During events, qualified players gain access to a special "time-limited world" with exclusive maps, referencing historical/planned operations.
*The only exceptions being:
**The [[Christmas 2013 Event]], a collaboration event with the Arpeggio franchise,
**[[Mini-Event]]s, being centered around current Japanese seasonal events.
Event maps stay up for an indeterminate amount of time, on average 43 days for [[Phase 2]], and which can range anywhere between 3 and 9 weeks, and being typically released in multiple phases:
*The '''"1st Stage Operations"''' (MO), being released at the event's start, with sometimes a delay of few days for some maps,
**They range from 1 to 4 maps.
*The '''"2nd Stage Operations"''' (EO), being released some weeks after the MO, with sometimes a delay of few days for some maps,
**They range from 1 to 3 maps.
*Eventually "[[Friendly Fleet]]s", in either 1 or 2 waves, being released neer the event's end.
Events come in different scales:
*'''"Small Scale"''' for 1 or 3 maps,
*'''"Medium Scale"''' for 4 or 5 maps,
*'''"Large Scale"''' for 6 or 7 maps.
Event maps pose considerably higher challenge compared to normal maps, employing exclusive [[Boss|Abyssal Bosses]] and [[#Event Mechanics|mechanics]], such as [[Combined Fleet]]s.
