The Doodle celebrating chess launched globally, marking yet another reminder of the game’s universal appeal and enduring legacy.

On clicking the doodle, users land on a page titled 'Celebrating Chess'. It describes chess as "a two-player strategy game played on 64 black and white squares".

Google Doodle: The 2024 FIDE World Championship final will take place from November 25 to December 13 at Singapore’s Equarius Hotel in Resorts World Sentosa. Ding Liren, the reigning world champion, will compete against India’s Gukesh. On Monday, Google Doodle created an innovative animation to mark the commencement of the game.

The doodle for November 25 is chess-themed and has been done to celebrate the 2024 World Chess Championships. Two top chess players from around the globe will go head to head in board game battles across November and December in the hopes of being crowned the champion around Christmas time.

Google Doodle today aligns perfectly with the ongoing World Chess Championship in Singapore, a highly anticipated event that stretches from November to December.
