Features of DGT World Chess Set
This electronic edition keeps the recognizable Official World Chess design while adding the practical advantages of DGT-enabled play. You get a set that looks like serious tournament equipment and also works with electronic chess systems for game recording, training, broadcasting, and digital analysis.
-
DGT-enabled setup: designed for use with compatible DGT electronic boards and systems.
-
Official World Chess design: combines classical Greek architectural proportions with the timeless Staunton style.
-
Tournament-standard board: sized for serious play and proper piece spacing.
-
Boxwood pieces: clear, traditional, and comfortable for over-the-board games.
-
Extra queens included: useful for promotion scenarios during real play.

If you are comparing electronic chess products, this set sits naturally within the wider electronic chess collection. It is a strong choice when you want a board-and-pieces combination that can support both traditional play and connected chess workflows.
In Which Championship Has It Been Used?
The Official World Chess Set has direct World Championship relevance. The official FIDE set was first used on DGT boards during the 2013 World Championship Match in Chennai, India, where Magnus Carlsen defeated Viswanathan Anand and became the 16th World Chess Champion. That connection gives this electronic edition more than technical value — it links the set to one of the defining moments in modern chess.
For your setup, this means you are not just choosing an electronic board and pieces. You are choosing a DGT-enabled version of a set associated with elite World Championship play, official presentation, and the modern era of professional chess. That background makes the set especially appealing if you want equipment with both practical digital function and tournament heritage.
