What Will Bleach x Fortnite Wave 2 Include?
Fortnitehas yet to detail the Bleach Wave 2 offerings and announce whether additional gameplay content, such as limited-time quests, will accompany the launch. The Aug 4 collaboration trailer on X only featured Yoruichi and Kisuke skins.
Meanwhile, well-known Fortniteleakers, including @ShiinaBRand @HYPEX on X, report that Wave 2 will also include character bundles, LEGO Styles, and additional cosmetic items not shown in the reveal trailer. Epic Games has not confirmed these details.
According to these leaks, Kisuke’s skin will have three variants, while Yoruichi’s features more than two styles, including regular and ninja editions. Backbling, Emote, and Pickaxes are also expected.
Expected Bleach x Fortnite Bundle Pricing Remains Unofficial
Epic has not disclosed official Item Shop prices ahead of launch. However, based on storefront metadata and reports from Fortnitedata miners, the entire BleachWave 2 bundle is expected to be around 3,500 V-Bucks, Fortnite’s in-game currency.
- Individual Outfit: 1,800 V-Bucks each
- Pickaxe: 800 V-Bucks
- Back Bling: 800 V-Bucks
- Yoruichi Emote: 500 V-Bucks
- Wrap: 500 V-Bucks
These figures remain estimates until Epic updates the Item Shop on Aug 7. The previousBleachbundle was 4K V-Bucks.
Bleach x Fortnite Wave 2 will drop at region-specific times. Across PT, MT, BRT, CT, and ET time zones, the collaboration will launch on Aug 7, while in other time zones, it is expected on Aug 8, 2026. In India, the Bleachcollab can be expected to release on Aug 8, 5:30 am IST.
The timing of Wave 2 also aligns with growing momentum around the Bleachfranchise. The collaboration arrives as the Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity,
the anime’s final cour, starts streaming. As anticipation builds for the conclusion of Tite Kubo’s long-running series, Epic’s latest crossover extends the franchise’s reach beyond streaming and anime audiences.
