Chess Ultra is coming to Nintendo Switch

Ripstone has announced that not only are they releasing Ironcast to Nintendo Switch next week, but later this year, they will bring their second title and first inhouse developed to Switch, Chess Ultra.



“The team here at Ripstone are delighted to bring Chess Ultra to Nintendo Switch, it gives players a completely different, intuitive way to play the game. There’s a lot of lifelong Nintendo fans in the studio, and we love being able to support the console" states Matt Southern, Head of Development at Ripstone.

Players will get to play the game in stunning environments, as well as challenging 10 Grandmaster approved AI's and with over 80 chess puzzles to complete, there is always something different to do.

If that is not enough, the game also offers online multiplayer, so you can take your game to the world and see how you can really stack up. The game is already out on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, but no set release has been given for the Switch version, outside of 2017.
