Bandai Namco and Tamsoft have announced that Bleach Rebirth of Souls DLC character Yhwach launches on December 3 via early access for Season Pass owners and December 10 for the general public. A new update for Bleach Rebirth of Souls is expected to be released alongside Yhwach.
Bleach Rebirth of Souls is available now for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. A Season Pass is available with four DLC characters from Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War releasing over time. The Season Pass grants one week of early access for each new character, along with additional Soul Crystals. Thus far, the Season Pass has added DLC characters Ichigo Kurosaki (Thousand-Year Blood War), Retsu Unohana, and Ichibe Hyosube.
Final Weapon previously reviewed Bleach Rebirth of Souls and gave it a 3.5 out of 5 score, noting that the game is “a love letter to the long-running Bleach anime with full English and Japanese voice-overs in a faithful recreation of the franchise’s long story. The game’s simple but engaging combat system combine the best elements from anime arena fighters and traditional fighting games for some intense and visually pleasing battles. However, the game’s lack of online features repeats the same mistakes of Bandai Namco’s past arena fighters, reducing some of the game’s replay value.”
Bleach Thousand-Year Blood War Part 4 – The Calamity will premiere in 2026, and it’s expected to run for at least 13 episodes, with a grand one-hour grand finale. This will be the fourth and final part of the ongoing Bleach Thousand-Year Blood War anime series. A exact premiere date for the anime is unknown at this time, but more information is expected to be revealed at Jump Festa 2025.
