About This Game

RPG CHESS - A TURN-BASED RPG, EXCEPT IT'S ALSO CHESS

In this game, every chess move can trigger a battle. RPG Chess reimagines chess as a turn-based strategy game with RPG combat, where pieces fight instead of being captured and teams are built through Kings, classes and abilities.

FEATURES

  • Chess Gameplay With An RPG Twist  
    Every attack initiates a battle! Instead of capturing pieces, you enter automated 1v1 combat sequences. The outcome depends on piece stats, elemental matchup, and available abilities. The attacker strikes first, but the defender can finally counterattack!

  • Unique Kings and Team Building

    Each King defines your team’s playstyle. Build your squad around your King's passive skills and adapt your strategy with different piece classes and abilities.

  • King’s Tower Roguelite Mode

    Enter the King’s Tower, a roguelite mode with multiple battles, piece levels and evolving choices between floors. After each fight, choose between recruiting defeated pieces, obtaining King passives, or recovering your team. Each run includes global modifiers that affect both players equally, creating varied tactical conditions.

  • Single-Player and Multiplayer Modes

    Play against AI in quick matches or challenge other players online or locally. Test different builds and team compositions, and draft the perfect set of pieces to fight for you!

CONQUER THE BOARD LIKE NEVER BEFORE

Build your team, evolve your strategy, and experience the legendary game of chess in a whole new way. Add RPG Chess to your wishlist to stay updated!

Coming 2026.
