The game was originally released for the Commodore Amiga and subsequently on the 3DO, MS-DOS, Apple IIgs, Commodore 64, Amiga CDTV, CD32, Atari ST, Apple Macintosh, Acorn Archimedes, FM Towns, and Nintendo Entertainment System.
Battle Chess has spawned several sequels and clones, including Star Wars Chess and Terminator 2: Chess Wars.
