BeyWarriors:Cyborg is an anime series,a spin-off of the Beyblade franchise. Commissioned by Nelvana and produced by SynergySP,the series follows BeyWheelz and BeyWarriors:BeyRaiderz in being created primarily for the Western market. The standalone show has 26 episodes.

In conjunction with the channel's then upcoming broadcast of Beyblade Burst,Disney XD in the United States acquired the catalog rights to the entire Beyblade franchise in late 2016.[3] This included BeyWarriors:Cyborg,though as of 2023 the series remains unreleased in North America.
Plot
The newest series of the Beyblade saga is BeyWarriors:Cyborg,warriors who resemble half-creatures and half-machines. Mysterious objects called "Beyraiderz" are found in the sanctuaries of Teslandia. The Cyborg Warriors transform the energy released from the sanctuaries into small objects called Tokens. Who will win more battles to collect the most Tokens? The series in set in the future sometime around the 22nd century,where humanity has colonized space.
"Teslandia" is an abandoned planet,ignored by the rest of the nearby planets due to its harsh environment. The story begins with Nico,Al and Sola. They must get the most Tokens possible. When power spots containing high levels of energy called "Sanctuaries" are identified,and mysterious vehicle shaped items called "Beyraiderz" are found along with the Sanctuaries,the Beyraiderz can synchronize with the youths under the age of 17 living in Teslandia,and summon the Cyborg creatures known as "Warriors." The Warrior can transform high level "Sanctuary" energy into small Tokens. This means that human beings are able to obtain energy by making the "Warriors" battle against each other to turn the arid wasteland into a lush and bountiful world.
So,who will win the most battles and collect the most Tokens? What mystery lies behind each Warrior?
A group of invincible warriors with features of half-humans and half-machines can transform energy into small artifacts called 'Tokens'. Who will win the battles now?
When the Warrior Battles start,two mysterious Warriors appear in the desert next to the stone region. These two mysterious battlers have the ability to give power to a Warrior to summon another Warrior in a battle and also the power to take away Tokens from the sanctuary directly from the symbols carved on the chest of the BeyWarriors. Who are these mysterious Warriors?

As of May 13,2014,Nelvana has confirmed "Beywarriors Cyborg is still a production in development conversations" though its anime and toy line were acknowledged.
On May 21,2014,Yoshihiro Nagamori,the character designer for the anime stated it was still in production and expressed his desire for it to air in Japan.[6]

Despite this announcement,plans changed and without warning,K2 pulled the series from their schedules and as a result,the series did not air in September. It is unknown if the anime is intended to air on K2 at a later time. Sometime in early-October 2014,the d-rights website completed a massive site renovation and released new information regarding the show. The final name for the show was confirmed to be BeyWarriors:Cyborg. They debuted two images,one of a series logo and another a promotional poster. An extended synopsis of the Italian one released in July was presented,revealing new plot details. The series was also discovered to be produced under "BWProject" which is the same project name they used for BeyWheelz. Interestingly,d-rights classifies the series as a program for both kids and teens,suggesting this anime will be aimed at an older demographic than previous Beyblade anime.
On October 12,2014,it was discovered that the series is now set to premiere in Italy on October 18,2014 on channel K2 at 7:30. The second episode will air the following day with new episodes airing every weekends.
