MediEvil 2 shifts the action to Victorian London with the ever-endearing Sir Dan. More varied settings, new weapons and improved mechanics. Less groundbreaking than the first but retains the gothic charm and offbeat humor that made the series successful on PS1.

Description
European sequel to MediEvil by SCE Cambridge Studio, where Sir Daniel Fortesque returns to save Victorian London from a new undead invasion at the turn of the 20th century. Created by SCE Cambridge Studio and Sony Computer Entertainment, released in 2000 in Europe and Russia under the MediEvil 2 title. Over twenty London- and gothic-themed levels, new Victorian arsenal including blunderbusses, macabre humor, contextual puzzles and Andrew Barnabas and Paul Arnold's orchestral score. European edition under the MediEvil 2 title.
A sequel transposing the skeleton knight into a fantastical Victorian London, extending the macabre humor and singular mood of the first. Still common in the West, it owes its interest to the continuity of a cult series and its original setting rather than scarcity. A piece valued by Sir Daniel fans, accessible for completing the line on the console.
Is MediEvil 2 still worth playing in 2026?
MediEvil 2 moves the action to Victorian London with Sir Dan still as endearing. More varied sets (West End, Tower Bridge, Whitechapel), new weapons and improved mechanics, Sony Cambridge's title prolongs the original formula successfully. Less revolutionary than the first but quality maintained. An excellent pick today.
