Comedy Central announced on Wednesday that it has ordered a 10-episode animated series based on Sega’s Golden Axe video game series.
Sega announced an untitled new entry in the Golden Axe game series at The Game Awards on December 7.
The original Golden Axe video game was released in 1989 by Sega as a side-scrolling beat-em up arcade game.
A hilarious and loving homage to Sega’s 1989 video game series, Golden Axe, from exec producers Mike McMahon and Joe Chandler, follows veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead as they once again battle to save Yuria from the evil giant Death Adder who just won’t seem to stay dead.
