During Spin Master's Q4 2017 financial results conference call, more details about the reboot were discussed. The episodes will be two eleven-minute programs rather than the traditional 22-minute format. The possibility of a [[Bakugan: The Movie|movie]] is also in discussion. For the toy line, Spin Master mentioned "advanced innovation" being brought to the toys and confirmed that it would be a global release.<ref name="Q42017">[http://spinmaster.com/download/SpinMasterCorp.Q42017FinancialResultsConferenceCallMarch_8_2018.pdf Spin Master Corp.

In early November, new toys were listed on Amazon, showing off some of the new Bakugan and the [[Attribute#New System|new attribute symbols]].
The Bakugan.com official site, leading up to December 1st, had a sign-up form for email newsletters regarding ''Battle Planet'' information, as well as a countdown to December 1st. After December 1st, no new information was revealed, but a new countdown timer was set to December 17th, promising that "all will be revealed." There were two other notable changes: the sign-up form changed, from simply prompting "Enter Your Birthday" then asking for an email, to "Sign up for our Baku-Blast! Enter your age to begin," as well as a new "Incoming Transmission" message at the top of screen which, upon clicking, would play a short clip of an unknown Pyrus Bakugan blasting fire at the screen before returning to the main page.
