The game ends service on November 30, with the project's final event before hiatus scheduled for the second half of 2025
Producer Nano Kitaoka announced on the official website of the boy band project Bushiroad from Argonavis (formerly Argonavis from BanG Let's Dream!) on Monday that the game application Argonavis-Kimi ga Mita Stage e-( Argonavis-To the Stage You Envisioned-) will end service on November 30. The entire Argonavis project will then be on “indefinite hiatus” in 2025.

Kitaoka explained that although the overall project includes other content such as live concert performances, the game serves as the core of the project's character content. When the game ends, employees can choose to completely end the overall project or continue it in a reduced or altered format. Instead, the staff decided to put the project on hold, believing it had a chance to come back and expand after a “recharge” period.
The project will continue to release music on CD and streaming services until then, then hold a final event before going on hiatus in the second half of 2025.
The Argonavis-Kimi ga Mita Stage e-app launches for iOS and Android on February 7.

Bushiroad announced the Argonavis team in May 2018. Argonavis from BanG Dream! The television anime premiered in April 2020 as part of the “Super Animeism” programming block on MBS, TBS, and 26 other channels across Japan. The story follows both the bands Argonavis and GYROAXIA.
The television anime compilation film Gekijōban Argonavis: Ryūsei no Obligato later premiered in November 2021 with some new footage. Kishō Taniyama plays Kōga Iryū, father of GYROAXIA member Nayuta Asahi and lead vocalist of Syana, the first Japanese band to achieve worldwide success. The voice actors re-recorded their lines for the compilation film, and Argonavis performed the theme song.
Bushiroad and DeNA have launched their Argonavis from BanG Dream! Smartphone rhythm adventure game AAside on iOS and Android devices in January 2021. The game previously ended service in January 2022.
Bushiroad has established a wholly owned subsidiary of Argonavis from BanG Dream! project in 2021 and renamed the project”from Argonavis.”
Gekijō-ban Argonavis Axia (Argonavis the Movie: Axia), an anime film about Argonavis, GYROAXIA and other music artists, premiered in March 2023 after several delays.
