+The ''MediEvil'' remake received a mixed reception from critics. Review aggregate websites such as Metacritic, OpenCritic, the Russian Критиканство, as well as the now-defunct Game Rankings, all placed the game at an average score of around 67/100.<ref name="Metacritic"/><ref name="OpenCritic"/><ref name="Kritikanstvo"/><ref name="Game Rankings"/>
+GamStat, a website which estimated total player counts for PlayStation games, indicated that ''MediEvil'' was most popular in Czechia and Slovakia.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210417001110/https://gamstat.com/games/MediEvil/|site=GamStat (archived version)|title=MediEvil}}</ref> This was likely due to the game being fully dubbed in the Czech language; most PlayStation games only receive Czech subtitles, if they are localised at all.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.playstation.com/cs-cz/local/cz-hry/|site=PlayStation|title=Lokalizované hry (Česká republika)|retrieved=May 4, 2024}}</ref>{{Note|name="czech"|The page about Czech localisations on the PlayStation website erroneously lists ''MediEvil'' as only having Czech subtitles.}}
 ===Sales===
 Sales numbers for the remake were not officially released. However, in December 2023, a data leak from Insomniac Games was published online.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.pcmag.com/news/ouch-hackers-leak-16tb-of-data-stolen-from-sonys-insomniac-games|site=PCMag|title=Ouch: Hackers Leak 1.6TB of Data Stolen From Sony's Insomniac Games|author=Kan, Michael|published=December 19, 2023|retrieved=April 28, 2024}}</ref> Part of this leak were sales data for first party Sony titles, including the ''MediEvil'' remake.
