Azur Lane Getting Souryuu, Hiryuu and Shigure Retrofits

Azur Lane’s developers love their sisters among carrier shipgirls, and two existing ones are soon going to ascend to super rare level.

To be precise, Yostar announced that the Sakura Empire rabbit-eared shipgirls Souryuu and Hiryuu are going to receive their retrofits to the English servers, bringing them theoretically up to par with the more popular fox sisters Akagi and Kaga. 

You can check out what they look like with their new designs below.

We also hear that Shigure is going to match Yuugure’s retrofit with one of her own on the Japanese servers.

You can check out what she looks like below.


This was announced during today’s episode of Azur Lane Station. Do keep in mind that we don’t yet know whether Shigure or Yuugure retrofits are coming west any time soon, while Souryuu and Hiryuu are confirmed.

Azur Lane is a free-to-play mobile horizontal scrolling shooter/RPG hybrid currently available for iOS and Android.
