About the Game

40-player real-time chess battle royale on a massive chessboard. Outplay enemies with chess tactics and game-changing ability kits. Master the chaos as the storm closes in to be the last King standing!

Real-time chess tactics

The same pieces as classic chess, but they move in real-time. Master tactical positioning and timing. Fork, check, and pin, but also dodge, bait, and weave. Attack and defend, but with multiple pieces at once

Champion ability kits

Play as a chess champion with game-changing abilities, wreaking destruction, chaos, deception, or control on the battlefield. Ability depth multiplies with chess tactics to create an unreachable skill ceiling

Battle royale chaos

Embrace chess with a competitive battle royale twist. 40 Kings start on a massive map. Grow stronger by defeating other players and PvE challenges. Fights erupt unpredictably, ranging from 1v1 duels to 5-man brawls. The storm gradually tightens the space, forcing epic conflicts that leave only 1 player as the last King standing
