ChessBase 17 - Mega package - Edition 2024
It is the program of choice for anyone who loves the game and wants to know more about it. Start your personal success story with ChessBase and enjoy the game even more.
The Playerbase starts with the best: if you go to players.chessbase.com you see a list of the current top 100. Clicking on the profile of a player yields more information: photos and an Elo chart showing how the rating of that player developed over time. Below photo and chart are the most recent games of that player — to play through and/or to download (if you have a ChessBase account).
Under "Lists", you can find several pre-calculated lists. The World Top 100 is loaded by default.
Select Women Top 100 to switch to the best active female players in the world.
We track Boys under 20 and Girls under 20 as well.
