About

A port of MediEvil 2, enhanced with up-rendering, rewind, quick save, and custom video filters. MediEvil 2, or MediEvil II in its NA release, is an action-adventure game originally developed by SCE Cambridge Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. Released in 2000 for the PlayStation, it is a sequel to the original MediEvil and continues the story of Sir Daniel Fortesque. Set in Victorian-era London, the game follows Sir Dan as he is resurrected once again to stop a sorcerer named Lord Palethorn, who has unleashed chaos by reanimating the dead using pages from Zarok's spellbook. The gameplay combines hack-and-slash combat, exploration, and puzzle-solving, with new weapons, levels, and enemies. The game introduces unique features such as a ghostly ally, Kiya, and new mechanics like controlling Dan’s detached head for specific puzzles.
