MEDIEVIL

FORMAT PS4 / ETA 31 OCT PUB SONY / DEV OTHER OCEAN INTERACTIVE

“LIKE TIM BURTON MAKING UP GHOST STORIES WITH TERRY PRATCHETT.”

Twenty years ago Sir Daniel Fortesque became an unlikely PlayStation icon. He was old, far from heroic, and very much dead. MediEvil became a cult classic nonetheless, and the fact that two decades on Sony’s bringing this game back for a remake suggests the company is in full swagger and seeking new ways to celebrate its history.

The team breathing HD life the whimsical humour of this classic – it’s like Tim Burton telling ghost stories to Terry Pratchett, who makes them funny. They’re also clear about making sure this hero comes back with all his marbles.
