Platinum Games announced the shoot ’em up, Sol Cresta, will launch for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam in 2021.
Sol Cresta was first shown as an April Fools’ Day joke in 2020, but it now appears to be a real game. A trailer was posted that has since been pulled, however, it ended with the text "now in development," according to Gematsu.
The game takes inspiration from the classic shoot ’em up games Moon Cresta and Terra Cresta. It is the first game in the Neo Classic Arcade series.
