However, services for the game were shut down on September 21, 2023. As reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.invenglobal.com\/articles\/27757\/teasing-a-comeback-for-10th-anniversary-com2us-opens-teaser-site-for-destiny-child-assemble\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Inven Global<\/a>, Com2uS signed an agreement for development and publishing rights for the IP in November 2024, hinting that the franchise would be making a return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The teaser trailer for Destiny Child: Assemble was released roughly ten years after the original Destiny Child\u2019s launch. It starts with the statement that \u201ceverything is inevitable,\u201d before unveiling a relic known as the Ressurection Flower. The teaser ends with the sentence \u201cDo you remember our pact?,\u201d alluding to the original\u2019s central theme of demons forming pacts with humans to create Childs, humanoid familiars that serve as the game\u2019s collectible characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Destiny Child: Assemble will retain the original game\u2019s storyline and world while introducing new plotlines . These potentially include character stories that unlock once you obtain that specific Child. While the original featured real-time combat with skills and quick time events, this new game will apparently focus on an \u201cidle\u201d format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Destiny Child: Assemble is set to release in the first half of 2027 for iOS and Android.
