Will Ferrell Returns as Mr. Monopoly in a Nostalgic 90s Sitcom-Style Ad for Monopoly Go

Monopoly Go might just be trying to mess with my head, or maybe it’s just the nostalgia creeping in. So, they’ve rolled out this ad campaign that’s throwing me back to those days of TV dinners and side-splitting sitcoms. It’s called The Dice Life. A bit on the nose, eh? But, hey, it’s got Will Ferrell doing his thing as Mr. Monopoly. Can’t decide if it’s pure genius or just… kinda bizarre seeing him pop up like that.

And all this comes from Omelet, the brains behind it with Monopoly Go developers Scopely. They’ve crafted this love note to 90s TV, complete with a catchy theme song. I swear, the nostalgia’s palpable. Jake Johnson and Sunita Mani are there too, adding a bit of their own flair. Kinda feels like the drama from those game nights with the fam — you know, when someone flipped the board ’cause they landed on Boardwalk with hotels. Or was that just at my house?

The game’s also vibing with some Marvel mojo — yep, Fantastic Four style. July 13 marks the start of this crossover party, bringing all these iconic characters and places into the mix. New mini-games, events, collectibles, and this Partners Event thing. Honestly, it’s a lot, and maybe I’m keeping up, or maybe not? And I’m still waiting to hear about the next Treasures Event. The last one was in June, and I can’t keep track!

Oh, and if you’re into this stuff, there’s some scoop on those free July Monopoly Go Dice Links. Take it or leave it. But yeah, their summer’s hopping, no doubt.
