THE ULTIMATE CHESS EXPERIENCE

Every day more than 10,000 chess enthusiasts log in to Playchess.com from across the globe, so you can be sure to find an opponent of your playing strength almost immediately! When you want a break from playing yourself, you can also just as easily watch live grandmaster blitz, or tune in to coverage of world-class tournaments.

You can chose who to play against and at what time control, whether you want to try and improve your Playchess Elo in a rated game, or whether it should just be a friendly match – all you need to do is set up seeks and challenges and the games can begin!

What is your Playchess Elo? On the chess server, all serious games are rated according to FIDE rules. Improve your Elo and set up new personal high scores. With a little luck you will be able to challenge titled players to a game of blitz!
