The brakes are probably pre bled. You will probably have to cut the cables to proper length though. If you are careful it can be done without needing a bleed, but its a good idea to have a bleed kit. If you ride often, you will probably want to bleed every 3 to 6 months anyways.
Also, you will want some good grease. This park tools stuff is good and can be used for headset and bb.

Bleed kit like this would get you started if you have Shimano brakes.

Edit: also, I noticed your comment below about making a headset press from a threaded rod and some washers. I do this. Used it to press in a couple headsets, and a press fit bottom bracket. Worked great and costs like $10.
I got the bleed kit from this guy, and it's been fine with keeping my XTs running smooth. Just start doing some YouTube research, like all of us other "YouTube mechanics" ๐

I have Shimanos, but I think the process is similar the fluid is just different. Here's the kit I bought:

Having the syringe was super helpful and I'm not sure that was included with the factory kit
