Golden Axe is a side-scrolling, beat 'em up, hack and slash arcade video game released in 1989 by Sega for the System 16-B arcade hardware. It is the first game in the Golden Axe series.
Makoto Uchida was the primary developer of the game and also was responsible for the creation of Altered Beast. The game was ported to the Mega Drive/Genesis and Master System, among others.
The game where it all began for Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilus Thunderhead as they set out together again a common foe... Death Adder for the Golden Axe... the game's a classic and I played through three times with all characters to show off their various skills, techniques and what not. -

Absolutely, one of my favorite Mega Drive titles of all time!!! Masterpiece!
@ This ones a mega drive title (the arcade title has better sound effects)
@ He's clearly referring to the Megadrive port and not the arcade game you idiot.
Golden axe is one of the best games in history.

Best Cast!
@@KickboxerKyo1 would definitely watch
I miss games like this, they were so original and unique and straight to the point. I miss the oldies
This game takes me back. I used to always go the Dwarf. My friend usually went the barbarian, only this time, I decided to try out the Amazon woman. When I maxed out the magic and used it before I died, neither of us were expecting her to summon a dragon and burn everything.
Fun Fact: The Chicken Legs mounts first appeared as enemies in Altered Beast.
Interesting. Good tip, thanks.
looooooooooooooooooooooool
never thought of hat, but what an awesome observation
it's not fun
Somehow that makes me believe Golden Axe and Altered Beast are connected in a way.
Name: Ax=Battler.
Weapon: Sword
Yeah, that makes sense.
It kind of does make sense if you want it to; he is either a battler that uses an ax, or a battler with a history of defeating opponents who use axes. If that’s the case he could use any weapon.
I think it means he fights the big evil dude that has the golden axe, but yeah bit of an odd name
Battles people who have axes. Makes perfect sense.
Maybe he had issues with his parents and after several years away at preparatory school realized that living up to his birth name wouldn't result in the best weapon of choice for defeating the evil, which coincidently had killed his parents whilst away boarding. The fateful information was to be delivered by Alex who was also killed shortly after in an unrelated incidence. Avenging his friend became the reason for taking up the sword and restoring peace to the land.
He has upper hand because of weapon triangle
The sounds of the guys dying "AAAEeeeAAAUUHHHH" always made me laugh.
The really changed it in Golden Axe 2. "Pleh"
That sound comes from the movie "rambo"
Haha the graphic is very good for this time, but the sound is lachflash of death haha!
Some of the best game music even to date.
5:53 They didn't hack wildly at the villagers. This person does not know how to Golden Axe ;)
My sisters, cousins and I would cry laugh when we tried to kill the villagers. Better times.
better than many current holywood movies.
Adult life for people in this exact nostalgia time frame is nothing but a lifelong quest:
to find something that gives you the same feeling as baiting 2-3 enemies into diving off one of the cliffs as you play it cool waiting for the Go! sign
Too often though - it is not being able to quite get all the potions from the little potion troll as he runs off and you get like one potion haha
One of my favorite games for the genesis. There were quite a few times where you could have used the special attack to get the enemies behind you. That's pressing the attack+jump button at the same time. Sadly it won't always save you but it's quite useful to know.
Year after year I came here to get the nostalgic memories of my childhood.. good times that will never came back
😢
One of the best games ever conceived by humankind. The arcade version is simply flawless. And this one is not a bad port at all. Totally faithful to the original. Watching this makes me just wanna go play it instead.
It's not totally faithful, they removed the bit with Alex explaining what has happened and then being clubbed to death.
22:33 Golden Antigravity Knight has discovered Antigravity.
That's as bad as the Chaos Marine in Dark Crusade that ran down the side of a vertical cliff in the Eldar Stronghold fight.
I grew up playing this game and it still holds up really well today ,too bad none of the sequels could match it.
I finished this game sooooooo many times playing along with my bro and sis...great times back on the 90's!! Thanks for the walkthrough!!
Interesting fact: the 2 skeletons in the final boss fight can in fact be killed, but they both have TWICE the HP as the final boss himself!!!!
When using the special attack (pressing B+C), this has to be done 22 times on the skeletons to kill them. For the boss, it only takes 11 times.
