due to be released in the United States as of September 1. However, we haven’t found anywhere that has it available for pre-order in Ireland just yet. 

We’ll keep you posted when (and if) we do.
