Enjoy EVERYTHING that SOL CRESTA has to offer! Get the SOL CRESTA Complete Set at a great new price that offers the slick and speedy gameplay of the main game's Arcade Mode, the densely woven story of the Dramatic DLC, and the Legendary Fighters DLC that includes the legendary fighters from the CRESTA series.

Legendary fighters from the CRESTA series are back and yours to maneuver as you try and stop Mega Zofer’s conquest of the solar system. These 3 additional fighters can also be used for score rankings in Caravan Mode. The icon of the fighter used will be recorded along with your high score. Challenge yourself and see how much performance you can bring out of these legendary fighters, which are different to the Yamato fighters in many ways. CR47

The main fighter from Moon Cresta is back in all its former glory for you to pilot! Picking up a special CR47 Emblem will cause your allied fighters to appear. Dock with fighters II and III to power up your craft, just like in Moon Cresta. The CR47 can perform Charge Shots and perhaps even turn into a phoenix SOL CRESTA-style?! Wing Galiber

The main fighter from Terra Cresta is miraculously back to fly one more time! Just as in Terra Cresta, dock with 5 of your ally fighters that appear from the hangar and experience a variety of different attack variations. Of course, the Formation Attack and phoenix are back! Wing Galiber II

The main fighter from Terra Cresta II: Mandler no Gyakushuu, making its long-awaited return to battle. In addition to its Formation Attack and the legendary Firebird Attack, numerous special attacks have been carefully revived, such as Fire Formation, Formation Shot, and P.R.B. (Phoenix Rolling Bomber).

This demo allows you to enjoy Stage 1 of SOL CRESTA's Arcade Mode, as well as a part of Stage 1 of the SOL CRESTA Dramatic DLC Dramatic Mode. *Scores from the demo version will not be saved or uploaded to online rankings. *Some aspects of the demo may differ from the full version of the game. *The purchase of both SOL CRESTA and the SOL CRESTA Dramatic DLC are required to enjoy Dramatic Mode in the full version of the game.

PlatinumGames’ NEO-CLASSIC ARCADE series carries on the spirit and fun of classic gaming using modern technology, and the first project in this endeavor is SOL CRESTA. SOL CRESTA takes the docking and formation strategies of classic shooting games Moon Cresta and Terra Cresta and elevates them with the “free-form docking” system. The flagship Yamato, composed of the fighters Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susano can utilize various attacks depending on how the three ships are aligned. Docking, splitting, and reforming the ships as needed is the key to defeating the invading armies of Mega Zofer.
