    A great remake of a classic! The only thing I would warn everybody about is that it still has a few wierd bugs (although nothing game-crashing as far as I know) which make the experience a little frustrating at times.

    Este remake fue algo bastante raro. Es de gran calidad, como ya lo era el original... pero parece un juego de esa generación con los gráficos de esta. Es decir, no se ha adaptado a los nuevos tiempos en ciertos aspectos que se deberían haber pulido. También, el rendimiento en PS4 era bastante malo, joder.

    This remake of the 1998 classic is faithful to a fault. Other than the gorgeous new graphics, the game is basically the same. That translates to the controls feeling kind of outdated for today’s standards but, as a fan of the classic, this was a nostalgic dream.

You get great awards and prizes for collecting chalices, not to mention the great final reward for completing the end game content (no spoilers).

    Das Original ist eines, wenn nicht sogar DAS Lieblingsspiel von mir. Trotzdem muss ich gestehen, dass mir die Neuinterpretation in Resurrection damals besser gefiel. Hier sieht wirklich alles super aus und die Synchro ist identisch zum Original, aber irgendwie war ich nicht so sehr begeistert wie es erhofft hatte. Es ist definitiv ein gutes Spiel, aber für mich nicht das beste Medievil Remake.

    Buen Remake. La jugabilidad no es la mejor ya que ha envejecido un poco mal, pero es que es la que es igual que la del Crash que sin embargo pues ha envejecido bien. Pero graficamente es muy bueno verlo limpio de poligonos y con el doblaje original que es un puntazo... Remake como he dicho bien. Bueno.

    Turno para un remake del clásico del catálogo de la ya lejana PS1, Medievil. Una aventura que mezcla géneros, como el hack and slash, la exploración, los puzzles y las plataformas con una estética de terror inspirada en halloween.

Una aventura que mezcla géneros, como el hack and slash, la exploración, los puzzles y las plataformas con una estética de terror inspirada en halloween. Encarnamos a Sir Daniel Fortesque, un personaje icónico en el mundo de los videojuegos, un torpe caballero que en vida lideró las defensas del reino de Gallowmere contra la invasión de las huestes el malvado nigromante Zarok. No le fue del todo bien al bueno de Daniel, que aunque lo intentó con valentía, murió a las primeras de cambio atravesado por una flecha en su ojo. No obstante, la amenaza fue rechazada por sus compañeros, pero años despues Zarok vuelve con más fuerza, levantando a los muertos, entre ellos a Daniel, que defenderá, ahora sí, su muerto reino de la maldad y los oscuros planes de Zarok.

    Se trata del segundo remake de este clásico exclusivo de Sony. El primero se denominó MediEvil Resurrection y salió en exclusiva para PSP. No lo he jugado, por lo que no lo puedo comparar. Pero sí que jugué y bastante el original de PS1. Lo que tenemos aquí es básicamente el mismo juego con un lavado de cara inmenso. Los gráficos se han hecho de 0, esa es la principal novedad del remake, porque lo demás, salvo alguna cosa que se me escape es exactamente lo mismo. Mismos recorridos, enemigos, jefes..... dificultad y jugabilidad. No se ha pulido esta ni lo más mínimo, el control es calcado, y con ello tambien han calcado algunos defectos del juego original. Como por ejemplo, que pierdas al final de un nivel la última de tus vidas contra el jefe, al que te ha costado sangre, sudor y lágrimas llegar y de una hostia te mate y tengas que volver a empezar porque el sistema de guardado es como antaño, solo graba cuando sales del nivel triunfante. Ojo si sales antes de salir triunfante no graba, al loro, lo pierdes todo. ¿Este hecho hace que el juego sea una mierda? Para nada, el juego es original y bastante bueno y un clásico por derecho propio. De hecho tambien hay que mencionar la sensación de logro que produce superar o desatascar ese nivel en el que llevas días preguntándote por la estrategia correcta, qué haces mal, por qué te matan con tanta facilidad.

    Como todos los juegos MediEvil hay que entenderlo. A su manera tiene un sistema de progresión. Es indispensable explorar correctamente, matar a todos los enemigos del nivel, esto es, llenar todos los cálices de los niveles para obtener las mejoras de armas, items y vida que otorgan. No es una misión secundaria, para nada, es casi obligatorio porque de lo contrario de ese nivel puñetero no pasas. La exploración es una mecánica esencial en este título. Es cierto que los escenarios son como pequeños laberintos a veces, pero ahí está tambien la gracia, si pusieran un pasillo desde el inicio hasta el jefe sí que sería una puta mierda, ¿no?

