The Dota 2 mod turned official game known as Auto Chess will soon be arriving on PlayStation 5 completely free-to-play, but will also come with features specific to Sony’s newest console.
Auto Chess first started as a Dota 2 mod inspired by a number of games like chess and Chinese Mahjong as well as video game genres such as MOBAs and tactical strategy games. In Auto Chess, players must strategically assign pieces onto the board as they would in chess, and the pieces then battle it out automatically after each opponent has their turn as they would in a strategy video game. But pulling from Dota 2, each chess piece has a different race and class with unique abilities. The popularity of the Dota 2 mod resulted in Auto Chess becoming its own standalone game.
Last fall, Auto Chess came to the PS4 and on March 30, it will be brought to the PS5 as well. Luckily, save data can be transferred from PS4 consoles to PS5s. But rather than being just a simple port, developer Drodo Studios has enhanced the game for the PS5’s modernized technology. For example, Auto Chess will respond to the player’s actions with the DualSense’s haptic feedback. Graphics and load times have also been updated, and the PS5 version will feature cross-play with all other consoles supporting Auto Chess.
Also with the PS5 version of Auto Chess will be a PlayStation exclusive chess player known as Date Masamune. It’s currently unclear if the warrior will be free or not, but he can be downloaded from the PlayStation Network after the game becomes available.
Auto Chess is available for Mobile, PC, and PS4, with a PS5 version to release on March 30.
