Aristocrat Gaming has marked the official European debut of Monopoly Big Board Bucks™, launching the title at Société des Bains de Mer’s Le Casino de Monte-Carlo just days after its North American release.

The rollout represents the first time Aristocrat Gaming has executed a near-simultaneous transatlantic launch, highlighting the global momentum behind the new title. The Monte-Carlo debut included a month-long Monopoly Big Board Bucks-themed Atrium installation, promotional events, live performances and a formal unveiling for guests.

Monopoly Big Board Bucks is the first game released under Aristocrat Gaming’s newly awarded multi-year licensing agreement with Hasbro. The title blends the classic elements of the Monopoly brand with Aristocrat’s gaming technology, incorporating familiar features such as player-selectable tokens, Mr. Monopoly, Free Parking, houses and hotels, and the iconic game board.

Available on The Baron™ Portrait cabinet, the game introduces triple metamorphic gameplay through Extra Spins, Extra Properties and Extra Houses. These features can trigger the Big Board Bucks Bonus, where players have the opportunity to activate rewards across the game board, including money bags, properties, houses, hotels, Free Parking and the GO Jackpot Wheel.

“The launch of Monopoly Big Board Bucks marks a significant milestone for Aristocrat Gaming,” said Craig Toner, CEO of Aristocrat Gaming. “We’ve reimagined one of the world’s most iconic brands through innovation that only Aristocrat Gaming can deliver and brought it to players across two continents within days. The team at Le Casino de Monte-Carlo delivered a truly premium debut, and we look forward to building on this momentum across Europe.”

“We are proud to serve as the European launch partner for Monopoly Big Board Bucks, bringing this highly anticipated title to players at Le Casino de Monte-Carlo,” said Cédric Lorenzi, Executive Vice President of Le Casino de Monte-Carlo. “Aristocrat Gaming has delivered an experience that honors one of the world’s most iconic brands while introducing innovation that resonates with today’s players. Launching this game in Monte-Carlo reflects our shared commitment to excellence, global leadership, and unforgettable player experiences.”
