Azur Lane Reveals Richelieu and More Skins for French Shipgirls

Today Yostar provided more information on upcoming content for its popular shipgirl-focused game Azur Lane.

We get more details on what is coming with the next major event on the Japanese and Chinese servers, starying with the SSR battleship Richelieu, leader of the Iris Libre faction.

On top of that, a new and summery skin for the submarine Surcouf is coming as well.

Unfortunately, the possibility that this event won’t be available immediately on the English servers is very real according to a recent announcement.

There is still something for those playing on the English servers, in the form of a “lazy” skin for Le Malin.

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.

If you’re not into mobile games, Idea Factory International recently launche Azur Lane: Crosswave for PS4 and PC, even if we’re still waiting for the DLC to launch in the west, since we’ve heard nothing specific about when and how they will be released just yet.

If you’re curious about the franchise’s popularity in Japan, you can check out my report about the recent anniversary event that pretty much literally invaded Akihabara.
