Paramount+ sets September debut for Golden Axe animated series

A new trailer for Sega’s Golden Axe adaptation shows the animated series arriving on Paramount+ on September 16.

Paramount+ will begin streaming a new animated series based on Sega’s Golden Axe games on September 16, according to a trailer released this week. The preview also signals that the show leans heavily on jokes about its own fantasy setting and characters.

The series adapts the long-running video game franchise and is being positioned as a comedy. The trailer features repeated self-referential gags, including lines that point back to the property’s history and familiar game elements.

The project was first reported in 2024, when it was described as an upcoming animated take on the Sega title. The latest trailer gives the clearest look yet at the show’s tone and release timing.

Golden Axe was originally released by Sega in the late 1980s and became one of the company’s best-known arcade-era fantasy games.
