With the current FreeStyle (Fischer Random or Chess 960) Tournament being broadcast, it would be great to be able to play that Chess variant on this board.

Any plans to integrate that into ChessUp?

Thanks, everyone at ChessUp for a fantastic platying experience!

Hi and welcome! Currently chess 960 is not on the feature roadmap - we are focusing on a lessons platform first and then we will be able to revisit next features.

Okay, thanks, Jeff. Given the popularity of chess variants, and especially with Magnus’s GOAT FreeStyle event that just happened, it would be a great addition to ChessUp’s features. Thanks for the quick replly.
