Other Appearances
The characters from the original Golden Axe have made cameo appearances in other Sega games. Ax Battler, Gilius Thunderhead and Tyris Flare all make a cameo appearance in the arcade version of Alien Storm. They can be found on one of the in-game television screens; a Golden Axe logo can also be seen during that cameo. Gilius Thunderhead makes another cameo appearance in the game, as part of a panel of judges rating the player's score. In Shining in the Darkness, Gilius takes the role as a blacksmith, with his axe next to him. Also next to him is a head shot of a blue thief.
Gilius Thunderhead is also a playable character in Sega Superstars Tennis and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. The latter also features a track inspired by Golden Axe called "Adder's Lair". Ax Battler and Tyris Flare are available as playable characters in the Easy Mode of the Sega Ages 2500 version of Dynamite Deka. Death Adder also makes an appearance as one of the game's bosses.
Chickenleg, the pink cockatrice with the tail lash from the first game, first appeared as an enemy in Altered Beast.

“Truth has scarce done so much good in the world as the false appearances of it have done hurt.”
