NextImg:Game changer! Monopoly has new ‘Queens Edition’ with the borough’s iconic landmarks

Pass go — and hop on the 7 train?

The classic board game Monopoly is rolling out a new “Queens Edition” with the borough’s iconic landmarks replacing standard Atlantic-city-inspired spaces such as “Boardwalk” and “Park Place.”

Players will be able to buy, sell, and trade famous businesses, non-profits and neighborhoods in the “World’s Borough” when the game hits the shelves Oct. 5, according to Top Trumps USA, which teamed up with Hasbro on the new iteration.

And just like real life, folks from the outer borough can be over-taxed and tossed in jail.

The new game will is expected to feature Rockaway Beach and the 7 train. Pictured is a Paris-themed version of the game. M.studio – stock.adobe.com

Earlier this year, the game-makers asked Queens residents to vote on which sites they want featured — but the firms haven’t said yet which ones made the cut.

Rockaway Beach, Queens Center Mall and the 7 train are expected to light up the board.

“Whether you’ve ridden the 7 train, crossed the iconic bridges, or flown into one of the city’s bustling airports, what matters is you’ve arrived in the world’s borough! In this exciting twist on the classic game, you’ll have the chance to buy up beloved landmarks and explore all the unique treasures Queens has to offer,” Top Trumps USA said in a statement.

Monopoly has in recent years released a “Cape Cod” “Slo Cal” and “Lake Tahoe” editions of the game.

The game-makers haven’t said why they opted to spotlight Queens instead of other Big Apple boroughs such Manhattan or Brooklyn.

Monopoly Queens Edition will be unveiled at the Queens Center Mall on Oct. 5 at an event featuring game trivia, prizes and photo ops with props.

Hasbro didn’t immediately return an inquiry from The Post Friday.
