The story for ''MediEvil: Fate's Arrow'' was originally conceptualised back in 2003 as a sequel to ''[[MediEvil 2]]''. The comic book version does feature significant changes from the original outline however. The story takes place over the course of two days instead of three weeks, Kiya is not revealed to be the evil sorceress [[Kiyante]] and many characters and locations do not appear in the comic, likely to keep the story more focused and concise. | The story for ''MediEvil: Fate's Arrow'' was originally conceptualised back in 2003 as a sequel to ''[[MediEvil 2]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|title = MediEvil 3: Fate’s Arrow|site = Unseen64|url=https://www.unseen64.net/2016/04/19/medievil-3-fate-arrow-ps2-cancelled/}}</ref> The comic book version does feature significant changes from the original outline however.
