For once, a Fortnite anime crossover leak isn’t coming from a random burner account with two followers. SamLeakss flagged Bleach references buried in the latest Rocket League update, and HYPEX (the gold-standard source) backed it up.

A Community Haunted by Collabs That Never Happened

Mockups of what could’ve been…

Instead of hype, the immediate reaction was déjà vu.
Players rattled off the greatest hits of never-was leaks: Demon Slayer, Solo Leveling, One Piece, Devil May Cry, Persona.
One user summed up general exhaustion: I’ll believe it when I see it.”

Some insist Demon Slayer was planned for Chapter 6 and mysteriously vanished, which only deepens suspicion about every new “leak” that rolls through. After years of false starts, nobody’s giving Epic the benefit of the doubt until skins actually appear in the shop rotation.

But Bleach is confirmed, so what will be dropping?

Even skeptics admit the timing makes sense. The final part of Thousand-Year Blood War is expected soon, and Epic loves syncing anime drops with fresh seasons or premieres.

Fans are cautiously betting on a small but meaningful lineup: Ichigo and Rukia as the safe picks, with optimistic choices like Byakuya, Renji, Chad, Uryu, or even Yoruichi if Epic goes deeper.
And somewhere out there, someone is still praying for Aizen.

But the only universally agreed-upon item?

The entire fanbase wants to see “Number One” drop as a Jam Track, and it’s already been confirmed. Players are going to be shouting “NOW YOU FEEL LIKE NUMBER ONE” in lobbies for weeks.
