Move over Mayfair
Mayfair is just one of a host of casualties in the latest version of the classic board game Monopoly.
'Kensington Palace Gardens' is now the most prestigious property around the Monopoly board after recently being named the most expensive area for property in Britain.
Will and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, will shortly become residents of the exclusive area of West London and the move means the board game remains up to date with real life property prices.
The shift from Mayfair to Kensington does not come as the only change to the game as it also includes an added bonus of receiving £2m when passing GO, rather than £2000.
In fact, there's a whole host of changes to the latest edition, including the addition of London's airports:
