''[[Risk II]]'' for PC and Mac was released as a 2000 video game which includes classic ''Risk'' as well as board and gameplay variations. In 2010, [[Pogo.com]] added a licensed version of ''Risk'' to its library of online games. An [[Xbox Live Arcade]] version of ''Risk'' called ''[[Risk: Factions]]'' was released on June 23, 2010. It includes classic ''Risk'' as well as a factions mode where players can play as Zombies, Robots, Cats, Soldiers, or Yetis. As of August 6, 2014, Hasbro and Ubisoft produced a new game for ''Risk'' on PS4 and Xbox One, as well as Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/06/ubisoft-announces-hasbro-game-channel |title=Ubisoft announces Hasbro Game Channel |last=Paxton-Gillilan |first=Rachel |date=6 August 2014 |access-date=2014-08-11 |archive-date=10 August 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140810194653/http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/06/ubisoft-announces-hasbro-game-channel |url-status=live }}</ref> The game, developed by [[Zoë Mode]] and published by Ubisoft, was released in February 2015.
