Battle for BFB and Battle for BFDI (also known as Battle for Battle for Dream Island or BFB) are the two fourth seasons of the Battle for Dream Island series and the successor to the third season IDFB. It premiered on November 3, 2017, with the release of "Getting Teardrop to Talk." and concluded on April 9, 2021, with the release of "Chapter Complete".
A fifth season, known as Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two, aired simultaneously. It was announced to premiere on January 9, 2021, but due to bugs with the intro[citation needed], it premiered on January 10, 2021. A sixth season is also planned to be made after BFB ends.
The prize used to be a BFDI, but in "The Escape from Four", Four upgraded it to a BFB to keep contestants competing. In "X Marks the Spot", he added the original prize (a BFDI) back to the prize pool, making BFB the first season to have two prizes.
Overview
Battle for BFDI logo
Battle For B.F.D.I (BFB) Intro HQ
The intro to the first half of the season.
Unlike IDFB, Battle for BFDI goes back to the traditional format of challenges and eliminations, similar to the first and second seasons. The elimination style changed to a choice of saving rather than eliminating in BFB 17.
The art style is more simplified and animated more loosely, which in turn allowed the running time of the first episode to be nearly half an hour-long, and later episodes to be able to be made within a shorter time frame.
Many unexplained plot changes have happened to let new characters join the cast and for old characters to return. Additionally, Profily debuted as a contestant in "The Hidden Contestant".
The first episode, "Getting Teardrop to Talk", introduces the fourth season's cast as well as the new hosts, Four and X from the 2008 jacknjellify video, "X Finds Out His Value".
Although the release of IDFB confirmed the end of BFDIA, the release of BFB does not confirm the end of IDFB. Since all of the characters are present (except for Evil Leafy and Nonexisty), including the ones that were originally trapped in the Locker of Losers, this might mean that IDFB is not cancelled and BFB takes place sometime in the future. However, it is highly possible, as stated by Cary in his BFB 1 reaction video.
