5th Anniversary Celebration with the USS Hornet Museum 

Azur Lane set the tone of “Our Story Our Voyage” for this anniversary, with the game deciding to hold the party at the USS Hornet Museum to appreciate the five years of shared voyages and evoke the offline memories from where the journey began with Commanders in the first year. At this unique and commemorative location, exclusive celebrations dedicated to Commanders were arranged, including 2 well-designed Itasha cars displays, a cosplay show with more than 20 cosplayers, a DJ performance and other special events, delivering Commanders an immersive celebration vibe. Together, Azur Lane and the Commanders shared their hopes in creating everlasting memories that will continue to grow for many more years to come.