In fact, Death Bringer has the same HP as Death Adder. The difference is that the skeletons in the Death Bringer fight have 5x the HP of the skeletons in the Death Adder fight.
Basically, the skeletons are the true final boss.
This particular port of the game was superb.
The best port arcade game to console!!!
I remember of always crack laughing with my friends everytime we paused the game and see the skeleton face on the floor like this 12:43
Kkkkk que top jogava de mais lembrei da minha infância
That legendary soundtrack😍😍😍
My God I remember playing this game on the Genesis when I was barely even 5 years old. I sunk so many hours into it it wasnt even funny.
I stopped playing the genesis for a while and when I went to play it again, I couldn't find the game. I cried so hard because of this.
Now, Im 27, and I've spent the past 22+ years searching for this gem, and now I'm crying because I've finally found the game again.
I didn't remember the name, only what it roughly looked like. Can't wait to play this again after so, so, so, so long.
Our memories might dull over time, but we never forget.
Thank you
Happy anniversary to another of my childhood games🎉
I miss the insidious snakes that form Death Adder. As seen in the Arcades. That aside, what a translation. Beautiful.
The Golden Axe trilogy could have been an awesome anime series, with a modernized version of the soundtrack!
THIS IS THE FRICKIN' GAME. AS A KID, I FUCKING LOVED THIS GAME SO FUCKING MUCH/
20:30 lol
1:56:53 nice joke there! Tyris Flare - height - 5'08; weight - ? ... woman never tell you about their weight.
I was thinking just that, she especially would take your head off for asking
For that, there are scales, and slipping them mickeys.
Tyris flare 😍💕💕💕💕....
The irony is that I stopped playing this just before getting to "that" stage of puberty.
One of my favourites! Feeling nostalgic 😢
Wow this brings back memories... I used to play this with my dad 😂
best game ever.....still in 2024.....sega16bit.......sounds and music.....rules
I forgot how Death=Adder just went on a rampage against adventurers families but spared the king and queen
Amiga had the best sounds and music from what i experienced
*Almost arcade perfect!!* ⭐️
Dude you’re good... defeating Adder with barely a hit? I salute you... That’s where I use all my continues
The Legend....Memory in 1991/1992....
Remember this only being in the arcades and then all of a sudden we had it at home? it was like a dream come true, I miss my childhood so much, These fortnite teens have no idea what is was like to get a super Nintendo or sega mega drive and start actually having arcade graphics at home.
Golden axe is super nostagia man that was the super and excellent game in the history of mega drive
what a classic love both golden axe games for genesis
There are 3 games. I have all 3.
@@MrZillas oh yeah I can't believe I forgot ty
but... but... who was alex!?
He was an injured soldier at the begining in the Arcade that tells you about the king and princess being kidnapped by death adder then is clubbed to death by a long moan enemy.
They edited the part out in this version.
@@ValiantWrestling they kept it in the amiga version, as other things missing from the megadrive version.
My parents were also killed by Death=Adder. But you don’t see me making a huge fucking deal about it
I'm not gonna watch this for 2 hours, but... so many weekends and weekend nights wasted with this game when I was in secondary school. The dwarf had been my favorite toon, and I think I've beaten the game 5 or 6 times within an year... but I don't remember too much from it.
did you notice something? the genesis is missing alot of voice samples from the arcade.
I love the music at the end
Minions have the best AI compared to other similar fighting games
The bad guy at 20:29 went out like a stone cold G.
this is so nostalgic
I used to play Golden Axe in 2014 & 2021 on Sonic's Ultimate Collection on ps3. That's my favorite. Since I beat Streets of Rage 2 & Altered Beast on ps3.
when I was a kid I thought the elves that steal your magic between levels were giant squirrels
Memories.
Que recuerdos 😢 cuando salía de la escuela jugaba este y el de los vaqueros tmb contra aunque mi mamá siempre le.molesto por qué era para niños
You know its not tool assisted when he misses all those elves with potions the slag!
Now that compilations are "in" and classics like this are becoming more appreciated by the new generation, why not have one that contains the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd games for Genesis, the arcade version of 1, the fighting game released in the mid 90s, and ESPECIALLY the Revenge of Death Adder?
Revenge of Death Adder has serious emulating issues. Even after 15 years Mame can't properly emulate it without a ton of graphic glitches (especially the shadows) and sound issues. Almost all the Sega System 32 games are a pain in the ass to properly emulate for some reason.
