What is Anichess?
Anichess offers a different take on chess by introducing spells and other non-traditional elements, encouraging players to explore new strategies.
Since its launch in 2023, the Anichess platform has gained traction, reaching over 1,000,000 registered users, of which 150,000 play daily.
Yat Siu, co-founder and executive chairman of Animoca Brands, also noted: “With its popularity, accessibility and incredible strategic depth, chess is a classic game that has stood the test of time. One of the benefits of a game whose appeal is measured in centuries is the sophistication and passion of its community, and we are pleased that Anichess can present our new and updated interpretation of the Game of Kings in partnership with Chess.com.”
The platform continues to develop new content and engage with its growing user base, and plans to launch a player-versus-player (PvP) mode in the second quarter of 2024 to expand its offering.
Anichess is free to access online and more information is available on the website and social media platforms.
