It quickly reaches 100 signatures.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.change.org/p/sony-remaster-medievil-and-medievil-ii-for-the-playstation-4|site=Change.org|title=Remaster MediEvil and MediEvil II for the PlayStation 4|published=October 29, 2017|retrieved=October 15, 2024|quote=The MediEvil series was one of Sony's first IPs - released in 1998, it, as well as its sequel, MediEvil II, were huge hits across Europe and the United States, and are fondly remembered by many PlayStation fans, even today.<br><br>In 2005, MediEvil: Resurrection was released on the PSP. A remake of the original title, it was the last major MediEvil title to be released. Since then, the MediEvil IP has gotten very little representation from Sony, peaking at a small role in 2012's "PlayStation All Stars: Battle Royale".<br><br>We believe this to be a mistake, and we, as a fanbase, want more MediEvil games for the PlayStation 4. The original two MediEvil titles on the PlayStation were huge hits, and we think that it would be an intelligent business move to bring the series back. We believe that the smartest way to capitalize on this would be to remaster MediEvil and MediEvil II in a similar fashion to "Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy". Thus, we submit this petition.}}</ref> | ||

- ↑ "The MediEvil series was one of Sony's first IPs - released in 1998, it, as well as its sequel, MediEvil II, were huge hits across Europe and the United States, and are fondly remembered by many PlayStation fans, even today.
In 2005, MediEvil: Resurrection was released on the PSP. A remake of the original title, it was the last major MediEvil title to be released. Since then, the MediEvil IP has gotten very little representation from Sony, peaking at a small role in 2012's "PlayStation All Stars: Battle Royale".
We believe this to be a mistake, and we, as a fanbase, want more MediEvil games for the PlayStation 4. The original two MediEvil titles on the PlayStation were huge hits, and we think that it would be an intelligent business move to bring the series back. We believe that the smartest way to capitalize on this would be to remaster MediEvil and MediEvil II in a similar fashion to "Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy".
