Nintendo and Bayohasbro are teaming up for Monopoly Gamer, a new spin on Monopolythat brings the characters of Super Mariointo the classic board game with a few new Mario-themed twists.

On top of replacing the classic player pieces with Mario, Peach, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong, Monopoly Gamerchanges up some of Monopoly's rules by introducing boss fights and character powers.

Instead of collecting all the money in the game to win (or in Monopoly Gamer, collecting the coins), players need to beat levels (a.k.a. collect properties) and defeat bosses to earn points.

The dice will even work differently, with its own Mario spin. One die decides how many spaces you move and another die decides what ability you can use, like causing other players to drop coins on the board.
