NEW IN CHESSBASE ’26:
Opening report
- Club players need statistics that are different from top players. Prepare for your level, not for GMs. Opening books reflect main stream theory and often suggest lines that are not practical for normal players.
- Top players instantly see the latest fashion and the statistics for various move orders.
- Understand the typical variations with their strategic themes and frequent plans.
- Train by looking at selected instructive games.
- Solve the typical tactical motives - this is revolutionary for opening training and great fun.
More power with remote engine
now with 4 CPUs – free with a ChessBase Premium Account – and much more.*
New Reference filters
- Instant preparation: Just type the name.
- Filter out Blitz and rapid with one click
New detection of duplicate games.
- Ten times faster and much more precise. Database maintenance has never been easier
Monte Carlo Analysis
- An engine evaluation is a single number. Monte Carlo provides additional insights into a position. Practical chances, drawing width, typical manoeuvres.
AI description of plans
- Explains a position to you like a good personal trainer would do it. (Valuable insights, but beware of hallucinations which are still possible).
Real time ray tracing
- The ray tracing 3D boards have become ultra fast and reach high resolution within seconds.
