The new SEGA game news keeps coming today as we have a fresh look at the upcoming 3D action adventure Golden Axe! Unlike Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe has a brand new logo and potentially could be using simply the name Golden Axe as the final title. This would made sense, as the series has not seen a new game in a number of years and only the arcade original and Genesis/Mega Drive port have used the name. Also revealed is key art of the main cast and enemies including the dreaded Death Adder. While the characters look a little too “World of Warcraft” for my tastes, they do retain the look of the classic trio with new twists. It is likely this is either a reboot or a sequel set years later starring a new cast, as aside from the dwarf looking like Gilius Thunderhead, the male and female look a bit different from the Ax Battler and Tyris Flare fans remember.

Wow, that looks terrible. This does not honor the artistic style of the Golden Axe series at all.
Ok i love Golden Axe, it was great when i was a kid but these days it needs to evolve. Back then it was a very basic game, we have to move on from nostalgia. I just don’t want a repeat of Beast Rider, i want a 3 player co-op Golden Axe game and i think SEGA are heading in that direction. I’m a huge Tyris Flare fan and if this is her in the new game she looks very different, i’m not really sure if i like her design at the moment.
Straight garbage, looks like a $2 mobile game.
