Azur Lane: New Event — World Spanning Arclight, and New Characters
There are currently three events that are happening at the same time in Azur Lane, and a lot of rewards are waiting for players in the game so make sure to participate in these events.
This game is about battleships but instead of playing actual battleships, you are going to play as an anime waifu. That sounds like a weird combination but it’s also unique — hear us out first! If you have not tried to play this unique game of ships yet, you can play the game straight to your PC. You can read our blog on how to install and register for Azur Lane on PC here.

SHOWDOWN! Grid-juu VS Kai-juu! – This event will start on November 25 and is going to end on December 8. This is a minigame that you can find in the Grid Academy Tab. Follow the instructions to get the maximum reward in this event, here is how you play:
- A new round will be unlocked everyday at midnight until December 1.
- Tap on the block at the bottom of the screen to erase it as well as all other blocks of the same color adjacent to it. The remaining blocks will fall to fill in the game space. If three or more blocks of the same color are adjacent after doing it, they will all be erased as well.
- Every time two or more blocks are erased in one move, you will gain points and the character you control above will attack and have their special move gauge to fill up and gain transformation gauge corresponding to that color.
- When the special move is fully charged, your character can unleash their special move and you get more points.
- When the transformation gauge is fully charged, your character will power up, changing the special move and points earned.
- Erasing blocks while in a powered-up state will not fill the transformation gauge. The transformation gauge will continue to deplete while powered-up and the powered-up state will end when the gauge hits 0.
