Battle Arena Toshinden is a 3D fighting game for the Sony PlayStation 1. Released during the console's early years, it features a roster of eight distinct fighters, each equipped with unique weapons and special moves. Players engage in intense one-on-one battles across various arenas, utilizing a mix of standard and special attacks to deplete their opponent's health bar. The game incorporates a side-stepping mechanic, allowing combatants to dodge and counterattack in a three-dimensional space. Its innovative use of 3D movement helped define the genre and the early PlayStation gaming experience.
