Lunch Break Dodgeball launches 24-player school matches

Lunch Break Dodgeball launched on Steam on August 16, 2026. The physics-driven sports game supports online rooms for two to 24 players and offline 12-versus-12 practice.

Lunch Break Dodgeball: confirmed details

Public and password-protected rooms can be searched and joined from the available list. Players can import photos into the character creator, then adjust body shape, appearance and paint before entering schoolyard or gym arenas. Steam lists online PvP and partial controller support. The official store listing credits vigourjp2 as developer and publisher.

What changed for players

A 24-player cap makes collisions and loose balls as important as planned throws, which fits the intentionally unpredictable physics. Offline practice provides a place to learn catching and movement before joining a crowded room, while private rooms support organized groups.

Availability and lasting context

Lunch Break Dodgeball is listed as a released product rather than an Early Access build. Normal patches may still change performance, balance and interface details after launch. The confirmed release supports Windows. Store availability and supported languages can vary by account region. Pricing, online availability and later updates should be checked on the live store page rather than treated as permanent facts.

This report separates features released on the stated date from later patches and community expectations. Balance values and platform support can change, but the documented release history remains the same.
