Sega's old-school beat-'em-up Golden Axe being turned into an animated series
Sega is delving deep into its enviable IP archive to bring the world an animated adaptation of its 1989 arcade beat-'em…
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". Additionally, Comedy Central has revealed a "star-studded" cast, which includes Matthew Rhys (The Americans), Danny Pudi (Community, Mythic Quest), Liam McIntyre (Spartacus), Carl Tart (Star Trek: Lower Decks), and Lisa Gilroy (Glamorous). Gilroy is Tyris Flare, a "fearsome battle sorceress, deadly in a fight and even deadlier with her sharp wit”, while McIntyre is Ax Battler, "a barbarian warrior with a strict code of honour and sweet golden retriever demeanour".
