Click on this message to jump to patch notes.

Thank you as always for playing Azur Lane.
Maintenance Period: June 6th 14:00 - 18:00 JST.

【New Features】
1. New limited game mode "Challenge Mode."
Game mode period: June 6th after maintenance - July 28th 23:59 JST.

★ What is Challenge Mode
Challenge Mode is a new limited game mode open to players at commander level 80 and above.
In the game mode, you will use one fleet only to clear various difficult stages and attempt to achieve high scores.
You can earn a special chat frame by achieving a high enough personal score during the limited period.
The Challenge Mode stages will randomize at 0:00 JST every Monday.

Note:
※ Challenge Mode will not consume fuel or morale. It will also not reward any EXP and affection or count towards player stats.
※ After clearing "NORMAL" mode (5 stages at max), it will change into "UNLIMITED" mode for you to test your skills.
※ If you prematurely exit in the middle of a stage, your progress will reset, and your recorded high score will be the score you achieved from the previous stage.
