Beyblade: Evolution is an anime-style arcade card action game. The main story takes place in Bey Story Mode and revolves around the player's quest to become the world champion. The World Championship opens on turn 50, leaving the player time to prepare for it. This move is achieved through a series of challenges/tournaments. There are two versions available: 4D Mode, which features characters such as Gingka Hagane and Ryuga, and Zero-G Mode, which features characters such as Zyro Kurogane and Shinobu Hiryuin. Players get the opportunity to assign their player a name in the game. The map acts as the game's focal point in story mode, allowing the player to travel to various points of interest displayed on the touch screen.
