Chessmaster headed to Xbox 360 Live Arcade
Chessmaster will be making it’s way to yet another platform in the form of a release on Xbox Live Arcade in January 2008 from massive publisher Ubisoft.
Features of Chessmaster on Xbox Live include:
* Hundreds of AI opponents in “ELO-ranked matches”
* Voice-chat
* Live Vision Camera functions for head-to-head matches
* New 3D chess sets inspired by luxury board designer, House of Staunton
* Five “original chess variants”
* The “Message Chess” variant allows you to spread one chess match over “days, weeks or even months”!
“Chessmaster Live is not only a comprehensive chess program, but it is also one that has expanded beyond the traditional game to include exciting features for fans, both old and new,” says Ubisoft’s Peter Helm.
Ubisoft already published various Chessmaster games here including the recently released duo of Chessmaster: The Art of Learning on DS and Chessmaster: Grandmaster Edition on PC and they will be publishing ChessMaster for PSP in Spring of 2008.
