Sega is delving deep into its enviable IP archive to bring the world an animated adaptation of its 1989 side-scrolling arcade beat-'em-up Golden Axe.
Sega's Golden Axe series is being developed by Comedy Central, and promises to be a"hilarious and loving homage" to the medieval fantasy games. It'll follow veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare, and Gilius Thunderhead - all once again venturing forth to save Yuria from the evil giant Death Adder - and they'll be joined by"inexperienced and underprepared" first-time adventurer Hampton Squib, who's"dreamt of questing his entire life".
Golden Axe will span ten animated episodes, with American Dad scribe Joe Chandler serving as show runner on the series. Additionally, Comedy Central has revealed a"star-studded" cast, which includes Matthew Rhys , Danny Pudi , Liam McIntyre , Carl Tart , and Lisa Gilroy .Pudi is Hampton Squib, with Rhys starring as Gilius Thunderhead,"a grumpy battle dwarf with exceptionally poor hygiene and a chip on his shoulder".
