Family Game Night With XBOX & Monopoly
Last Updated on October 7, 2020 by Janell
My kids love to play board games together. But when you have little ones who want to see what is going on they tend to make a mess of the game. My kids received a really fun Monopoly game for Christmas, but when we are playing, my daughter likes to steal some of their money and move their pieces around.
That can get really annoying when we are trying to have "Family Game Night". Family Game Night is supposed to be filled with fun and lots of laughter - but in our house we cannot even finish the game.
So our new Family Game Night will include new Hasbro games we can play on our Xbox One! My daughter can't steal their money but she can play with us and we call have lots of fun together.
Our lives are busy, so I really want us to create a time that our kids look forward to each week. It will be night when we close our laptops and put away our cell phones to have a distraction free night of fun as a family.
The Hasbro Game Channel has some of the best family game entertainment on leading game consoles. You can find popular Hasbro Games like Monopoly, Rist and Trivial Pursuit.
This fall, the Hasbro Game Channel will be available to download on Xbox One, video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system. All games will also be available for download individually on the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system.
We had a chance to play Monopoly Plus on the Xbox One. It looks incredible on the screen! The game has the original 2D Monopoly board and a colorful and lively animated 3D version that evolves as you progress in the game. Monopoly Plus lets the players choose their favorite ‘House Rules' to customize gameplay. Up to six players will be able to enjoy Monopoly Plus online or offline.
So now our family can enjoy Family Game Night. You know what else I love about this - no set up and clean up! We can start playing and not have to get everything set up on the table before we can begin. With smaller kids in the house we tend to lose some pieces - so this really is the best way for us to play games!
Do you have a Family Game Night? What are your favorite games to play?
I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls and the content and opinions expressed here are all my own.
I have an xbox, and I have to say I would play this in a heartbeat. It would be great for my friends and I as we all love our gaming systems.
We don't have an xbox, but my boys love the Monopoly board game. It's one of their favorites.
We used to play our xbox all the time. We have fun doing it as a family!
We play the Monopoly video game all the time. It's our favorite because we don't have to pull out the board, distribute and track the cash and all the other tedious stuff that comes with playing a board game. I wish all board games would be converted this way, at least the Monopoly, Payday, Life type games. They do have "Family Game Night" video games which have a lot of the classics.
I never knew Monopoly was available on XBOX, This is awesome. My kids are a huge fan of Monopoly
Wow - that would be soooo much fun - maybe when I retire - 'cause my son is all grown up - but... we played Monopoly, checkers, chess, scrabble, uno - and lots of cards - great memory makers
xbox monopoly??? are you serious - my family, particularly my daughter would love this! So getting it.
What a great idea to play such a classic on the Xbox, it would make it far easier to manage as well!
I don't know why I didn't imagine that Monopoly could be a video game. We don't play them often, even though I do have an xBox. I might have to check this out.
We don't have the xbox but we love monopoly at our house it and monopoly junior are played often!
I played monopoly about three years ago. I need to get back into family game night with board games
This is such a cool new way to play this game!
It will be on other game systems soon.
It is so much easier to play this way!
The graphics are incredible for a board game!
I know!! Isn't this going to make it so much easier to have family game night!
I know - it is so cool. They will have a few different games available soon.
I totally agree - I hated to count out all the money.
It will be on other game systems soon.
This sounds like so much fun! We always manage to lose pieces and parts of our board games so this would be perfect. Great post!
We LOVE Monopoly! I have to tell my husband about this game. He will love adding it to our collection.
We love playing Monopoly as a family. This would be a fun way to play and bond!
I love monopoly. It's one of those games I will always love because I loved it as a child.
I love this game! My kids enjoy it too, makes a great game night
Oh wow, I wish they had this on PSN. My middle child adores Monopoly. He would love this.
Monopoly was my favorite game when I was a child. In fact I loved all Hasbro games.
Monopoly sure has come a long way! I love that you can play it on Xbox now!
Is it sad that I've never played Monopoly before? There's a first for everything 😛
My two all time favorite games are Scrabble and Monopoly. I just love playing Monopoly and how it took forever to end the game. Over the years I learned that everyone you played with had their own set of house rules. We have a PS3 and we use that in the living room for streaming television, too. My husband cleaned up her PS2 and found a ton of games for it for next to nothing. One of them, Monopoly. Good times gone digital.
I had no idea that you could play Monopoly on the xbox. What a fun twist to family game night!
We love family game night. Right now we play apples to apples a lot.
Genius! This looks like so much fun!
We have family movie night but I have been thinking about switching it up.
