Beyblade X marks the 4th iteration of the popular gaming toyline that started life in Japan as a spinning top battle game from Takara in 1999. The new line is already out in stores and the anime, Beyblade X, will debut on the BBC on August 19th.

Synopsis:
Amateur Blader Robin Kazami finds himself out of a team when he is ditched by his friends after a crushing defeat. Lucky for him, a chance encounter with former champ Jaxon Cross leads these two unlikely teammates to join forces. Jaxon intends to climb back to the top of The X under the alias “Blader X” and challenge his old teammate and current champ, Khrome Ryugu. When they find a third team member in mega-popular influencer Multi Nana-iro, the newly-formed Team Persona set their sights on going pro and claiming their spot at the top!

The Beyblade X Toyline:
The toys from Hasbro are already available, with an array of arenas, Beyblades and assorted tie-in merchandise is coming in 2025 that should make the brand one of the biggest and most heavily backed boys toy ranges of next year. New Beyfans can start with the Beyblade X Xtreme Battle Arena which comes with an arena, 2 Beyblades and 2 ripcords so you have everything you need to get started. 

Digital battles are also available by scanning the codes on the Beyblades with the Beyblade App, allowing enthusiasts to battle online with other fans worldwide.

Lastly, keep an eye out for news of local Beyblade events with prizes for the winners. So if you hear kids yelling "let 'em rip!", now you'll know why!
