No it's not a late April Fools, they even dropped a trailer for it:

"Kamen Rider Kabuto 20th: The One Who Inherits the Heavens"

Limited-time theatrical run begins Friday, November 6th.
Blu-ray & DVD release confirmed for Wednesday, February 10, 2027.

Who will inherit the heavens? Humanity, or the Worms?

I would've posted this in the Upcoming Rider Projects thread since they basically teased this there, but they're using a different website for this one: https://www.toei-video.co.jp/vcinext-kabuto/

Personal thoughts... I think it looks interesting, the new Rider and a form for Tendou(?) look pretty good, and it's nice they brought back the other riders too

HELL BROTHER IS BACK LFG

Given the name Atlas Zecter, I wonder if this new white Kabuto will be its own thing aka Kamen Rider Atlas or a new power-up, say, Kamen Rider Kabuto Atlas Form, etc.

[Mesnick]

Cool. It's great that they were able to bring back so many actors. It should be interesting.

So I have two questions:
1. Will this be the return of Hiro Mizushima?
2. Why is TheBee doing a Rider Kick?
(Unless it’s Yaguruma, but still)

Did not expect this! But to hear "20th Anniversary" made me remember how old I'm getting. lol

[Sh Ranger]

Now this is the kind of movie I've been waiting for! Kabuto was my second Rider show and while it's not one of my favorites anymore, I do have a lot of good memories about it. If Yonemura's writing once more, hopefully he can make this as awesome as God Speed Love! At least, I hope this will do the show more justice than the disappointing arc in Zi-O.

Considering how Zecters usually work, I'm pretty sure Kamen Rider Atlas is correct. Some people saying he might be Tendo's nephew.

There's also a new green Rider, who appears to be based on a giraffa stag beetle.

Who else could inherit the heavens but the man who walks the path of heaven? I'll have faith in his return.

Who knows? I'm curious to see if The Bee Zecter will finally settle on a user after 20 years though.

I'm a little bummed that this looks to be a lower budget affair than the Agito movie, more in line with the 555 and OOO movies. But Kabuto was the first Rider series I watched weekly, so this is a welcoming gift. And based on the leaks, they are still keeping some surprises at bay.

Apparently, a 20th anniversary Den-O movie was also teased during the event but we don't have anything else to go on from that.

That's also good. Even though Den-O never really leaves the spotlight for long, it's a show that's always fun to watch. And if they can convince Takeru Sato to appear, that would be really cool.
