Bandai Namco's released a meaty new trailer for Bleach: Rebirth of Souls, covering the brawler's combat system and various game modes — including its story adaptation.
Combat-wise, we can't help but think that Rebirth of Souls looks pretty interesting. It's got the kind of simple fundamentals that you'd expect from a licensed anime title, but it stacks a bunch of comeback mechanics on top of character-specific abilities.
Turning the tide of battle is a huge part of the source material, and the game's clearly trying to replicate that.

Moving on to modes, you've got a free battle mode, online matches, and, as mentioned, a story mode. The story covers everything from the original Soul Reaper arc all the way through to the end of the Arrancar arc — which is a lot to get through, but we obviously don't know how in-depth the game's going to take things.
There's also a 'Secret Story' mode, which takes the key plotlines and retells from the perspectives of other characters. Could be intriguing if you're a big Bleach fan.

Day 1 for sure, can't wait. Haven't been on the anime games bandwagon in a long time. But Bleach is THE best
This actually looks really good
I'm definitely gonna keep my eye on this one
This title is also available for Xbox Series S|X and PC for those interested.

I am very much interested in the side stories that'll hopefully add some interesting new content to the story. Although I still don't like the simplicity to the combat. I hope that the advanced control scheme is up there with other fighting games like FighterZ at least. So far the only thing I'm just disappointed by is the presentation of the story. They showed off the beginning of it and it was kinda rough. Not as much as Sparking Zero at least.
@RZ-Atom If you are blind you can check the trailer for that information.
Oh I am 100% in for a Bleach renaissance. I just signed up for Hulu and am rewatching the original series now. I plan to watch the TYBW arc for the first time as well when I get there (I am skipping the filler arcs though). And then this game launches a few days before my birthday, so I am 100% ready.
@Flaming_Kaiser Did you want some cheese with that whine?
