Tite Kubo’s action manga Bleach was first published in Weekly Shōnen Jump, and it has remained hugely popular even after the series’ conclusion in 2016, with more than 130 million copies in circulation. Now, 3D action game Bleach Mirrors High transports you back into strange, familiar realms as a one-of-a-kind Soul Reaper.

The original story of Bleach came to a close with the fierce battles of the manga’s final arc, the Thousand-Year Blood War, but it has continued to win over fans ever since through anime and other adaptations. This game picks up in a world set after the all-out conflict, telling a brand-new story.

The heroes of Bleach Mirrors High are two new characters created by Kubo: Shirin Migishima and Shirane Sanari. Playing as one of the two, your story begins when you wake up in Karakura Town.

Kubo has been deeply involved in the project from the start, helping to supervise scenarios and having an active hand in everything from new characters to the game’s logo design. The three Soul Reapers you meet early in the story – Naru Jurinna, Giro Hando and Maiko Tokishima – grow throughout the tale as their unique personalities come into conflict.

Read through the main scenario alongside fully voiced characters, and immerse yourself in an original story you can experience only in this game.

The intense battles against the Hollows in your path are one of the highlights of Bleach Mirrors High. Control a Soul Reaper rendered in 3D graphics, then tap skill cards at the right moment to perform special moves with vivid animation.

Battles are fought by a team of three Soul Reapers. Swap characters quickly to chain combos, and call on Soul Drive – a move all three perform together – to deal serious damage.

Another highlight is the ability to customise each Soul Reaper’s Zanpakuto, the sword that’s essential to the world of Bleach. Tailor not just its colour and look but also its abilities, then fight your way through fierce battles with the Hollows in a style all your own.
