New: playing style simulation at the highest level
FRITZ 20 analyses your next opponent – and plays like them! Use the style analysis in ChessBase 18 to configure whether Fritz should play aggressively, riskily, positionally or or exchange-oriented. This allows you to train specifically for your next game – realistically and practically.

The unique style engine simulates their playing style as convincingly as only FRITZ can. New: the additional playing styles ‘Hypermodern’ and ‘Romantic’.
