China & Hong Kong

China: 4 editions including a Here and Now: China edition, a China edition, a special Beijing edition released during the 2008 Olympics as well as a Hong Kong Monopoly edition.

In Chinese-speaking regions (including Hong Kong), the first name in Chinese was 財源廣進 (lit. financial resources) (in 1965), and the second (in 1973) was 大富翁 (lit. rich person), but both of these were unauthorized clones of the original. Hasbro eventually designated an official Chinese title: 地產大亨 (lit. Real Estate Tycoon). Many Monopoly game sets were relabeled as a result. However, the Hong Kong version remains officially branded as 大富翁.

Despite this, many Monopoly clones still use the old Chinese name. When Chinese developers started making computerized versions of Monopoly clones, they diverged from the original in board layout and game rules, but the key elements of dice rolls and land acquisitions remain.

In the mid-1990s, Monopoly was sold in Mainland China under a different name (强手棋), which does not have localized place names.

India India edition – called Business (English version) and Vyapar (Hindi version), using major Indian cities, airports and railway stations and Indian rupee for currency.
