When Is Bleach Coming to Fortnite?

A new Fortnite anime collab has had its offical release date confirmed! The Fortnite Bleach skins are going to be released very soon, with their release date offically confirmed now. Bleach is a classic Shonen Jump manga, ranking among the best-selling manga of all time. Bleach X Fortnite will feature three new skins.

We’ve already had tons of similar franchises make it into Fortnite. Naruto has been one of the earliest Fortnite crossovers with anime. It was then joined by Dragon Ball, but Bleach has been a longer time coming. According to leakers it’s coming next.

This next collab has had some early leaks released. It includes a little bit about when we expect Bleach X Fortnite to actually come to the game. Along with some of the items that are coming. There are not only skins coming but some more exciting items too. This is what we know about the Fortnite Bleach collab so far:

Bleach X Fortnite Coming Soon

The next of the Fortnite collabs with major anime franchises is going to be Bleach. Last week we got early Fortnite leaks, but now Epic has confirmed what’s coming.

Lately, Epic has been included anime crossovers quite frequently. At one point they were happening nearly every Fortnite season. Although, that has got less frequent in recent Chapters at the end of Chapter 6. This collaboration will mark the first anime crossover of Chapter 7, along with Naruto returning to the item shop.

It’ll also tick off another older anime series in the game. Fortnite has had a mix of newer titles like Kaiju No. 8 and classic anime franchises like Cowboy Bebop more recently, but Bleach is up next.

Fortnite Bleach Release Date Confirmed

This week we’ve had confirmation of the Fortnite Bleach release date. It’s going to be coming to the Fortnite item shop on December 20th! A weird collab to happen halfway through Winterfest 2025, but it’s better sooner than later.

Alongside the release date, we’ve gotten an early look at some of the skins coming as part of Bleach x Fortnite. Thanks to some exclusive advertizing for the Fortnite collab in Japan players can see what’s coming.

All Items Leaked So Far

Typically, for these Fortnite anime skins, we get a batch of skins at once. So, the main protagonist, then usually one or two side characters, and the biggest female character. All three or four in one wave. Sometimes more, but rarely just a single skin. This has been roughly conirmed with the advertizing for Fortnite X Bleach as these skins:

• Ichigo Kurosaki
• Rukia Kuchiki
• Orhime Inoue
• Uryū Ishida

We’re also expecting the song Number One from Bankai to make it in as a Jam Track! These have been a more recent addition to the collabs line up but a welcome one. There will probably also be the normal array of pickaxes, back blings, and other items to fill out a bundle and locker slot for each skin.

For the exact details, we won’t find out more for a little a while yet. When we get closer to Bleach coming to Fortnite, we should find out exactly what characters are coming and their other cosmetics.
