Chess Universe, the pioneering free-to-play chess game with a Play-to-Earn mechanism, has announced integration with the Immutable (IMX) platform, according to immutable.com. This collaboration aims to revolutionize the gaming experience by providing players with strategic chess gameplay as well as the benefits of blockchain technology, including web3 ownership and exclusive rewards.
Innovative gameplay and exclusive rewards
Our partnership with Immutable introduces a unique blend of traditional chess strategy and modern blockchain capabilities.

The platform strengthens its competitive edge by allowing players to engage in PvP and PvE matches against friends, AI, and top players from around the world.
One standout feature is the ability to acquire and own NFTs. Players can unlock Guardian NFTs that enhance gameplay, providing new layers of strategy and personalization. Additionally, participants can climb leaderboards through daily challenges and global tournaments to further encourage participation.
Web3 integration and player engagement
Chess Universe’s integration with Immutable offers significant benefits, especially when using Immutable’s zkEVM technology.
