Publisher anCHOR and developer Project L.A. have announced Destiny Code, a new card battling RPG with bishojo themes.
Destiny Code is in development for Windows PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store) and will launch globally later in 2025, via early access.
The game will be in early access for at least one year, and the current build includes seven unique playable characters, each with a distinct background and combat style, reflected in their exclusive cards (Arts). The core gameplay is already complete and the main story goes up to Chapter 2, including individual character events (Premium Events) and sub-events. You can also collect and craft artifacts (equipment), and take on free missions.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its reveal trailer:
Destiny Code is a card battle RPG woven with bishojo! In a clash over the relics of a lost civilization, what choices will they make? A dramatic chronicle where strategy and decisions shape fate.
A school life spent with cute and beautiful girls!
As an agent of the “Ancient Prehistoric Civilization Central Intelligence Executive Agency,” Hart Grancer is a former boy mercenary who has infiltrated the “Academy,” a.k.a. the teaching institution of the subordinate organization.
He is assigned to teach a group of girls who have some mysterious reason to be there, as well as to take on assignments from the Administration.
Then one day, a new mission comes along – the discovery and recovery of the “Grimforge.” But that was also the beginning of a huge conspiracy.
Features
- Premium Events – In the midst of the bustling days, a quiet pause gently appears. There, you’ll see a gesture they usually hide, or a smile that escapes before they notice. Moments that quietly bring you closer to the girls—a fleeting promise of a future not yet named.
- Card Battles – Use the cards that reflect the personalities and skills of your friends to win the battle!
- Battle Features – New cards are added to your hand by your actions in battle. Do you take the best action now? Or prepare for the next battle? Watch for opportunities and build your deck during battle!
- Make a Character “Yours” – Artifacts can be equipped to compensate for weaknesses or develop more individuality. Strengthen your favorite character as much as possible! In addition, artifacts can be synthesized! You can create new artifacts that inherit your desired abilities!
Project.L.A Developer’s Comment
I found myself getting together. We found ourselves making it. Battles, drama, friendship, and a little bit of crying– We packed it all into this work.
