- ↑ "MediEvil is one of the beloved PlayStation classics whose life was unfortunately cut short early. Last year’s MediEvil PS4 remake resurrected the series and brought a renewed interest in Sir Daniel Fortesque’s adventures. Now some cryptic tweets from the series’ composer hint that a MediEvil 2 remake could be in development. Whether that remake is set for the PS4 sometime this year or coming to the PS5 later is anyone’s guess, but positive reception and traction to the first game seem to have ensured that the sequel is returning as well." — Wood, Chandler, Rumor: MediEvil 2 Remake in Development, According to Cryptic Tweets From Composer on PlayStation LifeStyle.
