{{Cut content}}'''Dragon Dan''' is a cut gameplay mechanic from ''[[MediEvil]]''. After drinking the [[Potions|Dragon Potion]] power-up, [[Sir Dan]] would transform into a red dragon. According to the game's producer, [[Chris Sorrell]], Dragon Dan was cut due to taking up too much space in memory.{{TwitterRef|Sorrell|1472053476473507843|December 18, 2021|January 4, 2024|quote=…And when I say Dragon Dan, that’s literally what we originally hoped to do - to literally turn him into a dragon version of himself. I guess this was artwork exploring that idea.

Its replacement, the [[Dragon Armour]], utilises the existing Dan model (safe for swapping out a few parts) and only has one unique animation for breathing fire. | {{Cut content}} | ||

The Dragon Dan model can be found inside [[The Gallows Gauntlet]] [[cambridge:WAD|WAD]] file in the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]'', suggesting that this may have been one of the levels, or perhaps the only level, where the Dragon Potion would have appeared.{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha}} | The Dragon Dan model can be found inside [[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha/The Gallows Gauntlet|The Gallows Gauntlet]] [[cambridge:WAD|WAD]] file in the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]'', suggesting that this may have been one of the levels, or perhaps the only level, where the Dragon Potion would have appeared.{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha}} | ||
