Nope.

Monopoly = Hasbro/Parker Brothers
The game of life = Hasbro
Battlefield, that's the one that looks like Stratego? https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/28784/battlefield
Description
Battlefield is a Chinese Stratego rip-off, but with some differences. For a start, each player has 44 pieces instead of 40. There are half a dozen unit count differences, plus a different rank name. Additionally, instead of lower rank number defining victory, the piece with the highest points wins.
Stratego = Jumbo Games
Trouble = Hasbro
Sorry! = Parker Brothers

Those big publishers such as Hasbro won't come to an agreement with BGA to provide a licence for adaptation.

You can ask Hasbro if they would agree to add these games to BGA. That's the only to have a licence, that players convince Hasbro.
