The 1998 PlayStation 1 cult classic MediEvil is in line for its ground-up remake later this year, and though it might not be the most high-profile game one could think of, the original title has enough of a dedicated fanbase for the upcoming remake to still be a game that many are looking forward to.

In anticipation of its upcoming launch, Sony has put up a developer diary that takes us behind the scenes at Other Ocean Interactive – the developers of the remake. The video talks about how its balancing replicating the original game and changing things up, while also discussing things such as being able to do things that the original game wanted to do but was unable to due to various reasons. The developers in the video also speak about how they’ve been in contact with various developers who worked on the original game, and how that has aided the remake’s development. Take a look below.

MediEvil is out on the PS4 on October 25th. You can view some off-screen gameplay footage from it through here.
