KLab Inc has just announced an exciting New Year update for Bleach: Brave Souls, bringing the Thousand-Year Blood War Zenith Summons: Fervor campaign to the JRPG. Starting December 31st, this event brings exclusive 2025 versions of Ichigo Kurosaki, Senjumaru Shutara, and Askin Nakk Le Vaar as 5-star characters, alongside other celebratory campaigns.

Bleach: Brave Souls' Thousand-Year Blood War Zenith Summons runs through January 24th, with a 6% draw rate for 5-star characters. You can look forward to special rewards at key milestones, like a “Choose a New 5-Star Character Summons Ticket (Fervor)” at Step 25 and a “New Year Special Choose a 5-Star Character Summons Ticket” at Step 50. 

Each featured character has a distinct role in the evolving storyline, whether it’s Ichigo’s determination to protect the Soul Society or Senjumaru’s dazzling Bankai, which manifests a thousand-armed attack. In addition, the 2024-2025 Bankai Co-Op Quest also adds cooperative gameplay with valuable rewards like a 5-Star Summons Ticket and bonus items.

To celebrate the new year, you’ll also get a chance to participate in the free New Year 2025 Choose a 6-Star Summons, available until January 31st. This offer allows you to select 10 characters from a provided list and guarantees one as a token of gratitude for the community’s support. It’s a good way to expand your roster and add some power-packed characters.
