The old reliable game of Chess is about to have quite the spin put onto it later this month as SouthPeak Games gets set to release Battle Vs Chess near the end of this month. For those of you who’ve been craving to play a game of this classic thinking game, your appetite will soon be satiated and when you get bored with playing the same rules over and over, Battle Vs Chess allows you to play the game with all new game modes.

One of the coolest game modes to be featured in the game is the ability to have actual hand-to-hand combat between pieces in play. Basically, instead of the advancing piece automatically taking the piece it attacked, users have the chance to defend themselves and battle for survival. It adds a very cool spin to the game and I’m actually looking forward to checking it out.

Features:

• A Challenge for Chess Players of all Levels: Uses the famous Fritz11! chess software, with 10 distinct levels of difficulty and leaderboard rankings which rate players using the same system as real-world official chess rankings.
• An Action Twist to a Classic Board Game: The innovative fusion of professional chess software and the deathmatch Battle Modes result in a strategic action experience unlike anything before
• Primed for Multiplayer Competition: Engage friends and foes via local head-to-head matches or online (select platforms only).
• Unique and Challenging Chess Puzzles: Various modes with set scenarios challenge players to complete games using limited turns, limited pieces and even replicate some of the most famous chess conundrums of real, historical matches.
• Non-traditional Game Options: Piece placement options on top of the standard system, like random placements in “Madness” mode or choose-your-own placements in “Tactic” mode allow players to engage in chess with just enough of a twist to add a new level of challenge to the traditional rules of the game.
