Bleach: Mirrors High

Bleach Mirrors High is a mobile game set after the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, scheduled for a 2026 release, with pre-registrations open as of late August 2026. It is slated for the App Store and Google Play.

Synthesized from 5 Yomimono stories · updated 4d ago

Bleach Mirrors High is a smartphone game from Bandai Namco Entertainment that continues the Bleach story beyond the Thousand-Year Blood War arc. The player becomes an original Soul Reaper protagonist who awakens in Karakura Town after losing memories and re-enrolls at the Soul Reaper academy. The narrative is an original one rather than a retread of existing episodes, with newly drawn stills supporting the plot.

Series creator Tite Kubo directly designed three new squad members for the game: Naru Jurina, Giro Hando, and Maiko Tokishima. They were first shown in a July 18 overview trailer, and their voice cast was later confirmed. The game features card-based battles with a team of three characters and a cooperative move called Soul Drive, plus customization of the protagonist's appearance, name, and Zanpakuto.

Bandai Namco ran a closed beta test from July 22 to 29, 2026, letting players experience the early story, battles, and customization. A system trailer followed in late July, and on August 29 the company opened pre-registrations alongside two new short videos. The game is scheduled for release in 2026 on the App Store and Google Play. It will also have a playable demo at Tokyo Game Show 2026, held at Makuhari Messe from September 17 to 21.
