Summary
Scopely has limited the number of devices aMonopoly GOplayer can use their account on, with one account seemingly tied to one platform. While someMonopoly GOgamers have experienced the game on different mobile hardware, their account may be limited to a single location.
When Scopely releasedMonopoly GO, it raised the bar for the studio by reaching a massive audience and earning impressive revenue. Two key reasons that players regularly return toMonopoly GOare the limited-time events and daily rewards. Among the existing lineup of events areMonopoly GO’s Sticker Boom, Peg-E, Tycoon Racers, Fortune Countdown, and more. Beyond these events, the game also gets collaborations, the most popular of which has been Marvel. Although some players may have experienced these events and collaborations using multiple devices, a new pop-up warning suggests that this is coming to an end.
Monopoly GOplayers have spotted a pop-up warning message stating that multiple devices have been detected using one account. In the text box,Monopoly GOrecommends that players tap OK to reload and continue using their account on one device, or close the app to remain active on the other. According to the announcement, this change is for security reasons, and gameplay will be halted on the device until a choice is made. This implies that eachMonopoly GOaccountis now tied to one smartphone or tablet, meaning people with multiple devices with the app downloaded may have to create multiple accounts to continue playing.
This Message May Interrupt Monopoly GO Gameplay
While this warning may help players discover if their account has been hacked, some gamers may wish to switch from their smartphone to a tablet, or vice versa. The security measure may also help mitigate any potential cheating in the game where an account may be able to hop between two devices to get optimal rewards forMonopoly GOdice rollsor wheel spins. As the pop-up message leaves the choice up to the player, they can decide which device to lock their account on. While it may limit when and how some gamers experience the game, it’s unclear if there’s any benefit to being locked to one device or if the only tangible benefit is account security.
AsScopely continues to updateMonopoly GO, this security measure may be less restrictive in the future or removed in favor of an alternate solution. BecauseMonopoly GOhas reached over 150 million downloads, many players may be affected by this change.
