McDonald’s has confirmed that Monopoly will return this autumn, with even bigger prizes.
The fast food chain confirmed Monopoly will start in either September or October – and customers will have more chances to win.

McDonald’s is yet to confirm an exact date, but a spokesman said the price pool will be “bigger than ever”.
Details of the prizes will be revealed closer to the launch date.
The popular game usually takes place in March, but McDonald’s said it wanted to allow customers the chance to win through its app, as well as online via sticker, as part of MyMcDonald’s Rewards.
Earlier this month, McDonald’s launched a Rewards programme offering customers one point for every penny spent through its app.
A spokesman for the fast food giant said: “We hope you love our new rewards scheme as much as you love our popular Monopoly promotion, which will return later in the summer with an even bigger prize pool and increased chances of winning.”
The chain has also revealed it is to hike menu prices including fan favourite the 99p cheeseburger as the cost of living crisis begins to take its toll.
It will be adding up to 20p to a number of menu items.
The announcement comes on the same day that Maccies launches some major menu changes including the introduction of halloumi fries.

How does McDonald’s Monopoly work?
McDonald’s launched the competition in 2005 and it works in a similar way to the classic Monopoly board game.
Customers collect game pieces when they buy qualifying McDonald’s products, such as colour co-ordinated road names or train stations.
You’ll be able to find them as stickers which will appear on the packaging of your food.
Each piece represents a tile on the board which you can pick up for free in the restaurant or play along online.
When you collect a set, you get a prize, and there are also “instant wins” which allow you to claim your goodies right away.
