Chessmaster releases Rabbids on an unsuspecting world

Ubisoft has been doing a pretty good job at continuing to release new additions for Chessmaster, slowly building up more stuff to eventually be the complete PC version. Today they've added a new Chess set - Rabbids!

The Rabbids from Rayman Raving Rabbids have been added as Downloadable Content for the XBLA. It'll cost you 150 Microsoft Points, and allows the player to essentially play a game of Battle Chess, now with Rabbids. Surprisingly takes over 50meg of space - almost as much as the game itself! Each piece on the board is filled with animation as they battle with plungers and toy horses. You can view them in the trailer above.

Along with this, you can also download a free minigame addition to Chessmaster called Fork My Fruit. Described as follows:

You can go download it now, for free!
