In pre-release builds of ''MediEvil'' dating as far back as August 1997, Zarok's Beast Transformation featured a pair of breasts.{{Gameref|Rolling-Demo}} This is because this form of Zarok was based on a [[wikipedia:Figurehead (object)|ship's figurehead]]. The entity '''GsZarHead''', a [[The Ghost Ship|Ghost Ship]] version of Zarok's Beast Transformation, can be found in the '''GS.BIN''' overlay in the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]'', suggesting that Zarok was set to appear in this level at some point.{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha}}{{clear}}

It is unknown whether this form of Zarok was already set to be the game's final boss or not at the time. The breasts were removed from Zarok's model in build 0.41D, just 48 days before the final game version was made.
 
The WIP version of Zarok's Beast Transformation in the ''MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha'' has 23 animations:
