ChessBase 16 - The new features Part 1

by Arne Kaehler - 12/11/2020

ChessBase 16 is already in the starting blocks and will be released on 17th November 2020. Now everyone wants to know: what are the new features in this version? What innovations are on the horizon? And what is the "key to new ideas"? ChessBase co-founder Matthias Wuellenweber, who has developed all ChessBase versions since 1986 with his team, presents the most interesting innovations in the video. Part 1 of the five-part series (in which ChessBase programmer Jeroen Van Den Belt is also involved) deals with "opening novelties" at the highest level.

Opening novelties

Matthias Wuellenweber explains to us why Fabiano Caruana was an initiator of this feature and shows on ChessBase 16 the extensive functions of the opening novelties, and how these can be used effectively.

In this five-part series, which is shown every day before ChessBase 16 is released, our programmers give us a small insight into the latest functions of our royal product.