Golden Axe - The Duel should be fine if they use the Saturn version, since the Arcade version also has quite some graphic and sound issues on emulators. The Sega Titan hardware, just like System 32, is not easy to emulate.
I doubt we will ever see a proper running version of Revenge of Death Adder unless they re-program the game from the ground up for modern platforms.
Bad Brothers vs. Hammer Brothers
Goold old times, damn, those skull were so boring but fun :p
23:40, epic theme :)
Wait... ...why were there 2 playthroughs with the dwarf at the end?
If you remember this you are true OG player.
I love this game!
there is one issue i have with this game
THE FUCKING SKELETONS
I know, limitations and all ... but I quite liked the additional levels the Gen/Megadrive added, although I'd prefer Death Bringer to be Death Adder using the titular Golden Axe (hence, power up).
Fun fact! This game was ENTIRELY voice acted by prisoners on death row.
Yeah, very fun.
WHAT!!!
When I was a kid I used to think the little thieves were squirrels
sound of hitting enemies: Praken praken toc toc(Punch in the head) aahhhhhhh!! Lol
15:25 🎼🎵 (Blasts Chad Kroeger song from Spiderman) "AAAAND they saaay that a HEEEERO will save us! Not gonna stand here aaaaaaaand waaaaait-!! Gonna hold onta da wiiiings uh da EAAAAGLES-!!"
Gilius Thundernuts, Ass Battler, and Ric Flare.
So the only way to get magic is to commit highway robber of the gnomes passing by? What has this world come to?!
Finally i see someone who the Game continues in the castle!!!!you are the first one whos video i see it to continue inside after killing the last boss !!!!!01:20:08
Why did they remove the bit with Alex from the beginning? 🤔
because the cart space in rom was too expensive, sega did not allowed their programmers to use a 16mbits cart. They had to do with 8mbits only. They had to reduce the MD version on the graphic contents. It's incredibly blocky.
@@dlfrsilver in fact, the game has only 4 mbits (512 kbytes).
@@DaniKarmann even worse.
This game would surface on the genesis close to Christmas in 1989
Yeah 1989 was 2 years before my birth! Haha the graphic is very good for this time, but the sound is lachflash of death haha!
Its the death sound effect for me.
This and shinobi were my favourite
53:54 I used to get so angry as a kid when the skeleton conked me in the head like that.
Fuckn hell that tune takes me back what a great game the girl had tve best magic that dragon was a beast fun fun times 🥹
They need to start prescribing this game at TRT clinics
Jogo inesquecível.
Holy nostalgia i just coomed my pants
Death Adder running 😂
While The Barbarian clearly looks like Conan and the Amazon clearly resembles Red Sonja, Gilius the Dwarf is certainlyan conglomeration of things. this is most likely why he's continued to show up in the other Sega titles and not so much the other two.
I think he's supposed to represent Zeus.
Gameshowboy 92 well he's a lot of things, he's got the thick beard and horned helm of a "viking", his magic is lightning like Zeus as you mentioned, he also wields an axe.
Morden101 Well yeah.
I never finished the game
When been surrounded.. hack left then right.. continue till all dead.. HAHAHAA
Just watching the credits. TIL that all the enemies are short boys.
My game favorite together for 3.
Que saudade da infância
8:00 no me olvides !
11:35 - 15:15 Eagle Path from super mario fusion revival
Eu zerava sempre esse jogo
Never made it that far cause I was like 5 but I used to call those fat guys deb cause that was the name over the door
40:28 INSANE!
43:23 dashin cuttin an slashin.
The dragon mounts sound constipated.
i was 7 good old days yo
I fucking hated those little things with the jewels
This game is hard and unforgiving, cant beat it with 3 bars per life, and that additional last boss was like haxor, with two immortal skeletons, and that two big knights before him can walk on abbyss...
Not sure about the genesis version, but the arcade is piss-easy dude, one of the easiest arcade to beat with one credit.
This game is easy as shit.
This game was pretty easy. Only had a little trouble with the last boss~ but thats all
Anytime I play golden axe 1 or 2, it is as the red Amazon chick because her magic is the best
AAAAAAWWWWW GAAAAHHHHD!!!!!!
