Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships are joining the game’s regular construction and Merit Shop systems after maintenance on 5 November 2026. Guichen, Clemenceau, Lyon, Suffren and Painlevé are construction additions. Kersaint becomes a permanent Merit Shop ship instead.
Yostar is also adding The Fool’s Scales to War Archives. Ägir gets a Fate Simulation, and Swiftsure and Bataan receive augment modules. All of these additions are separate from the Tempesta event that ends immediately before maintenance.
Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships and pools
Yostar’s 4 November notice lists the exact construction categories. Check the table before spending Wisdom Cubes. Guichen belongs in Light, for example, while Painlevé is being added to Special.
| Ship | Permanent acquisition route |
|---|---|
| Guichen | Light construction |
| Clemenceau | Heavy construction |
| Lyon | Heavy construction |
| Suffren | Heavy construction |
| Painlevé | Special construction |
| Kersaint | Merit Shop |
These are the Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships named in the patch. Permanent availability doesn’t guarantee a drop from the next construction attempt, and the notice doesn’t give individual pull percentages. Check the current in-game pool information for rates before spending.
How to find the Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships
- Wait for the 5 November maintenance to finish.
- Go to Build if you want Guichen, Clemenceau, Lyon, Suffren or Painlevé.
- Choose the corresponding Light, Heavy or Special construction pool from the table.
- Check the pool details and your available resources before building.
- For Kersaint, go to the Merit Shop instead of Build.
The distinction between pools matters. Guichen joins Light, Clemenceau, Lyon and Suffren join Heavy, and Painlevé joins Special. Kersaint is not a construction addition at all. Don’t spend Wisdom Cubes looking for her in the wrong place.
Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships: Kersaint’s Merit Shop route
Kersaint joins the Merit Shop permanently. Yostar doesn’t list a specific Merit price in the maintenance notice, so you’ll need to check her listing when the game returns from maintenance. This is the clearest exception among the Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships.
Don’t mistake a ship becoming permanent for a free gift. Construction still uses its normal resources, and Merit Shop purchases require their listed currency. No free mail distribution of these six ships is announced in this update.
When is The Fool’s Scales added to War Archives?
The Fool’s Scales becomes permanently available in War Archives after maintenance on 5 November. This allows access to its archived event content, but it is separate from ship construction and the Merit Shop.
The notice doesn’t provide a full War Archives drop table. If you’re looking for a particular ship or equipment item, check the archived stages in-game. Not every reward from a limited event necessarily returns with its archive.
Other permanent additions in the November update
Alongside the Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships, Yostar adds Fate Simulation for Ägir, and two augment modules: Swiftsure’s Knight’s Shining Star and Bataan’s VF-50 Devil Cat. The Palais Élégant furniture set also becomes permanently available.
The Fate Simulation and augment modules don’t create another construction banner. Their detailed effects are best checked in the in-game upgrade screens rather than inferred from the announcement.
Does the new permanent content replace Tempesta?
No. Tempesta and the Corridor of Fog ends at 11:59 PM UTC-7 on 4 November, which is 06:59 GMT on 5 November. That’s a limited event cutoff, not the deadline for the new permanent construction ships or The Fool’s Scales archive.
The Azur Lane November 2026 permanent ships additions are separate from Tempesta’s reward and shop deadlines. Our Tempesta event guide covers the older event, while the Bayard Blueprint Completion Plan explains the new limited research bonus.
