SIE recently released two short videos in a series called “A Bonehead’s Guide to Gallowmere.” The trailers showcase some of the basics you’ll need to master if you want to survive — if an undead skeleton can survive? — for very long in Gallowmere.
First up is the shield instruction video. Every good knight needs a sturdy shield, and Sir Daniel Fortesque is no different. His shields can even repel giant rocks, he’s that good.
The trouble is actually finding a shield and then not letting it break.
The next video guide covers the game’s two main perspectives: overhead, similar to the PSX original, and over the shoulder.
The over the shoulder perspective gives players a much different view of Gallowmere, showing off the richly detailed environments and character models, plus lending a completely different air to the game’s action.
These modes can be swapped at will, whether you just want to change things up or genuinely need to get a different view of the world around you.
MediEvil on PS4 launches October 25. If you haven’t grabbed your copy yet, check out our MediEvil pre-order guide to find out where you can snag it before release.
