Today, Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS) and Ubisoft(R) announced the Hasbro Game Channel -- a destination for family game entertainment on leading consoles, featuring games based on Hasbro's most popular brands, including MONOPOLY, RISK and TRIVIAL PURSUIT. Starting this fall, the Hasbro Game Channel will be available to download on Xbox One, video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PlayStation(R) 4 computer entertainment system. All games will also be available for download individually on the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation(R) 3 computer entertainment system.

Hasbro Game Channel is the destination for family game entertainment on consoles with new ways to play your favorite classics such as Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, Risk and more.

"We have worked closely with Ubisoft on the development of the Hasbro Game Channel, which will bring family and friends together for a fun and social gaming experience with their favorite brands," said Mark Blecher, senior vice president of digital gaming and corporate development for Hasbro. "The new console games will allow players to connect and play with others, not just in their living rooms, but around the world."

"We're bringing Hasbro's classic games to the digital age, capturing all the excitement and fun of these timeless games and building new ways to play them with the Hasbro Game Channel," said Chris Early, vice president of digital publishing, Ubisoft. "The new console experiences will offer a brand new channel with both familiar and new gameplay modes, various missions, achievements and rewards for endless fun with friends and family."

The first three brands available on the Hasbro Game Channel will be MONOPOLY, RISK and TRIVIAL PURSUIT, and will offer players a brand-new way to experience these classic brands.

MONOPOLY Plus -- MONOPOLY Plus brings the world's favorite family gaming brand to a new level with the original 2D MONOPOLY board as well as a colorful and lively animated 3D version that evolves as you progress in the game. MONOPOLY Plus lets players choose their favorite 'House Rules' to customize gameplay. Up to six players will be able to enjoy MONOPOLY Plus online or offline.

RISK -- Strategy fans will venture into stimulating modern warfare combat with RISK. Keeping the authenticity of the 2010 rules as the standard, RISK offers a new strategic experience with a familiar map layout optimized with modern armies, 3D tactical battlefields, configurable win conditions and rule variants. Online league play will allow players to compete with people from around the world.

TRIVIAL PURSUIT Live! -- Trivia fans can test their wits in this new take on the world's most well-known trivia game. TRIVIAL PURSUIT Live! transforms the classic experience into a TV-show setting with reinvented question formats, customizable game lengths and a variety of game rounds and rules to keep players guessing.

Hasbro Game Channel and all three introductory titles will be available to download worldwide starting this fall.

Don't see it being a success.

Sadly this type of thing would work better as f2p on smartphones.

More interested in this than EA access... but EA only has 1 game franchise i'm really interested in currently... Mass Effect
Family Game night is of a much higher interest for me personally
