Honor of Kings teams up with Bleach for new Thousand-year Blood War collaboration

• Bleach has seen a major uptick in popularity, reinforced by its presence in Honor of Kings
• A major new collaboration is on show here, with four event-exclusive skins
• Jump in between June 28th and July 16th for a new event-exclusive mode

By now, you’re probably tired of hearing me say it, but Tite Kubo’s hit shonen series Bleach has undoubtedly been catapulted back into the spotlight. And as if the constant milestones achieved by mobile spin-off Bleach: Brave Souls weren’t demonstration enough, now there’s a major incoming collab between Bleach and smash-hit MOBA Honor of Kings!

Kicking off June 28th and running until July 16th, it focuses on the Thousand-Year Blood War arc. This crossover will see four new collaboration-exclusive skins arrive for Musashi (Ichigo Kurosaki), Feyd (Byakuya Kuchiki), Hou Yi (Uryu Ishida) and Bai Qi (Shihakusho).

The first two will be available from the Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Lucky Draw running from June 28th to July 16th in South East Asia & South Korea, and June 28th to July 27th in North America, Brazil and LATAM.

Hell’s bells and buckets of blood

Hou Yi and Bai Qi will be available from other events and will be on direct sale. But it won’t just be through snazzy new threads that the cast of Bleach will make an appearance. In the new game mode, Support Strike, you’ll be tasked with acquiring fragments throughout a match, and when you have enough, you can summon either Ichigo Kurosaki or Byakuya Kuchiki to help out!

There are more events besides. Starting July 1st, you’ll be able to complete missions in 5 v 5 matches that allow you to collect Normal Skin fragments and Dragon Crystals. Nab enough and you can exchange it for Hou Yi’s collab skin!

That’s a lot of great stuff! So, be sure to dive into Honor of Kings to get on the event. But if you’re stuck for stuff to do once you’ve cleared all that, why not check out our Mongil: Star Dive preview coverage to find out what this upcoming release has in store for ARPG fans?
