Ichigo has finally regained his Shinigami’s powers, Ichigo regained them when Rukia had stabbed him from the back using a special sword which Urahara had developed. Ichigo now looks amazing with the brand new look. We can see some amazing improvements on his look from his last look. We can also see some resemblances from his Fullbring powers. His sword, Zangetsu has also been altered, this points out that some of his Fullbring powers still exist inside him.
As stated in the Bleach New Look Overview, Ichigo has gained an amazing new look.
This transformed Ichigo into this new Shikai form which personally, looks bad-ass. Ichigo’s outfit also has been remade by Tite Kubo. Currently we can see that Ichigo’s shihakusho has gained some similarities from Ichigo’s Fullbring Form.
After the old Shikai of Zangetsu, the appearance changes now, giving the blade a silver hilt with gray-wrappings and a short length of chain at its base. The blade itself becomes slightly reshaped, curving inwards at the backside of the tip similar to a trench knife. When stored away on Ichigo’s back, the former cloth will materialize to still act as an impromptu sheath.

I actually didn’t notice how the sword switched until the top pic. The anime’s nearly at the final arc (Unless they do some filler)
