The virtual battleground of Fortnite has received a massive power-up from the Soul Society. Epic Games has launched an exciting new collaboration with the legendary anime series Bleach, bringing iconic characters and, more importantly, devastating new weaponry to the popular battle royale. Alongside a range of cosmetic items, players can now wield two formidable new tools of combat: the Dual Zangetsu swords and the Fully Hollowfied Ichigo Mask.
Unlocking Anime Power in Fortnite's Blitz Mode
These are not just for show. These weapons pack serious punch, allowing players to channel the anime's signature abilities to eliminate opponents. However, accessing this power comes with a catch. You cannot find these weapons in all game modes. They are exclusively available within the fast-paced Blitz Game Mode. To get your hands on them, you must search the various chests scattered across the map or loot them from defeated foes. Using these items is also crucial for completing the special Bleach-themed quests currently active in the game.
Dual Zangetsu: The Melee Master
Classified as a melee weapon, the Dual Zangetsu is perfect for close-quarters devastation. It offers a versatile set of attacks that mirror Ichigo Kurosaki's techniques from the anime.
Its primary attack combo ends with a powerful shockwave that travels for 2 tiles and deals 60 damage to anyone in its path.
The Getsuga Jujisho serves as its secondary attack, firing a projectile that inflicts a hefty 100 damage.
Finally, the Falling Strike is a slam attack that brings the user crashing down, damaging all enemies within a small radius for 70 damage.
Fully Hollowfied Ichigo Mask: The Beam Cannon
This item sits in an uncategorized slot and functions uniquely. It requires a few seconds to charge before unleashing a destructive red beam. This beam damages all players caught in its range and has the terrifying ability to damage opponents even through structures. Think of it as a high-penetration laser.
The mask is not a permanent fixture in your inventory. It comes with 15 uses (or ammo reserve) and a fire rate of 1. Once all charges are expended, the weapon disappears. Its damage stats are impressive: it deals 100 DPS (Damage Per Second) and can inflict 125 damage to structures.
Complete Quests and Dominate the Match
The introduction of these weapons is a core part of the Bleach crossover event. To progress through the event's questline and earn rewards, you will need to use both the Dual Zangetsu and the Fully Hollowfied Ichigo Mask. Your mission is clear: drop into the Blitz Mode, hunt for chests, secure these powerful anime artifacts, and unleash their might on your rivals. Whether you prefer the swift combos of the swords or the raw piercing power of the mask, mastering these tools is the key to success during this limited-time event.
