The layer’s namesake, Apocalypse, is in Greek, translated to Revelation, the final book of the Bible, albeit changed to match the anime’s rendition; a winged dragon. Unlike previous Beyblades in the GaTinko System, Prime Apocalypse is not separated into three parts, but is a single part. The layer features a gimmick: The layer features a Mugen lock system that allows the beyblade to be unable to be burst through going through the teeth. To burst it, the tab on the bottom of the layer must be pressed while twisting the layer and the diamond in the center of Prime Apocalypse is red.

The Mugen lock system introduced works as intended, allowing Prime Apocalypse to continue taking clicks without bursting unless the button on the bottom of the layer is pressed and the diamond center becomes red. It also has better burst resistance than Regalia Genesis, a layer that has the same Mugen Lock System but has mediocre burst resistance. While the burst resistance is sub-par, the Mugen Lock System allows it to perform well in attack. Prime Apocalypse’s oval shape also gives it better attack power, however not to the degree of Judgement, a top tier attack layer base. The layer also features metal on the sides of the layer, increasing its attack power as well.

Another issue with Prime Apocalypse is its issue on rubber attack drivers. Due to its subpar burst resistance and the friction on the rubber attack drivers, Prime Apocalypse will simply take clicks, rotating the layer and lowering its attack power. Due to this, Prime Apocalypse works best on plastic attack drivers due to the lower friction, and it causes Prime Apocalypse to have better attack power.

Overall

Prime Apocalypse is a great attack type energy layer, with the Mugen lock system and the oval shape of the layer giving it great attack. However, Prime Apocalypse is outclassed by the Judgement layer base, the Super super Ring, and the First Super Ring for attack.

Due to this, Prime Apocalypse is not a must have but a welcome addition to a blader’s collection.

If you put either of those rings on single chassis, I'd say their attack power is less than that of Apocalypse (at least that's what it feels like when battling)
