BEYBLADE X World Championship Takes Over Walmart Stores as Fans Battle for the Ultimate Ticket to Tokyo and a Spot in the Final Tournament

Young Bladers Ages 8 to 12 Can Compete in Regional Tournaments at Select Walmart Stores Across North America Starting in June

NEW YORK, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip! ADK Emotions NY Inc. and T-Licensing Inc. announced today that the BEYBLADE X World Championship is spinning into North American Walmart stores starting in June through the summer. Select Walmart locations in the U.S. and Canada will be hosting regional tournaments for BEYBLADE X fans, ages 8 to 12.

At each tournament, bladers will use tops from Hasbro's BEYBLADE X toy line to compete against fellow Bey-fans for a chance to qualify for the final World Championship tournament - an epic two-day battle at Tokyo Tower on Saturday, Oct. 11, 2025, and Sunday, Oct. 12, 2025. One champion from each participating country will earn a spot at the final World Championship battle that will take place in Japan, the birthplace of the BEYBLADE phenomenon.

Participants interested in the tournament can level up their skills using Hasbro's latest items: the BEYBLADE X Soar Phoenix 9-60GF Deluxe String Launcher Set with Red Right-Spinning Battling Top (also available in Canada) and play on the go with the new BEYBLADE X Clash and Carry Beystadium Battle Arena (also available in Canada).
