CBT Selection Results

Official Selection Timeline

Bandai Namco's Closed Beta Test User Agreement states that selection result notifications are planned after July 16, 2026 (PDT). This date may change without prior notice, but it gives applicants a concrete milestone between the July 12 application deadline and the July 22 CBT start. Only applicants selected from the pool — capped at 20,000 worldwide if registrations exceed capacity — receive email notification.

The notification email goes to the address submitted on the application form. Critically, this email must match the Apple ID used for TestFlight (iOS) or the Google Account used for Google Play beta (Android). Mismatched addresses are a leading cause of invalid selections even when Bandai Namco initially approves an application.

Bandai Namco sends the notification only once and cannot resend lost emails or respond to inquiries about selection status. Monitor inbox and spam folders from July 16 onward. Our CBT Schedule page situates this phase within the full beta timeline.

If You Are Selected

Accepted testers receive instructions to install the CBT client via TestFlight on iPhone or Google Play beta enrollment on Android. iOS users must install Apple's TestFlight app separately before accepting the invite — see our TestFlight Setup guide for preparation steps.

Install promptly. Inactive invites may expire if Bandai Namco reallocates slots to waitlisted applicants. Before playing, read CBT Rules covering streaming permissions, data wipe policy, and the prohibition on in-game currency purchases during the test.

CBT progress does not transfer to the official release version per Bandai Namco. Uninstall the test app after July 29 before installing the launch client to avoid unexpected conflicts. Customer support links for iOS and Android are listed in the user agreement FAQ on Device Requirements.

If You Are Not Selected

Missing an invite by July 21 strongly suggests non-selection for this wave. Bandai Namco has not announced a waitlist public signup — assume July 22–29 access is limited to the initial 20,000 unless the publisher opens additional slots via surprise notice on bleach-mh.bn-ent.net.

Non-selected players can still prepare for global launch using our Gacha Simulator, Reroll Planner, and Tier List based on official trailers and the eight confirmed characters. Follow News for post-CBT pre-registration and gameplay reveals from compliant tester footage.

Avoid purchasing accounts or invite codes from third parties — Bandai Namco prohibits transferring CBT eligibility. Scams spike around popular anime mobile betas.

Klub Outside and Standard Tracks

Bandai Namco published separate user agreements for standard applicants and Klub Outside members. Selection mechanics and July 16 notification timing apply to both tracks, but registration forms differ. Verify you applied through the correct portal if you hold Bandai Namco membership benefits.

After results distribute, selected testers from both tracks share the same July 22–29 live window and CBT Rules. Differences, if any, in priority selection have not been publicly quantified — treat membership as a parallel application path, not a guaranteed acceptance.