    En definitiva tenemos un buen juego, no una obra maestra. Puede que lo llegara a ser en PS1, pero actualmente la jugabilidad puede resentirse y verse como anticuada. Eso sí, el apartado artístico es impecable, desde la estética de pelí de terror de animación para halloween, hasta la música que suena sublime todo el juego. Hay niveles cuyo diseño os llamarán poderosamente la atención, hay imaginación y mucha en MedieEvil. Si conoces el clásico de PS1 y la nostalgia te puede, pruébalo, te va a gustar. De lo contrario, dependerá de tu tolerancia con ciertas limitaciones heredadas de la versión original que puede que no sean del gusto de los jugadores más modernos.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. MediEvil is flawed but fun remake of 1998 classic, MediEvil. Compared to other remakes on PS4 such as Ratchet & Clank (which also a bit of re-imagining), MediEvil sticks very true to its source material, which is major positive. What is not a positive is some dated mechanics it keeps intact, such going back to previous levels just to re-fill health, which is not good game design, it wasn't in the 1990s, and its worse in 2010s. Mechanics such as this offer no challenge, just waste your time. The game also looks really good a lot of times in the graphics, art-style and resolution departments, sometimes rivaling other major "cartoony" gaming IPs, although the resolution on some objects its lower than things around it (for example a single character on screen appears to be lower resolution than another character on screen and/or the background). I also appreciate the devs attempting to target 60fps... unfortunately, the game often suffers some of worst framerate drops I've seen in a game this gen.

    Overall the game is held up by fun gameplay, interesting level design, great progression system, charming world and characters, neat music, and overall 1990s game design that is sorely missed in 1910s, even if the remake stumbles in more areas than it should.

    One other thing this game has going for it, is the original game from which the remake is based off is present in the game as an award for completing a side-quest (this is new to the remake). Very few remakes although you to play the original, so props off to the developers who really cared about this project.    … Expand

    This is a really similar experience to the PSX game. Which is cool in some ways, but lackluster overall for a remake. After so many years, I think we should expect some issues to be fixed, such as the camera ones. Enjoyed it because it's Medievil, but it doesn't offer a lot more than the original version.

There is a wide range of different kinds of levels and they're all relatively short and not too hard. A few of them were a little annoying and made me wish they had some kind of check point though. That's because those levels were a little bit more involved. They have the player backtrack or look for items in different areas to progress. If you die, you'd have to start all over again. Some levels could have used a little more guidance on what the objective was to complete them too.

    Controls are janky. You'll be taking hits from enemies when you think you shouldn't. I wasn't sure if certain weapons were weaker or stronger than others. I figured if it was a new weapon then it must be better than what I had currently, but sometimes enemies would still take a bunch of hits. Maybe there should have been some kind of description of strength level in the inventory? Also the targeting when using long range weapons is bad because there is NO targeting so you can't just run and gun while you run away. You have to be facing your target.

    The camera gets horrendous at times. Sometimes it feels too zoomed in or out. So you might take some unnecessary hits from an enemy you can't see off screen.

    Overall, it's an okay game but it has some problems that should have been fixed for the PS4 remake.    … Expand

    Very fun game to play but there were a few glitches they could’ve done with sorting out. Can understand why people who played the PS1 version gave it 9/10 out of 10.

Found no faults, graphics great - same for the game play...The things that disappointed me is the motion blur (no patch for this never came) as i would only spend no more than 45min / an hour max playing it and no checkpoint save which is very very frustrating especially in certain levels.

    The clear drawbacks on this title are his clunky PS1 controls and his horrible camera system, that will cost you more life bottles and game overs than the enemies. I can more or less understand that they have not included a "Z targeting" system to be true to the original and have the funny "smash square while running " combats but why on earth keep the fix camera that make the slippery platforms almost a souls-like?

    - Narrativa: Buena-Mantiene en vilo de principio a fin
    - Jugabilidad: Irregular- La accion es divertida y eliminar a los enemigos mola, pero en ocasiones resulta complicado atacarles ya sea por la camara o porque el juego no esta diseñado a que vengan varios enemigos a la vez, siendo complicado salir indemne. La plataforma es totalmente insatisfactoria.

