Azur Lane: Crosswave Gets Gameplay Aplenty Showing the Steam Version for PC

Today Idea Factory International showcased plenty of new gameplay of the upcoming shipgirl-focused shooter-JRPG hybrid Azur Lane: Crosswave.

This time around we switch from the PS4 version showcased in previous livestream s to the PC version that will be released on Steam.

We get to see a rather extensive look at the game, from unlocking shipgirls to the photo mode.

You can watch it below.

If you want to learn more about Azur Lane: Crosswave, you should definitely read the interview we pubished a few weeks ago, in which Compile Heart President Norihisa Kochiwa talks in depth about the project.

We also have our review fresh from earlier today.

You can also check out more screenshots of shipgirls revealed a few weeks ago,  a second batch, a third one, a fourth, a fifth, a sixth, a seventh, an eighth, and a ninth, on top of the upcoming DLC shipgirls, and the latest gameplay in English.

The game releases on February 13 on Steam both in North America and Europe, while the PS4 version will have staggered releases by regions: North America will get it on February 13 as well, while European players will have to wait for February 21.

For the moment, we don’t have specific release dates for the DLC either in Japan or in the west.

If you’re unfamiliar with Azur Lane, it’s is a free-to-play mobile horizontal scrolling shooter/RPG hybrid currently available for iOS and Android.
