Top Trumps USA has announced that the official MONOPOLY: New Orleans Edition will debut in November 2027. Operating under a license from Hasbro, the American division of Winning Moves International is inviting the public, along with local businesses and nonprofit organizations, to submit recommendations for the landmarks, community staples, and commercial spots that will populate the upcoming board.
The upcoming custom board game will swap out the classic Atlantic City properties—ranging from Boardwalk down to Park Place—to reflect the culture and geography of the Big Easy. Alongside personalized board squares, the release will feature tailored Community Chest and Chance playing cards, as well as customized Monopoly Money designed to capture the local spirit of Louisiana’s largest city.
Public and Business Submissions Open for Board Squares
To ensure the game accurately reflects the region, representatives are actively collecting public feedback. Sarah Bowman, a spokesperson for Top Trumps, noted the community-driven approach behind the project.
New Orleans is such a unique community with rich history and culture. We aim to ensure that MONOPOLY: New Orleans Edition is an accurate portrayal of what locals and tourists love about this charming city,
Bowman said. From beloved restaurants to historic New Orleans staples, we would love for everyone to get on board and send us recommendations of their favorite organizations and landmarks around town.
For local enterprises and charitable groups, the project offers a permanent placement on the board. Organizations interested in securing a spot or submitting ideas can reach out directly via email at [email protected] for consideration.
Retail Rollout and Availability
When the MONOPOLY: New Orleans Edition officially launches in November 2027, it will be distributed widely both in physical storefronts and online channels. Confirmed major retail partners carrying the game will include Barnes & Noble and Amazon, alongside select neighborhood retail shops across the New Orleans area.
Top Trumps USA is recognized across the North American market for producing officially licensed, localized city experience editions of the classic board game, which celebrate regional landmarks and community identities. The parent company, Hasbro, brings decades of entertainment and toy manufacturing expertise to the collaboration, maintaining a portfolio that reaches over 1 billion fans worldwide through physical games, digital platforms, and consumer products.
Timeline to the November 2027 Release
As the development cycle progresses toward the scheduled November 2027 release date, public submissions will guide the final layout of the board squares, community cards, and monetary designs. Additional announcements regarding specific property reveals and featured local partners are expected to be released by Top Trumps USA closer to the launch window.
