Hirako, a charismatic and unconventional leader in the Bleach universe, rose to become a squad captain renowned for strategic prowess and combat command. His unique leadership style stems from his early betrayal of Soul Society, a pivotal moment in his career. Beyond his captaincy, Hirako wields a Shikai with exceptional abilities, notably the power to manipulate opponents' minds.
The Bleach: Rebirth of Souls trailer showcases Hirako's masterful manipulation of foes, using his powers to sow chaos and shatter their confidence. His unpredictable shifts between offense and defense make him a perfect choice for players who appreciate strategic depth in combat.
Gameplay is a 1-on-1 3D fighter, but with a key focus on back-and-forth movement reminiscent of 2D fighting games, albeit with limited three-dimensional movement.
Consistent engagement between combatants is key, with the ability to fight either grounded or airborne via Reishi-generated platforms. This dynamic shifts the fighting plane frequently, adding another layer of tactical complexity.
