How to Apply for the Closed Beta

Official Application Process

Applying for the BLEACH Mirrors High closed beta starts on Bandai Namco's official registration portal at bleach-mh.bn-ent.net. This is the only legitimate application channel — avoid third-party sites, Discord bots, or social media posts claiming to sell CBT access. Bandai Namco will never charge a fee for beta participation.

The application form typically asks for your email address, mobile platform (iOS or Android), device model, country or region, age confirmation, and agreement to the beta terms of service and non-disclosure guidelines. Some fields may include optional survey questions about your experience with BLEACH games or mobile action RPGs. Answer honestly; false device information can lead to disqualification if your hardware fails the compatibility check.

Our Apply for CBT guide walks through each form section with screenshots when available. You can also watch the official registration walkthrough video embedded on that page for a visual overview of the process.

Platform-Specific Enrollment Steps

iOS applicants must have an Apple ID, iOS 17 or later, and at least 4 GB of device RAM. If selected, Bandai Namco distributes access through Apple TestFlight. Install the TestFlight app from the App Store before the beta begins so you can accept the invite immediately when it arrives. TestFlight builds expire periodically; follow any in-app update prompts during the July 22–29 test window.

Android applicants need Google Play Services, Android 12 or higher, and a minimum of 6 GB RAM. Selected testers receive a Google Play beta enrollment link or opt-in code via email. Ensure Play Store notifications are enabled and that you are signed into the same Google account listed on your application. Custom ROMs and emulators are generally unsupported and may block installation.

Detailed hardware thresholds are documented on our Device Requirements page. Tablets are excluded from this CBT regardless of specifications — only smartphones qualify.

Application Deadline and Selection Timeline

All applications must be submitted by July 12, 2026 at 7:59 PM PDT. Bandai Namco does not publish an exact notification date, but acceptance emails typically arrive within one to two weeks before the July 22 CBT start. Check spam folders and add Bandai Namco sender addresses to your safe list to avoid missing invites.

Selection is capped at 20,000 players globally. Bandai Namco may prioritize geographic distribution, device diversity, and active community feedback history. Applying on the first day versus the last day does not materially affect odds if your form is complete and your device qualifies.

Refer to our CBT Schedule page for a chronological breakdown of milestones from application close through the end of the July 29 test period. The CBT Countdown tool shows remaining time until the deadline in your local timezone.

Tips to Maximize Your Acceptance Chances

Double-check that your email matches your TestFlight Apple ID or Google Play account. Mismatched accounts are a leading cause of lost invites. Verify your phone model against the published RAM and OS minimums before submitting — underspecified devices are filtered automatically.

Complete every required field on the form and accept all beta agreements. Skipping optional survey questions is fine, but missing mandatory consent checkboxes invalidates the submission. Keep your phone storage free before July 22; the CBT client may require several gigabytes to download on short notice.

If you are not selected, Bandai Namco may open future test waves or a pre-registration campaign ahead of launch.
