CAKE has announced a UK deal with BBC for two seasons of live-action VFX series Armorsaurs produced by MGA Entertainment (MGA). The first season will premiere on CBBC and iPlayer in February.
Aimed at kids 6+ with strong co-viewing appeal, Armorsaurs is produced by MGA Entertainment (MGA), one of the largest privately held toy and entertainment companies in the world and is a remake of the South Korean television show Armored Saurus originally developed by South Korea’s Daewon Media. CAKE handles all media distribution rights globally outside of South Korea, Japan, and China. Daewon Media handles media and consumer product distribution rights in South Korea, Japan, and China. In 2026, the Armorsaurs universe will expand across toys, digital content, lifestyle products, and games, building a multi-platform brand with a global reach.
Armorsaurs follows a team of teen pilots and their armoured dinosaurs, who are humanity’s last line of defence against an advanced alien race intent on returning to Earth to replenish their army of prehistoric fighting dinosaurs. Chosen for a rare genetic marker, our five young heroes are trained in the top-secret initiative known as the Armorsaurs Program to bond with these creatures and operate the sophisticated battle armour that turns these prehistoric beasts into a formidable fighting force. Together, our young heroes and the dinosaurs must lead the fight to defend the planet in a heroic battle of survival, millions of years in the making.
Dominic Gardiner, Managing Director of Distribution at CAKE said,
“Armorsaurs is an ambitious, high-impact series that combines cinematic live-action storytelling with cutting-edge VFX and a powerful sense of adventure. The BBC is a natural home for the show, with its long-standing commitment to premium, imaginative content for kids and families, and we’re thrilled to be introducing Armorsaurs to UK audiences. This launch marks an important step in building the franchise as a multi-platform global brand.”
Sarah Muller, Senior Head of Commissioning 7+, BBC Children’s and Education said, “Armorsaurs is a bold and imaginative series that brings together thrilling storytelling and cutting-edge visual effects. Partnering with CAKE and MGA allows us to bring this exciting new adventure to CBBC and iPlayer, giving children and families an unforgettable experience to enjoy together.”
