Get a Load of All These Temporary Mechanics!
Since 14.2, we've been introducing features intended to stick around only for a limited-time window lasting several updates. These include experimental ships and Operations with Flagships, but the list will continue to grow! Keep track of all these mechanics on a dedicated page on our website, and make sure you experience all of them before they disappear: EUNAASIA
Operation Ten-Go Event Pass
On April 7, 1945, legendary Yamato was attacked and sunk by waves of American carrier-borne aircraft. This year, we're commemorating the fate of the largest battleship in history with a full-fledged 3-week Event Pass.
The first progression line offers the Final Voyage permanent camouflage for Yamato herself as the final reward, while the second progression line yields historical Commander Seiichi Itō with an individual voiceover, Premium cruiser (and Ten-Go companion!) Yahagi, and the Defender of the Pacific Ocean permanent camouflage for Essex.
For more information about Update 14.3's Event Passes, see our dedicated article: EUNAASIA
Blücher at the Dockyard
The gates to the Dockyard have swung back open, and historical German cruiser Blücher awaits you on the stocks, as well as Commonwealth cruiser Gambia as an intermediate reward!
The shipbuilding process comprises 20 phases, 18 of which can be progressed through by completing Dockyard combat missions, while the rest can be completed for Doubloons. Each phase can be finished for 2,000 Doubloons, and there are also Starter Packs of two and six phases available for 3,200 and 7,800 Doubloons, respectively.
