MediEvil Remake Receives Epic Gameplay Trailer (VIDEO)

Folks that were gaming during the early days of the original PlayStation console may remember a gem of a game called MediEvil, which featured a recently brought back from the dead knight by the name of Sir Daniel Fortesque in his quest to defeat the evil sorcerer Lord Zarok. Recently celebrating its 20th anniversary, Sony’s Shawn Layden announced at PlayStation Experience 2017 that a remaster for the game was in the works, much to the excitement of fans looking to take up the mantle of our beloved – if extremely unlucky – undead knight. Now, Sony has released a full-length gameplay trailer for the upcoming title, which features some impressive comparison shots between the original and the PS4 game. Check it out below:

Back at PSX 2017, Layden labeled the upcoming title as a remaster, though he has since changed his wording to call it a “full remake of the original PS1 classic.” Here’s Layden’s breakdown of the MediEvil remake per a recent Sony blog post:

“MediEvil follows the story of Sir Dan, an unlikely champion who met an unfortunate end on the field of battle. He receives a chance at redemption when his nemesis, the evil sorcerer Lord Zarok, accidentally resurrects him 100 years after that fateful day. Lord Zarok seeks to conquer the Kingdom of Gallowmere, and only the skeletal Sir Dan stands between Zarok’s army of the undead and the kingdom he swore to protect.

Whether you picked up the original or never heard of the original, we know you’ll love the sword swinging, perilous puzzles and enchanting environments. Brought back to life by our International Software Development team in partnership with Other Ocean Interactive, this a full remake of the original PS1 classic – with all of the scarecrows, zombies, werewolves, and mace-wielding knights lurking in the kingdom with more detail and personality than ever before.”

The MediEvil remake will release at some point in 2019 exclusively for the PlayStation 4.
