Where the story begins
The official introduction places this original story after the Thousand-Year Blood War. A lone soul awakens in Karakura Town, beginning a new Soul Reaper journey. The game also describes avatar and Zanpakuto customization.
This establishes the setting. It does not, on its own, settle every question about manga continuity or canon.
