The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage Scaling Down

Bandai Namco has announced that it will start scaling down its operations for The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage. There will be no more new songs, idol costumes, and dialogues added after the game’s 10th anniversary on September 3, 2025. In addition, Bandai Namco and DMM Games will take down the PC version on August 21, 2025.

Bandai Namco had also added crossover content to the long-running game alternatively known as DereSute, such as cover songs from Key’s visual novels in 2020 and the appearance of Hololive’s Hoshimachi Suisei in 2024. However, this content will also be gradually phased out. Haruhi Suzumiya’s songs will be the first to be removed on July 31, 2025. All other cover songs will follow suit the month after, on August 31, 2025.

But even though Bandai Namco is gradually scaling down Starlight Stage, the company promises that it will continue producing new songs that feature Cinderella Girls idols. It is also planning to hold new xR live concerts in the near future.

The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage will remain playable for Android and iOS devices for the foreseeable future, although there will be no more new content added after September 3, 2025. The game’s PC version on DMM Games will only be available until August 21, 2025.