    - Universo: Único-un mundo especial, nunca antes visto y que abre mi imaginación a un punto que yo no concebía
    - Banda Sonora: Se adapta bien y no desentona en ningun momento

    Tiene un encanto especial Medievil, es un juego con un claro toque tenebroso, donde el protagonista se enfrenta a enemigos clasicos de peliculas de terror, pero todo con un aire desenfadado (hasta infantil se podria decir). Resulta divertido de jugar con ganas de ver el proximo entorno al que te enfrentas, pero le falta un reto jugable superior ya que al final uno escoge la mejor arma blanca o de distancia y no hace mayores analisis de estrategia antes los enemigos. El juego falla claramente en el plataformeo y en la camara. Sir Daniel Fortesque tiene carisma y uno entiende el impacto alla en 1998, pero no lo veo para hacer una saga o tercera entrega con estos mimbres, algo debiles para aguantar mas de una entrega.    … Expand

    It was a ps1 good game and it is still Very funny. For 2019 the remake is really poor and quite sufficient.

    It is a fun game. But it feels dated... I enjoyed for a while.
    Maybe if they improved the mechanics would have been better

    As other reviewers stated, nothing much has changed in quality of life from the original, framerate can be at points unbearable. 60 fps should have been the norm for this game.

    While it is very good to be able to play as Sir Daniel Fortesque again after so many decades (I was 8 when played both games on the PSOne) it is hard to deny that the gameplay needed an overhaul and what we eventually got was a careless rehash of the original. Don't get me wrong, it was an amazing game for it's time, but not all of them age very well and Medievil needed some new mechanicsWhile it is very good to be able to play as Sir Daniel Fortesque again after so many decades (I was 8 when played both games on the PSOne) it is hard to deny that the gameplay needed an overhaul and what we eventually got was a careless rehash of the original.

The new graphics are amazing though… Expand

    Decent action platformer with gameplay similar to Ratchet and Clank or the old Maximo games on the PS2. It has some light platforming, puzzles, and RPG elements along with the combat mixed together in an agreeable stew of gameplay.

    A decent enough game that's ruined a bit too much by dodgy controls, terrible ranged weapon targeting and poor platforming. Had all this stuff been tight then the difficulty of starting a level with the little health you finished the last one could have been forgiven, but it just makes a game you dont really want to play, take longer.

The frame rate can feel horrible at times, the camera is clunky, there are so few checkpoints when needed (such as before a difficult boss fight) which leads to a lot of frustrating replaying and backtracking. The game just feels OLD still, like a visually upgraded PS1 game, with no issues fixed. I feel like they could’ve done a lot more to modernize this game. LIKE PUTTING IN MORE CHECKPOINTS!! Sometimes you’ll need a shield, such as this one level where you must search these underground corridors for items, and you’ll find nothing. It can also be difficult, and not a fair kind of difficult. The game can be awesome at times, the characters are really unique, the design of the world is incredible, but still. Sometimes the visuals are razor sharp and quick, but other times, the textures and frame rate are abysmal. For $30 I’d say it’s a good pickup for collectors, but if you don’t have any nostalgia for this series, I’d say skip it. Or at least prepare yourself for some frustration instead. Get Crash Team Racing instead, it’s a much better remake than this.… Expand

    This game did not age well. The gameplay mechanics are dated, the hit detection is poor, the objectives are not fun to do, the difficulty is uneven, and the checkpoint system is atrocious. I can keep going. It’s just not a fun experience. I wanted to like it so much but after a few hours I had to put it down out of frustration. It’s definitely not what I was expecting.

    As someone who absolutely loved the PS1 original back in the day and also enjoyed the PSP psuedo remake I have to say that this game is just one giant missed opportunity.

What was once a chatming and unique Tim Burtonesque 3d platformer in the late 90s is noe a clunky tedious mess that will only appeal to those who are nostalgic for the original. Its a shame that the devs didnt do more because this remake couldve reinvigorated the franchise.… Expand

    More than 20 years after its released on PlayStation 1, Medievil is back from the dead on PS4. Unfortunately, it looks much more like a remastered version than a full fledged remake. It shines with colorful graphics and spooky atmosphere, but its gameplay remains too rigid, and its mechanics haven't aged well. A title reserved for fans of the license or lovers of Halloween and «The Nightmare Before Christmas».

    It's a short, but very intense adventure, with brief cinematics, compact maps without padding or copy/pasted elements. It brings a lot of variety into the world teeming with bland "sandboxes".

    If you disregard the nostalgia factor, the game is anything but extraordinary. It won’t win over new, younger players... but on the other hand they are not the target audience. [13/2019, p.78]
