From Beywiki, the Beyblade Encyclopedia - Presented by the World Beyblade Organization
As the third generation of Beyblades, Beyblade Burst (ベイブレードバースト) is a series that will begin in July 2015 in Japan. Its gimmick heavily influenced its name: Beyblades are made to explode during battle. A new manga series will be published starting on May 15 2015 in the June edition of CoroCoro and an anime will follow shortly after that.

Burst Gimmick
As the name of the series suggests, Beyblades from Beyblade Burst are meant to explode with the action of the BeyBattle. However, there are also traditional ways to win a battle:
- Survivor Finish
- Ring Out Finish
Defeating a Beyblade by making its parts separate is called:
- Burst Finish

BeyLogger
The second most important gimmick announced by TAKARA-TOMY is represented by the BeyLogger, a device much like the BeyPointer that will connect to a smartphone to have real-time rankings and to add a Blader's own battling data to the list. This ranking system is part of something called the BeyCloud System. It uses NFC chip technology.
Components of Beyblade Burst
Going back to the very first generation of Beyblades (Bakuten Shoot Beyblade), Beyblades from the Beyblade Burst series are composed of three layers of parts:
- Layer: The main attacking piece, the Layer is made of plastic and displays its character's attributes.
- Disk: The Disk is a metallic ring that complements the shape of the Layer and adds a variety of weight distribution to the overall Beyblade customization.
- Disk Frame: Disk Frame is frame which is around the disk giving gravity, and some will also attack.
- Driver: Similar to a Blade Base or a 4D Bottom, the Driver encases a tip and also determines the height of the Beyblade. It's made of plastic for the most.

New Stadium
A new sort of BeyStadium accompanies the launch of this new Beyblade series: BeyStadium Standard Type. It resembles a mix of a regular stadium floor with a Zero-G cover on top of it, to protect players from exploding parts and high energy KOs.
Types
Beyblade Burst has introduced the same four types of Beyblade combos, with slightly different names:
- Striker
- Survivor
- Defender
- Balancer
Size
While this series bears resemblance to Plastics, their size is similar to Metal Fight Beyblades. The Burst series will be higher.
Launchers
Just like the Metal Fight Beyblade series, Beyblade Burst will see Starters and Boosters, with Starters including a Light Launcher. Although its name is identical to the Metal Fight Beyblade Light Launcher, the design for this winder-based shooter was changed.
A BeyLauncher will also be released, at first in the Start Dash Set. It is a string launcher.
Launcher Grips will be released separately. They are skinnier versions of the Metal Fight Beyblade Launcher Grips and the initial versions are white. They can accomodate the BeyLogger and Beylogger Plus at their top, similar to the BeyPointer on the MFB grips.
