What is ChessBase News?

ChessBase News (en.chessbase.com) is the English-language news portal of ChessBase GmbH, the German company behind the industry-standard ChessBase desktop software. Since the early 2000s it has been one of the most prolific sources of chess journalism, publishing daily articles covering tournament results, annotated games, player interviews, and historical research.

The editorial team includes contributions from grandmasters and international masters who provide in-depth game annotations and opening analysis alongside regular news coverage. The site's archives stretch back decades, making it a valuable historical resource for anyone researching specific events or players.

All articles on ChessBase News are free to read without registration. The site occasionally promotes ChessBase products and courses, but the editorial content stands independently as a quality chess news resource.
