In January 2017, Sony Interactive Entertainment announced that it was shutting down Guerrilla Cambridge (formerly SCE Cambridge Studio). Nearly two years later, in October 2018, a listing went up on eBay which consisted of assorted items from the former studio, such as printed artwork, newspaper clippings and sheet music. However, chief among them were 25 discs containing prototype builds of the first MediEvil. The lot was successfully acquired by the R.D.K.S Team who released it on Archive.org on March 31, 2019.

Despite there being 25 discs in total, 7 of them are duplicates of other discs in the lot. The remaining 18 discs span a period of 3 months, from June to August 1998, allowing for a detailed look into SCE Cambridge Studio's development process.
