Evaluation

Toribash is a free-to-play live service fighting game that has been receiving consistent and substantial updates since its 2014 Steam release. The game is built around ongoing seasonal content — it features a Battle Pass system with rotating seasons, quarterly-resetting ranked seasons with tiered rewards, an open in-game marketplace, and premium subscription options. These systems are designed to run indefinitely, not wind down. The developer, Nabi Studios, has maintained a steady release cadence: major version updates shipped in January 2024 (5.65), September 2024 (5.70), March 2025 (5.74), and September 2025 (5.76), alongside numerous feature patches and bug fixes in between. The September 2025 update (5.76) introduced Battle Pass Rewind — a system allowing players to replay past seasons — which demonstrates ongoing investment in the game's long-term content infrastructure. In December 2024, the developer also launched Toribash on Android with full cross-play support, signaling active expansion of the platform. The most recent developer communication was in October 2025, with the Ranking System Update post. As of June 2026, the game continues to be actively maintained and expanded as an ongoing live service.

About this game

"Just when ragdoll was becoming an irritant for gaming, Toribash swoops in to demonstrate why it's the best thing since shaded pixels." - PC Format

"Great physics; the best PC fighting game since "Rag Doll Kung Fu." - PC Gamer UK

Toribash is an innovative free-to-play online turn-based fighting game where you’re able to design your own moves. It is a martial arts simulator (yes, we do call a game with full body dismemberment a simulator) where you move your character by controlling joints on their body. As each of them can have 4 different states, number of possible moves is almost endless, which makes fights unique.


Main features:

  • Completely unique fights with players all around the world
  • Unlimited character customization: body colors, textures, flames, hairs and more!
  • Daily knockout tournaments hosted by the Event Squad
  • Lots of ingame and forum events
  • Ability to modify the environment and characters using the built-in Mod Maker
  • Open market - trade any of your items with your friends or just give them for free!
  • An extremely long game genre name
