===Overview===
According to [[Chris Sorrell]], the game's producer, the trident would've been similar in use to the [[Lightning]]. Based on his recollection, it was removed because of this similarity, and also because the developers found it hard to justify such a weapon.{{Siteref|MediEvil-Boards|12662|MediEvil developers - Q&A;|May 7, 2013|quote=We never got very far with that one. It would most likely have been a ranged weapon - like the lightning - and because of that similarity we decided we didn't need it (or couldn't justify it!).|author=Chris Sorrell}}


In a [[Preview:PlayStation Plus, July 1997|PlayStation Plus magazine preview from July 1997]], the trident is described as a very powerful weapon and immensely difficult to get hold of. It is said to fire guided bolts of energy, with the ability to charge it up to fire an immensely powerful but unguided blast.
====''MediEvil Rolling Demo''====
In the ''[[MediEvil Rolling Demo]]'', the trident only has a melee lunge attack and is unable to harm enemies due to being unfinished.{{Gameref|Rolling-Demo}}
====''MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha''====
[[File:MediEvilECTSPreAlpha-LakeLady-Animation.gif|thumb|right|The Lake Lady hands the trident over.]]The trident's model has been removed from the main [[WAD]] by the time of the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]''. However, within one of the WAD files, a character known as the [[Lake Lady]] can be found. She emerges from The Lake to hand over the trident, suggesting that the weapon would be obtained in that particular level. This would mean that it would only be possible to obtain the trident near the end of the game, as The Lake was the game's penultimate level at this time.{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha}}
