Version specific differences
MediEvil (1999 Japanese original)
The level's loading screen was updated to add the helmet on Dan's head. According to the game's designer and art director Jason Wilson, the addition of the helmet into the Japanese version of the game was a stipulation from the studio's Japanese partners, who were concerned that Dan's skeletal head might be seen as that of a bad spirit and not a 'hero' in Japan.[3]
