Hasbro has announced Fourth Wing Monopoly, and it sounds like the perfect way to make romantasy lovers’ game nights more intense than the Threshing. If you’re a fan of Rebecca Yarros’ hit series — and fighting over the Boardwalk in Monopoly — this is merch you won’t want to miss out on.
Hasbro’s Monopoly Fourth Wing Edition will be out on July 15, and it’s already available for pre-order on Amazon. The game board will feature our favorite locations and dragons from The Empyrean Series. The tokens will also be based on the variously colored dragons from Fourth Wing, while the action cards call back to the Dragon Rider’s Codex and Book of Brennan.
The game is made for 2-6 players, and the board itself is as stunning as any special-edition book. And the packaging presents this Monopoly in the shape of a novel. The gold foil and other touches add to the appeal, making this a stunning product all around. Per a press release, here’s what players can expect:
“Players use Outposts and Strongholds to lay claim over locations, training every day to defeat opponents on the mat and earning as many Blades as possible. The last rider with Blades at the end wins!”

In addition to regular Monopoly, Hasbro is also releasing Monopoly Deal Fourth Wing Edition. That one hits shelves on July 15 as well and is also available for Amazon pre-order. While smaller and aimed at 2-5 players, it looks like a perfect choice for gaming on the go. Its description is as follows:
“Players use signet to gain a competitive advantage over other riders and protect locations and dragons to prove themselves as a bright young military strategist. Action cards are used to collect blades for a personal Armory, summon and swap properties – the first to collect 3 complete sets wins!”
Whether you’re a gamer or not, it’s incredible to see popular books getting merch like this. These additions to Hasbro’s lineup spotlight how popular Yarros’ series is. With any luck, we’ll see other titles picked up for similar products.
Fourth Wing Monopoly Highlights How Popular The Empyrean Series Really Is
The fact that Fourth Wing is getting its own Hasbro games marks a huge win for the romantasy series, highlighting how massive it really is. Between the recent Fourth Wing-themed sporting events and all the new merch emerging, it’s safe to say the story has cemented itself as a modern romantasy classic. And if these prove successful, there are so many more games that could be experimented with — and so many more books worthy of fun merch.
