BEYBLADE X, the latest evolution of the iconic brand launched in 1999, is establishing itself as one of the most dynamic properties of 2025. Thanks to the integrated strategy of licensors ADK Emotions NY and T-Licensing Inc.—which combines product innovation, a digital ecosystem, and strong cross-media presence—BEYBLADE X is attracting new fans while strengthening its bond with longtime followers.
An Innovative Product and Immersive Ecosystem
The new toy line stands out for its three-part modular system and new gear technology that makes battles ultra-fast. The brand also moves nimbly in the digital world, offering an engaging experience through dedicated apps, video games, and an active presence in the metaverse, starting with Roblox. Further reinforcing the franchise is a communication strategy that includes anime, manga, and collaborations with celebrities and pop brands.
Outstanding Performance During Holiday 2024
The return of BEYBLADE delivered exceptional results during the latest holiday season:
-
3rd place in the Toys & Games category on Amazon Europe during Black Friday
-
Prestigious awards including “Dream Toy” in the UK and “Best Toy” in the US
-
Excellent sell-out performance at Giochi Preziosi retail points throughout Italy
-
Over 1,500 participants in official tournaments, with broad media coverage at events such as Milano Games Week
Consistent Television Presence
Since its launch in August 2024, the BEYBLADE X animated series has aired free-to-air on Boing (channel 40 on digital terrestrial) and Boing Plus (channel 45), with a double daily time slot at 4:30 PM and 10:00 PM. New episodes aired in November, with exclusive content planned from the end of May 2025. The TV strategy is supported by on-demand availability on the Boing App and additional exposure on Cartoon Network, providing full coverage including PAY TV. The series performs well among both the 4–14 kids’ target and adults 25–54, thanks in part to the nostalgia effect.
Hasbro Leads the Global Relaunch

The licensing program features an energetic, cross-category style guide designed to maximize presence across apparel, stationery, edutainment, and home categories.
