We are pleased to announce the upcoming release of Ktulu 8 by Rahman Paidar.

A summary of changes:
Tactically the engine is considerably stronger, Ktulu 8 find the best moves faster or at lower depths. King safety evaluation has improved to allow Ktulu to detect better when the king is in danger on the board. Passed pawn evaluation is tuned again in this version which detects really faster the danger of passed pawns on the board before they get revealed. The development strategy of pieces in middle game has been clearly improved compared to the previous version which allows Ktulu to play more active than before. Pawn structuring evaluation is completely rewritten with newer concepts. Ktulu plays better than before in terms of positional playing.

Our tests suggest this version is approximately 50-100 points stronger than previous version. More information and test results will follow later.

Expected first week of July.
