We have actually been covering Square Off at CES for a couple of years now– since the linked chess start-up completed in among our pitch offs. The Mumbai-based start-up has actually been rapidly repeating on innovation that lets users play a physical chess video game with challengers around the world, consisting of the arrival of the new modular gaming system, Swap.
Today at CES, it revealed the upcoming arrival of a new rollable system, including a level of mobility to its offering. Certainly you lose a few of the magic here– the self-moving pieces have actually been sacrificed in order to bring a board that can be rolled up and stowed away in a backpack for much easier transport. That result was a big part of what made the tech so eye-catching in the very first location.

Between the continued inability to congregate in-person and the rise in interest in chess in the wake of Netflix’s extremely popular “The Queen’s Gambit,” this appears like an appropriate time for the start-up to release a brand-new product.
Unlike past offerings, the business won’t be going through a crowdfunding website to release this one. Square Off expects to bring the item to market around March, priced at $199.
