Development of ''MediEvil: Resurrection'' began in June of 2003. Despite the success of the original game, the reimagining was not created by Chris Sorrell or the original PS1 team. Instead, Sorrell was instructed by his studio management to work on a different Sony project, which became ''24: The Game''. Since the release of the ''MediEvil'' reimagining, Sorrell has expressed disappointment with the changes to the game and the fact that his superiors did not allow him to direct it. | Development of ''MediEvil: Resurrection'' began in June of 2003.

Mitch Phillips, who was the character animator for the previous ''MediEvil'' games, was appointed as lead artist for'' Resurrection.'' He was also the only core member from the original team to return. According to producer Piers Jackson, the thrust of the design was to make ''MediEvil: Resurrection'' completely different from the original game. Jackson stated that everything had been created from scratch, and ideas that they thought worked well in the original were altered or repositioned to keep the game fresh, even to those who had played the original. The addition of the Anubis Stone sub-plot was to strengthen the story arc and the creation of Al-Zalam was to act as Dan's internal monologue and the player's guide. | ||
