Paramount Pictures Corporation, often just known as Paramount is an American film studio.

For a time, both Paramount and Sega were owned by the same parent company; Gulf+Western, giving Sega exclusive access to many of Paramount's properties. Sega were later sold to Paramount for a brief period, before regaining independence in 1983.

Paramount has never been directly involved in the video game business, but frequently licenses its material (such as Star Trek) to video game developers and publishers.
