We have discovered a mistake with the current settings of  La Pampa -  the ship is able to use torpedoes in single-launch mode, similar to British cruisers and destroyers, which was not initially intended or planned for this ship. As a result, this mechanic will be removed from La Pampa.

Hello Captains,

Summer blazes on, but there's one thing we can't stop thinking about: our 9th anniversary! Grab a comfy seat and read on about what we have been cooking for our 9th Anniversary event.

Captains! As our Anniversary update draws near, it's once again time to reveal upcoming ships; this round includes many torpedoes, as well as some long awaited historical giants...

Based on the testing results, we're applying changes to Statenland, Pan-American battleships, Victoria, Georg Hoffmann, Brennus, and Pan-American Unique commander Joaquim Marques Lisboa, as well as balance change for Henri IV.
 

Captains, Update 13.8 is just around the corner – let’s get into the details of some of the upcoming features you can expect!

Captains!

We have exciting news regarding the ongoing Aircraft Carrier and AA tests! We are planning to launch a patch with various quality of life improvements and balance changes based on tester and community feedback.

We're applying balance changes to the following ships based on an analysis of both their combat statistics and player feedback: I-56, Hector, Buffalo, Saint-Louis, Henri IV, Tromp, Álvaro de Bazán, Ruggiero di Lauria, and Piemonte. 

Based on the testing results, we're applying changes to British aircraft carrier Theseus and European cruiser Svea.

Captains!

We have discovered an issue which causes the game to crash for the whole lobby if a player enters battle with VII Nelson equipped in the Azur Lane permanent camouflage. We are already working on resolving this matter but, until the fix is ready, we will temporarily withdraw this camouflage from the accounts of players who own it to prevent further crashes. Once the issue is fixed, the camouflage will be returned to these accounts along with one Tactical Special container as a compensation for the inconvenience. 

Please be aware that we are planning to install the update with the camouflage fix on July 17 and July 18 – depending on the region.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.
