Two more Soul Reapers are joining the island. Epic Games has confirmed a second wave of Bleach cosmetics for Fortnite, headlined by Yoruichi Shihōin and Kisuke Urahara. Both characters arrive as full skin sets, complete with back blings, pickaxes, weapon wraps, and LEGO styles, following the first Bleach drop that landed during Winterfest.
Quick answer: Yoruichi and Kisuke land in the Fortnite Item Shop on August 8, 2026, after the daily rotation. Look for both skins and their accessories once the shop refreshes that day.
Bleach Wave 2 release date in Fortnite
The Yoruichi and Kisuke bundle will be added to the Fortnite Item Shop on August 8, 2026, arriving after the store’s daily rotation. Both characters were already encrypted in the game’s files under version 41.30 alongside their accessories, which is why the wave was expected before the reveal made it official.
The teaser that confirmed the pair shows Yoruichi using her Shunko ability on the island, summoning six elemental orbs of lightning as she charges them. That sequence is widely expected to become one of her in-game emotes.
Yoruichi Shihōin cosmetics
Yoruichi gets the deeper treatment of the two. Her set includes multiple styles and is the only one in this wave confirmed to include an emote. Her main skin is built around the Shunkō Raijin Senkei form, with an additional edit style, and the leaked kit also lists a Ninja style and a LEGO variant.
| Item | Type |
|---|---|
| Yoruichi Regular Skin | Outfit |
| Yoruichi Ninja Style | Outfit style |
| Yoruichi LEGO Variant | LEGO style |
| Yoruichi Back Bling | Back Bling |
| Yoruichi Pickaxe | Pickaxe |
| Yoruichi Emote | Emote |
| Yoruichi Weapon Wrap | Wrap |
Yoruichi is the former captain of the 2nd Division and ex-commander of the Onmitsukidō, Bleach’s stealth force. She is known as the “Flash Goddess” for her speed and mastery of Shunpo, and she can transform into a black cat.
Kisuke Urahara cosmetics
Kisuke arrives with three variants, which is more style options than most collab skins receive. His set skips the emote but keeps the rest of the standard loadout, including a LEGO style so you can bring him into LEGO Fortnite.
| Item | Type |
|---|---|
| Kisuke Skin (3 variants) | Outfit |
| Kisuke LEGO Variant | LEGO style |
| Kisuke Back Bling | Back Bling |
| Kisuke Pickaxe | Pickaxe |
| Kisuke Weapon Wrap | Wrap |
Urahara is the former captain of the 12th Division and founder of the Shinigami Research and Development Institute. In the human world he runs a small candy shop as a cover, but he is the character who trained Ichigo and created the Hōgyoku.
Expected price
Epic has not published pricing yet. A bundle containing both characters is expected to sit around 2,800 V-Bucks, in line with previous collab sets of this size. Individual skins and accessories may also be sold separately once the wave goes live.
Note: That figure is an estimate based on comparable bundles, not a confirmed price. Treat it as a rough guide until the Item Shop listing appears.
How Wave 2 fits with the first Bleach drop
The Bleach crossover began during Winterfest 2025, when the first wave brought Ichigo Kurosaki, Rukia Kuchiki, Orihime Inoue, and Uryū Ishida to the game. That launch also included Zangetsu sword cosmetics, the Sodenoshirayuki pickaxe, Orihime’s Pin Wand, and emotes such as Fully-Hollowfied and Hakka No Togame.
Yoruichi and Kisuke expand that roster with two of the most-requested names from the series. With this second wave confirmed, fans are already floating a third, calling for Kenpachi, Unohana, Toshiro, and others. No official Wave 3 has been announced, so there is no confirmed date to watch for yet.
For now, the plan is straightforward. Load into Fortnite on August 8, wait for the daily shop refresh, and both Bleach characters should appear with their full cosmetic sets ready to buy.
