Monopoly GO Swap Packs: A Guide to Trading and Acquisition
Monopoly GO's Swap Packs add a layer of excitement to sticker collecting. This guide explains how Swap Packs function and how to obtain more. Recent updates have made acquiring these packs easier and more strategic.
How Swap Packs Work
Swap Packs allow you to exchange unwanted stickers for new ones. Each pack contains four stickers (typically one 5-star, two 4-star, and one 3-star). Before claiming, you can swap up to three stickers. Swapping provides a random replacement sticker of the same rarity as the one swapped. While not guaranteeing better stickers, it offers greater control over your collection. Remember, trading duplicates with friends remains a viable option.
Acquiring More Swap Packs
Originally a milestone reward in the Peg-E Sticker Drop, Swap Packs are now obtainable through several avenues:
The Gold Vault
The Gold Vault, accessible in the "Stickers for Rewards" section, offers the most consistent Swap Pack acquisition method. Currently priced at 700 Stars (a reduction from the previous 1000), it's opened daily. Stars are earned by collecting duplicate stickers, regardless of rarity. The Gold Vault's contents include:
- 500 Dice
- One Blue Sticker Pack (four stickers, one guaranteed 4-star)
- One Purple Sticker Pack (six stickers, one guaranteed 5-star)
- One Swap Pack
Minigames and Events
Participating in various minigames, including Peg-E games, Treasure Hunts, and Partner Events, frequently presents Swap Packs as milestone rewards. Completing challenges or reaching specific milestones within these minigames increases your chances of earning them. Active participation in all available minigames is key.
