A Look At MediEvil Remastered
MediEvil Returns, announced at State Of Play to much applause, the game is a direct remake of the original PlayStation game from the 90s
Inspired by Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, MediEvil is a beloved action-adventure series that first appeared on the original PlayStation. The debut title, released in 1998, follows the tale of Sir Daniel Fortesque — a rather unfortunate knight of the kingdom of Gallowmere. Tasked with defending the realm against the evil sorcerer Zarok, poor Sir Dan met an untimely end, struck down by the very first arrow fired in battle.
A century later, in the year 1386, Zarok returns to raise an army of the undead and once again threatens Gallowmere. But his dark magic has an unexpected consequence: it also resurrects Sir Daniel, giving our skeletal hero a second chance to prove his worth and finally earn the glory he was denied in life.
Now, as showcased during the recent State of Play presentation, MediEvil rises once more — fully remade from the grave up. Check out the official video below to see the reimagined adventure in action.
Will Sir Daniel finally defeat the evil sorcerer once again? We certainly can’t wait to find out — it’s been far too long since we last set foot in Gallowmere! Despite the release of MediEvil 2 on PSX and the PSP reimagining MediEvil: Resurrection, the original adventure still remains unmatched (at least in my humble opinion).
The good news is, the wait won’t be long, dear readers — MediEvil rises from the grave once more on October 25th!
