Summer is in full swing, and mobile games are diving into the season with a splash of swimsuit events. Bleach: Brave Souls, the popular game inspired by Tite Kubo's renowned manga, is no exception. This year's summer event promises to be exciting with the introduction of three new five-star characters, a special banner summon event, and an engaging social media campaign.

The highlight of this summer event is the introduction of three stunning new five-star characters, each donning a 2024 Swimsuit version. Fans can look forward to Bambietta, Candice, and Meninas making their debut in these exclusive outfits. These characters will be available starting June 30th as part of the "Swimsuit Zenith Summons: Summer Splash!" banner event, which will run until July 15th. The summoning rules are straightforward: you're guaranteed one of the featured five-star characters every five steps up to Step 20, and at Step 25, you'll receive a ticket to choose your preferred character.

Alongside the banner event, Bleach: Brave Souls is launching a social media campaign to celebrate the summer. Participants have a chance to win an exclusive acrylic phone stand, adding a fun collectible to the mix. This campaign underscores the game's commitment to engaging its community throughout the season.

It's worth noting the resilience of Bleach: Brave Souls, particularly when compared to other long-running mobile games like King of Fighters ALLSTAR, which recently announced its closure. Bleach: Brave Souls had faced a dip in popularity but has been revitalized thanks to the Thousand-year Blood War arc adaptation, bringing the game back into the spotlight. For fans, this summer event is yet another sign that the game is thriving and here to stay.
