Battle for BFB, also known as BFB, previously known as Battle for BFDI, and by its full name Battle for Battle for Battle for Dream Island, is the fourth season of the Battle for Dream Island series and the successor to IDFB. It premiered on November 3, 2017, with the release of "Getting Teardrop to Talk".
A fifth season, called Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two, will premiere some time in the future and will air simultaneously.
The prize used to be a BFDI, but to keep contestants competing, it was upgraded to a BFB. In "X Marks the Spot", the original prize (a BFDI) was added to the prize pool in addition to a BFB. This is the first season to have two prizes.

The intro to 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.
The premiere 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 canceled and BFB takes place sometime in the future. However, it is highly possible, as stated by Cary in his BFB 1 reaction video.
