LONDON - World Chess plc (LSE:CHSS) will broadcast the sixth episode of its flagship television program, "The World Chess Show," focusing on cheating in online chess across more than 100 markets starting September 9, 2025.
Titled "The Last Word on Cheating in Chess," the episode addresses what the company describes as one of the most pressing issues facing the sport today. The program will air on over 20 networks worldwide and features interviews with former World Champion Vladimir Kramnik and Grandmaster Evgenij Miroshnichenko, who serves as WorldChess.com’s Head of Fair Play.
Miroshnichenko discusses the advanced tools, algorithms, and expert analysis used to protect the integrity of online chess competitions, according to the press release statement.
"Cheating has become the elephant in the room for online chess," said Ilya Merenzon, Chief Executive Officer of World Chess. "This episode is about facing that reality head-on, showing what’s being done, and why transparency is essential if the sport is to keep growing."
The company, which is the official partner of the International Chess Federation (FIDE), noted that the television show represents a key element of its strategy to expand audience reach. As part of this approach, World Chess has consolidated its products under the worldchess.com domain.
World Chess organizes FIDE Championship Matches and operates FIDE Online Arena, the official chess gaming platform. The London-based company is also developing "Armageddon," described as a chess league for prime-time television.
