    Appears in

    Bats were small, flying mammals native to some parts of Gallowmere. They could also be summoned by powerful vampires.

    History

    14th century

    In 1386, several bats could be found in Gallowmere. They were inhabiting caves such as the Crystal Caves, as well as abandoned buildings including the Scarecrow Fields' farm houses and the Asylum.

    19th century

    In 1886, the Count, an ancient vampire living in London, had the power to summon giant bats. Upon being defeated by Sir Daniel Fortesque, he also exploded into a flurry of them.

    Gameplay

    MediEvil 2

    The giant bats summoned by the Count are essentially just one of his attacks and thus cannot be considered enemies in their own right. Once the Count releases their fiery variant, they fly towards the ground where they explode. The normal variant simply disappear after flying for a set amount of time. Although they cannot be destroyed, bats can be pushed using weapons such as swords.

    MediEvil (2019 remake)

    Book of Gallowmere entry

    They're vampire bats. Actually, they're just bats. But they bite. That's sort of vampirey.[3][3.1]

    Behind the scenes

    Development

    MediEvil

    In pre-release versions of MediEvil such as the MediEvil Rolling Demo, bats were present in The Ant Caves level.[4] This is because the level did not originally have Dan shrinking down, but was an actual cave of human-sized ants.
