Yostar has rolled out an exciting new update for *Azur Lane*, enhancing the naval shoot-em-up experience on Android and iOS devices. The update ushers in the Welcome to Little Academy event, spotlighting two new Super Rare (SR) and two Elite shipgirls. Alongside these additions, the update also brings seven new outfits, enhancing your fleet's aesthetic appeal.
The Welcome to Little Academy event, available until July 10th, introduces four new shipgirls from the Iron Blood faction. Engage in various event stages to earn PT (points), which you can use to acquire one of the new Elite shipgirls. Additionally, by collecting Colourful Doodles, you can unlock extra bonuses like the 533mm Improved Quadruple Magnetic Torpedo Mount. Completing the story mode will reward you with the Stony Slowly-Cat gear skin.
This event is a must-attend, as it introduces not one, but two Super Rare shipgirls: Alvitr and Z47. Both will enjoy a rate-up in the Limited Construction Pool, alongside the Elite shipgirl U-31. The second Elite shipgirl, Z43, can be obtained as a milestone reward by accumulating enough PT.
From a gameplay perspective, Alvitr serves as a Battlecruiser (BC), while Z47 and Z43 are Destroyers (DDs), and U-31 is a submarine. All hail from the Iron Blood faction. These new additions promise to shake up your strategy and fleet composition.

Finally, the update includes seven new skins, featuring an L2D skin for Illustrious, and dynamic skins for Alvitr and the Duke of York. Additional skins are available for Z47, U-31, Eldrige, and Z43. Be sure to grab the new Gear Skin Box to complete your collection.
