Gearbox has added a countdown timer at the official website of Duke Nukem, hinting towards a September 1st unveil for a new Duke Nukem project. However, it appears that the Internet has just spoiled Gearbox’s surprise as we’ve got the title, the first details and the first screenshots for this upcoming Duke Nukem project.
In order to celebrate Duke Nukem 3D’s 20th anniversary, Gearbox will release a “Redux” (Remaster, Remix, you_call_it_as_you_want) version of Duke Nukem 3D, called Duke Nukem 3D: World Tour.
Duke Nukem 3D: World Tour will keep the 2D sprites of Duke Nukem 3D, will feature better lighting effects, will come with new/original content, and you can view below its first leaked screenshots.
Naturally, and since this has not been confirmed yet, we strongly suggest taking it with a grain of salt.
As said, Gearbox will officially reveal the new Duke Nukem project on September 1st, so stay tuned for more!

Wtf Gearbox?
Just glad I have Duke Nukem 3D Megaton Edition.
Me too, they removed Megaton Edition from the Steam store.
Same!
I would say “hooray” for the game being available again? I guess?
It’s better than nothing right guys?
Guys?
>_>
Seems after Battleborn that they ened to re-release another old IP again to siphon money off to then put towards something else. That and I can imagine someone else making a mod version like the guy behind Brutal DOOM for DN at some point (doesn’t have to be him but it could be anyone else), I can see GB not wanting anyone to go that route since it would be free.
I guess this is something?, doesn’t seem like it;s worth buying all over again imo, I’ve seen modders that put in more effort with less money and company power.
I knew this was coming since the guy behind eDuke32 revealed months ago that a re-release with new content was coming. But this looks pretty low effort…even the Polymer mod that’s been around for years has better lighting than this. I hope that the new episode is good at least…and I hope this is just a prelude to Gearbox announcing a new Duke game.
Also they are changing the file type and extension so you can’t play it with the eDuke32 source port.
so basically a paid mod? while free mods look better? lol, no thanks gearbox. your just as bad as 3drealms with the license. give it too a better dev please. especially after the flop that was battlebore
” while free mods look better?”
such as?
this kind of situation is when piracy is the right thing to do they pulled off from steam megaton edition so that greedy gearbox will make money from a 20 years old game
agreed~!!!!
Did you read the part about new content? Something Duke fans have been wanting?!
Dude, it looks like a mod. So there’s LOTS of ‘new content’ already for Megaton Edition.
ok then do inform me of all those great “mods” that duke nukem has.
Go on, tell me what are these AMAZING custom campaigns.
I don’t know about ‘great’ but go to Moddb, search duke nukem 3d and have a blast. Way too many to list. And more in Steamworkshop.
Wrong. Theft/piracy is never justified, you just dishonor yourself, period.
“you just dishonor yourself,”
Yeah and the commit hara kiri because you cant stand the DISHONNNAAAAAARRRR, after you buy the preorder suicide gold katana™ dlc for 4.99$ since it is well known corporate suits are your gods and you must pay tribute to their irrational scummy greedy nonsense that dont even make any damn sense.
Fuuuu consumers.
No honor among thieves.. Aparently even less intelligence.
They removed the Megaton Edition on Steam these bastar***
Gearbox really are a gaggle of utter shitheels. Screw them.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Oh man. What a waste of time
Randy Pitchford smoking crack again.
Re-re-re-re-re-releasing the only game that 3DR ever made that was good. 3DR proved themselves to be one-trick ponies, can we get on with the gaming industry and stop celebritizing Gearbox ‘AND’ 3DR?
Gearbox can only do Borderlands. 3DR could only do Duke Nukem 3D/64. The only other Duke Nukem game I loved, Zero Hour, wasn’t even made by them.
Gearbox actually has a few former 3D Realms employees working for them, some from the Duke 3D days.
Yeah, I know, they did pick up DNF after all. The problem is, to me, they’re washed out, burned out, and can’t make a game that interests anyone. There is no evidence of them having made a game that anyone likes but this game, a game they made in 1996. So, I can basically state with confidence that in 20 years? 3DR Staff, all of them, were not able to make a single game that was as good.
Yet they’re still alive? Still hireable? Gearbox is suicidal, lol
