I'd played it before, but I was a little crap. My chess revival was online. If you check out my first games, you can see how much out of practice I was. It's embarassing... 😛
I learned the moves as a child (I couldn't remember ever having heard about castling or en passant, so I guess I may not have learned that as a child). So I may have played some games as a child, too, but I can't remember it (nor can my parents; they also don't know who may have taught me the moves, maybe my brother).
