Bleach fans, your patience has been rewarded. Yoruichi Shihōin and Kisuke Urahara — two of the most fan-requested characters from the franchise — have arrived in the Fortnite Item Shop as of 8 AM SGT on 7 August 2026, bringing the second wave of the Bleach Thousand-Year Blood War collaboration to Epic Games’ battle royale.
Yoruichi Shihōin Swings Into Fortnite with Full Shunkō Flair
Yoruichi’s Fortnite skin is cel-shaded to match Tite Kubo’s distinctive line art, and her two included styles lean hard into Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity‘s visual language. The reveal footage shows her surrounded by crackling golden lightning orbs, a clear nod to her Shunkō ability — one of the flashiest power sets in the entire series. Her black sleeveless combat outfit, thigh-high boots, and golden eyes translate surprisingly well to Fortnite’s Chapter 7 Season 3 aesthetic.
Kisuke Urahara Arrives With His Iconic Hat Intact
Kisuke Urahara is confirmed with three variants — which likely means his classic shopkeeper look (green suit, blue cloak, striped bucket hat) alongside at least one alternative that nods to his Shinigami or combat forms. If you’ve been waiting to drop into a match as the most suspiciously chill genius in Soul Society, this is your moment.
What’s in the Bleach Wave 2 Bundle?
Each skin comes with a full cosmetic set: Back Blings, Pickaxes, and Emotes based on the characters’ signature moves. LEGO styles for both Yoruichi and Kisuke are also expected, continuing Fortnite’s practice of including LEGO-compatible versions for all major collaboration skins. Individual outfits are expected to be priced at around 1,800 V-Bucks each, with the full Wave 2 bundle — including all cosmetics — anticipated at around 2,800–3,500 V-Bucks based on dataminer estimates ahead of launch. Check the in-game shop for the confirmed price now that it’s live.
The Wave 1 skins — Ichigo Kurosaki, Rukia Kuchiki, Orihime Inoue, and Uryū Ishida, which first appeared during Winterfest 2025 — may also return to the shop alongside Wave 2, so if you missed them the first time around, keep an eye on the Item Shop rotation.
Why Now? Bleach TYBW – The Calamity Is Currently Airing
The timing is deliberate. Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity, the final cour of the entire anime adaptation, launched on 25 July 2026 and is streaming weekly on Disney+ (including in Singapore). New episodes drop Saturdays, making this collaboration land right in the middle of the season’s run. For Singapore fans, Disney+ carries the simulcast — so you can watch the latest episode, then immediately drop into Fortnite as your favourite characters.
Epic teased the reveal with a cryptic “Don’t blink. See you August 7” — a clear reference to Yoruichi’s signature speed, which makes her essentially invisible in combat. The internet picked up on it immediately.
How to Get Yoruichi and Kisuke in Singapore
Fortnite is free to download on PS5, PC (Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 — all platforms widely available in Singapore. V-Bucks can be purchased through major game retailers and electronics chains locally, or directly through each platform’s digital storefront.
