MediEvil is a 2019 action-adventure game developed by Other Ocean Emeryville and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4. The player controls the protagonist, Sir Daniel Fortesque through a series of levels, using various weapons to fight enemies as well as encountering non-playable characters. It is a remake of MediEvil, which was originally developed by British video game developer SCE Cambridge Studio and released for the PlayStation in 1998. The MediEvil remake was released in October 2019.
The developers of the MediEvil remake took advantage of the advances in technology since the original MediEvil to enhance aspects of the game, while trying to avoid straying too far from the presentation of the original game for the remake. Additional features not present in the original game were included in the MediEvil remake.
The MediEvil remake was first announced as a remaster of MediEvil in late 2017. It was later reannounced as a remake in late 2018. Various bonus content was included in special versions of the game.
MediEvil received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the game's presentation, but criticized some aspects of its gameplay.
