AUT 5.6 is one of those updates where you can’t just AFK grind or rely on luck. Everything revolves around a quest system that forces you into combat, and if you mess up, you’re starting over. It’s intense, but honestly, that’s what makes this update feel rewarding.
If you’re trying to unlock everything without wasting hours figuring it out, here’s the full breakdown.
AUT 5.6 Bleach Update Guide – How To Get Ichigo, Aizen & Hueco
This update introduces three Bleach-based abilities:
- Ichigo Kurosaki (Legendary)
- Sousuke Aizen (Legendary)
- Hueco (Common)
Don’t let the “Common” rarity fool you — Hueco is actually part of the progression loop and not just filler content.
Where Everything Starts
Before you get anything, you need to find one NPC:
Dying Soul Reaper
- Spawns randomly in Soul Society
- Starts every Bleach-related unlock
Once you accept the quest:
- You get a temporary ability (Ichigo or Aizen)
- You become permanently combat tagged
This is important — you cannot play safe anymore. You either finish the objective or lose everything.
How To Get Ichigo Kurosaki
This is not a simple boss drop. You actually have to compete for it.
What You Need To Do
- Accept quest from Dying Soul Reaper
- Find an Intruding Hueco
- Fight it using your temporary ability
- Deal the highest damage
If you win that damage check → you unlock Ichigo
What Usually Goes Wrong
A lot of players fail here because:
- They get out-damaged by others
- They die mid-fight
Either one resets your progress. So don’t rush in blindly — timing and positioning matter.
How To Unlock Ichigo Bankai
Getting Ichigo is just step one. His real power comes from Bankai.
Requirements
- Ascension Level 5+
- Spiritual Pressure Level 6+
- Tenshintai item
How To Get Tenshintai
Dropped from:
- Ichigo Raid Boss (30% chance)
Boss Details
- Spawns every hour
- Located in Hueco Mundo
- Much easier with a team
Once you meet all conditions, use the item and you’ll unlock Bankai Ichigo.
How To Get Sousuke Aizen
Aizen starts the same way as Ichigo, but his progression goes way deeper.
Base Unlock Steps
- Talk to Dying Soul Reaper
- Accept quest
- Kill Intruding Hueco
- Deal highest damage
That’s how you unlock Base Aizen
Aizen Hogyoku Progression
Aizen’s true strength comes from his Hogyoku system, and this isn’t casual-friendly.
Requirements
- Spiritual Pressure Level 10
How Mastery Works
- Use Hogyoku Resonance → gain mastery
- Every 2 mastery levels → unlock a survival challenge
During this challenge:
- You must stay alive for a set time
- A bounty is placed on you
- Other players will hunt you
If you die or leave → you reset progress.
Time Requirements
- Stage 1 → 20 minutes
- Stage 2 → 40 minutes
- Stage 3 → 1 hour
Rewards
- Mastery 2 → Hogyoku Form 1
- Mastery 4 → Hogyoku Form 2
- Mastery 6 → Hogyoku Form 3
This system basically tests your survival skills under pressure.
How To Get Hueco (Hollow Ability)
This one flips the usual objective completely.
Steps
- Accept quest from Dying Soul Reaper
- Find Intruding Hueco
- Let it kill you
After dying:
- You respawn in Hueco Mundo
- You unlock Hueco ability
It’s simple, but if you’re used to “win = reward,” this can feel weird at first.
Ichigo Raid Boss
You’ll be farming this boss a lot.
Spawn Info
- Location: Hueco Mundo
- Spawn Time: Every 1 hour
Drops
- Hogyoku Resonance (70%)
- Tenshintai (30%)
If you’re working on Aizen or Ichigo upgrades, this boss becomes your main grind.
Spiritual Pressure System
This system buffs your Bleach abilities directly.
How To Level It
- Kill 5 players → +1 level
- Or use Spiritual Pressure Ticket
Max Level: 10
Key Benefits
- Bigger hitboxes
- Longer ability duration
- Pull effects
- Reduced HT requirements
- Soft ragdoll at max level
The higher your level, the stronger your abilities feel — simple as that.
Best Progression Path
If you’re starting fresh, follow this order:
- Unlock Ichigo or Aizen first
- Farm Ichigo Boss
- Level Spiritual Pressure
- Go for Bankai or Hogyoku Forms
- Pick up Hueco along the way
Trying to do everything randomly will just slow you down.
