To mark the iconic board game's 80th anniversary, many cities have been crowned with spots on the 'Here and Now

The game, which will be available to the public in September, works a little differently this time around as instead of racing to buy real estate, players must visit as many locations as possible, where they will collect passport stamps along the journey, News.com.au reported.

Instead of paying rent, visitors who land on spots they don't "own" must pay "visitor fees" and the first player to fill their passport wins.

MONOPOLY HERE and NOW: World Edition winners are:

Dark Blue: Lima, Peru; Hong Kong, China

Green: Riga, Latvia; Lisbon, Portugal; Istanbul, Turkey

Yellow: Warsaw, Poland; Mexico City, Mexico; Santiago, Chile

Red: Belfast, Ireland; Athens, Greece; Belgrade, Serbia

Orange: London, England; Moscow, Russia; Tokyo, Japan

Magenta: New York, USA; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Sydney, Australia

Light Blue: Queenstown, New Zealand; Cape Town, South Africa; Taipei, Taiwan

Brown: Giethoorn, Netherlands; Madrid, Spain (the Wildcard winners).
