Winter 2016 Event

Introduction

The Winter 2016 Event Sortie! Operation Rei-Go is planned to start on February 10th, 2016. It has been confirmed that the event will be inspired off of Operation Rei-Go which was a one day battle that took place along the Mindoro Island where an IJN counterattack was conducted in the winter on December 26th, 1944.

The Event is planned to be a small scale event, which will allow you to choose a difficulty much like previous events. It's been noted that hard level difficulty will be more difficult compare to usual event maps.

Information

Known and Confirmed Ships

Currently, Kancolle Staff Tweets have reported that there will be "more than one new kanmusu" introduced in this event. Currently it's known that 3 kanmusus are to appear within this event. What has been revealed so far is:

• An Akizuki Class Destroyer that bravely sacrificed herself to protect some members of the Ozawa fleet allowing them time to escape. She was commissioned and Struck from the list on the winter season. This suggests that the destroyer will be Hatsuzuki.

• Comtiq Spring Magazine revealed that the next a Yuugumo-Class Destroyer is planning to be appear during this event. It's been noted that this Kanmusu also partook in the same battle at the Akizuki-Class Destroyer and sunk soon afterwards. This suggests the next Yuugumo to appear will be Fujinami.

• Finally, Comtiq's Spring Magazine revealed that a foreign ship is expected to appear in the Extra Operation Map.
