Join us below as we walk through some of the biggest pros and cons behind the Monopoly Fortnite Edition.
Pros
Fortnite fans are sure to love the eye-catching design of the gameboard. A brilliant blue, the board includes several of the hottest locations from the Fortnite Universe.
Along with its cards and character outfits, this board game works both as something to play—and as a collector’s item.
The high number of character outfits means that everyone gets an opportunity to play as their favorite.
Perhaps the strongest feature behind the game is its ability to adapt the Fortnite world to a board-game format.
The engaging battle format proves an incredible departure from the game’s traditional format. All players can enjoy a fresh new experience. This provides new challenges that will keep even the most experienced of Monopoly players engaged.
And because it perfectly incorporates the Fortnite universe, even the most hardcore of video game players will enjoy this classic board game format.
This perfect blend really takes the Monopoly Fortnite Edition Boardgame to the next level—and is sure to make it a favorite of both series for years to come.
Cons
There’s not much to complain about with this incredible board game.
In a way, however, its biggest strength may also be one of its largest weaknesses.
While we believe the game perfectly blends both the digital aspect of Fortnite with the board game format of Monopoly, it’s a fine line to draw.
Because the game targets such a stark middle ground, it’s possible that some fans of both series won’t be able to appreciate the gameplay.
Hardcore Monopoly fans, for instance, may enjoy the game more as a collector’s item than as a true game to play.
Fortnite fans, however, may find it hard to adapt to the game’s non-digital format. Even though the world is uniquely captured and brought to life, the game may serve a smaller niche audience.
In a way, it seems the game proves best for a niche market of Fortnite fans.
But of course, this in no way diminishes the several pros this new classic features.
