One of the most overlooked aspects of a fighting game, especially in an anime fighter, is the Story Mode, which typically features disgustingly low quality.Bleach Rebirth of Souls, despite having iffy animations, tries to break the cycle by having a fleshed-out campaign that follows in the series' footsteps while taking a few creative liberties. Although it’s not a substitute by any means, the effort is commendable, especially when you consider how long the mode is.

Alongside the main story, you’ll notice a separate “Secret Story” tab with its own progression and content. When you first open the tab, you’ll likely be greeted with tons of locked missions, but if you’re adamant on discovering more single-player content, the endeavor to unlock them is worth it.

How To Unlock Secret Stories

Secret stories are distributedamong 21 characters across three arcs: six from the World of the Living, 15 from the Soul Society, and ten from the Hueco Mundo. Each character has three or four missions, and unlocking these missionsrequires completing a combination of tasks. These may include finishing a single mission or multiple missions from the Main Story, a mission from the Secret Story, a Secret Mission from the Main Story, or a Secret Moment from either the Main Story or Secret Story.

In the Main Story, some missions have bonus tasks,such as a Secret Mission or Secret Moment, which are displayed in the Battle Preparation menu before entering a fight. These can be considered side missions, often involving optional tasks likemeeting a fighting condition or executing a specific Kikon Move or Spiritual Move.

Completing these tasks will automatically unlock a Secret Story Mission, which will appear in the bottom-left corner of the Secret Story tab.A red dot indicates a newly unlocked mission, making it easy to spot.

It’s better to complete the Main Story before attempting to unlock the individual secret stories. Most of the requirements hinge on you beating the final fight with Monster Aizen.
