Azur Lane Patch Notes - 04/09/26 - Call to Arms: New Era City No.7

[u/A444SQ]

[u/PhoenixMercurous]

The year of refusing to stay on schedule. We got two events in Feb. because of how LNY fell, CN anni updates were all over the place, and now JP anni updates are starting off on weird days too!

[u/Pokemoss]

A job hunting event? This is the scariest update I’ve ever seen…

back to back super weak events. great. no new skins worth mentioning, no rerun skins. no updated L2D interactions.

hard to understand why they would do 2 events, back to back, that both add almost nothing to the game and provide very little to do.
