The Monopoly Luxury Edition reinvents the design of the [iconic board game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monopoly-expansion-packs) with a focus on extravagance. Meant to be a grand leap over the regular cardboard variant, the Monopoly Luxury Edition comes with polished wood embellishments, a [gold carved game path](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rollsroyce-chess-set), and a series of other upgrades. In addition to the luxe gameboard, the extravagant monopoly set also comes in a gorgeous wood cabinet with burled veneer panels, decorative metal plaques, and a recessed faux leather rolling area.

Also featured on the board is two grand drawers. These drawers showcase exclusive die-cast handles and built-in storage. The drawers hide the majority of the game pieces, which include plated die-cast [Monopoly tokens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monopoly-90th), houses and hotels, title deed cards, community chest cards, and custom designed Monopoly money.
