Zarok's role in Resurrection is expanded upon, but still remains rather unchanged. He appears in many more cutscenes than in the original game. Before the events of the game, he trapped the genie [[Al-Zalam]] inside Dan's head. | Zarok's role in Resurrection is expanded upon, but still remains rather unchanged.

Just like in the original game, Zarok began experimenting on the bodies of the dead and was banished from the land. He created an army of demons and marched onto Gallowmere with it, but his army was eventually defeated. He fled from the battlefield and went into hiding for a 100 years. He then returns and wreaks havoc upon Gallowmere once again. | Just like in the original game, Zarok began experimenting on the bodies of the dead and was banished from the land.

His goal is the same. Unlike in the original, his lair is a giant island based around a volcano that floats in the sky. During the final battle, he turns into a huge, monstrous snake. After being defeated, he casts a spell that slowly destroys his lair. He is then crushed by a statue of himself. | His goal is the same.
