Chess Ultra Arrives On Nintendo Switch This Week

Ripstone Games has announced that Chess Ultra is coming to Nintendo Switch on November 2, 2017 for $12.49 / £9.99 / €12.49.

Chess Ultra fully utilises the array of intuitive playing options on Nintendo Switch. Fans can play on the big screen with the console docked, in tabletop mode with the Pro Controller, and on the go in handheld mode using either the Joy-Con controllers or by taking advantage of full touch screen functionality.

Additional to this, the game also includes a unique way for two people to play the game in local multiplayer cross-table playing mode, whereby the console acts as the chess board. Place the console down between you and your opponent to play cross-table chess. Each player uses an individual Joy-Con controller to take their turn, and the game features an adaptive UI for cross-table play meaning you can focus on your strategy and enjoy the ultimate table top challenge.

Chess Ultra features stunning visuals, seamless online multiplayer and Grandmaster-approved AI that offers the ultimate chess experience. The game is cross-platform compatible so players on Nintendo Switch can play chess against players on PC and Xbox One.
