Did you know? A book found in the museum in MediEvil 2 (which takes place in 1886) mentions a kraken being caught off the coast of Bognor Regis. In the real world, Bognor only earned the suffix "Regis" (of the King) in 1929 after King George V spent several months at a seaside resort there.

Look at this very old trailer for MediEvil, dating back to March 18, 1997. Possibly the earliest surviving footage of the game. The version shown off here is known as "MediEvil Milestone 1B.2."

Check out these animals that can be found within the files of a pre-release version of MediEvil! It is unknown what purpose they would have served, but based on them having only one animation, it seems they were purely background elements.

Did you know? Although the Iron Slugger boxing match in MediEvil 2 is always six rounds long, Princess Kiya is programmed to be able to hold up signs beyond that, including numbers 7, 8, 9, and the letter X (used for all rounds beyond round 9). These can be seen by hacking the game.

Did you notice? After you emerge from the Shadow Demon tomb in the Enchanted Earth in the MediEvil remake, the Forest Witch's area will be blocked off. This was likely added to prevent players from losing progress in the level by entering the ants' nest.

Did you know? The Japanese version of MediEvil added an extra hint to the Shadow Demon tomb puzzle in The Enchanted Earth. This was in the form of "notches" around the demon on the wall mural. The notches indicate the order in which to press the buttons.
