Release Date: TBA 2019

Fists were pumped the world over when Sony finally confirmed the long-requested development of a remake of the 1998 hack and slash PS1 classic MediEvil.

Originally revealed at PSX 2017, word has been relatively quiet on the game since then, though Sony did drop a gameplay trailer last Halloween which appeared to show it in quite an advanced state.

The combat definitely looks a little janky and the frame-rate could be better, but these aren't quite deal-breakers for a fanbase that simply wants to re-experience the original title with a shiny new lick of paint.

The new ground-up assets largely look terrific, and while MediEvil has never enjoyed the fanfare of, say, Crash Bandicoot or Spyro the Dragon, it's nevertheless avidly anticipated by fans of the original.

Just keep your expectations in check in case those initial gripes aren't fixed before release (whenever that might be).
