Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V: What Resets and What Stays

Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V begins after maintenance on 5 November 2026 and introduces Winter Wanderlust. The season lasts until 1 February 2027 at 11:59 PM UTC-7, which is 2 February at 06:59 GMT in the UK.

Not everything on your island starts over. Warehouse materials turn into Island Development Points, and unfinished orders and jobs are cleared. Your Island Technology and character development stay intact, so you won’t have to rebuild that progress.

Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V start and end dates

The new Development Season arrives with Yostar’s 5 November maintenance. Maintenance starts at midnight UTC-7, or 07:00 GMT, and is expected to run for approximately six hours. Winter Wanderlust becomes available after the servers return, rather than at a guaranteed reopening hour.

The Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V deadline is early on 2 February 2027 in the UK. The table above converts Yostar’s server time for other regions, so use the time for your location when planning your final rewards.

What resets before Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V?

At the 5 November changeover, materials in your Warehouse automatically convert into Island Development Points. Ongoing requests, transport jobs, character assignments, manual planting and shop management reset. The table below shows exactly what happens to each activity.

Progress or activity	At the Season IV reset
Warehouse materials	Automatically convert to Island Development Points
Ongoing island requests	Cleared
Transportation jobs	Cleared
Character assignments	Reset
Manual planting	Reset
Shop management	Reset
Island Technology	Preserved
Character development	Preserved

Don’t expect to finish an old transportation job after the servers reopen. Fortunately, Island Technology and character development progress carry over, so you won’t need to rebuild those upgrades from scratch.

What to claim before Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V

Before the season changes, claim all earned Development Plan rewards and accumulated PT rewards. Yostar says unclaimed rewards from the outgoing season will no longer be available afterwards. It’s worth checking those menus before maintenance begins.

Warehouse materials convert automatically, but Yostar doesn’t publish a per-material conversion table in the notice. Don’t guess at a conversion rate or assume you can carry an old unfinished order into Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V.

How to unlock Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V

You need Commander Level 50 to unlock Island Planner, but its new Development Season has another requirement: Island Development Level 5. Reaching Commander Level 50 alone won’t unlock the Season V development requests.

Once you’re eligible, take on Peary’s specialty product requests. Completing them earns rewards including Island Development Points. The Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V Development Plans also offer character training materials, Stellar Tickets and other rewards.

Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V rewards

Winter Wanderlust includes new specialty orders and Development Plans. Yostar confirms Island Development Points, training materials and Stellar Tickets, but the full list of reward tiers appears in-game. Check the Season V plan before deciding which requests to prioritise.

Stellar Tickets are used in the Stellar Prize Draw. That draw has its own rules for unused tickets, automatic draws and refunds when a pool closes. Earning tickets through Season V doesn’t automatically give you every draw reward.

Do Island characters carry over into the new season?

Yes. Your character development survives the reset. Yostar also names Ognevoy, Ägir, Argus, Nagato and Hwah Jah as new Island Planner characters that can be invited through the expanded systems.

The update mentions Development Seasons, Stellar Prize Draw and Island Technology among the invitation methods, but doesn’t assign a specific route to each character. Check the in-game invitation requirement for the one you want before spending tickets.

What is the main deadline to remember?

Azur Lane Island Planner Development Season V ends at 06:59 GMT on 2 February 2027. The immediate concern, though, is the 5 November reset. Claim Season IV rewards before that changeover and finish any jobs you don’t want cleared.

The Bayard Blueprint Completion Plan also begins on 5 November, but is unrelated to Island Planner’s reset and ends in December. Treat the two systems as separate events with different tasks and deadlines.
