Metallica have hinted plans to release their own game of Monopoly next week.

The group have posted a picture of the board game's box on metallica.com, with the message: “Next week.”

No other details are known about the game, but if confirmed, Metallica will join an illustrious line-up of music acts with their own customised versions of Monopoly.

The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Kiss versions of Monopoly have all previously been released.

Meanwhile, Metallica will play next month's Sonisphere festival as part of the Big Four, which also includes Slayer, Anthrax and Megadeath.
