PlatinumGames, in partnership with Hamster, has announced Sol Cresta, a new title that inherits the spirit of classic shoot 'em up games Moon Cresta and Terra Cresta, and the first entry in its "Neo-Classic Arcade" series. It will be available for PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC (Steam).

Sol Cresta was first teased as an April Fools' Day joke in 2020, but now appears to be a real game. The Japanese announcement trailer ends with the text, "now in development."

The fact the series started out with the common name for the Moon, then switched to the formal Latin names for the Earth and Sun for next two, bugs me terribly.

Could be interesting. I've only played Terra Cresta and it was okay. Seems like more and more old shmup IPs are getting dredged up.
