Duke Nukem 3D fans, here is something special for you today. Back in May, we informed you about a Duke Nukem 3D remake in the Serious Sam 3 Engine. Titled Serious Duke 3D, this fan project aimed to remake the first five levels from Duke Nukem 3D’s first episode. And we are happy to report today that this project is now complete and available for download.
The modder has also added some modern elements to the mix, such as redesigned and expanded level areas, occasional enemy waves/arena fights and new weapons.
Serious Duke 3D also features redesigned enemy and weapon models from DNF with custom animations, as well as a selection of sounds and voice taken from several official Duke games.
Needless to say that this something you have to download and play right now. Naturally, and as the title suggests, this Duke Nukem 3D remake requires Serious Sam 3. Furthermore, Serious Duke 3D also supports VR (you’ll also need Serious Sam 3 VR Edition though).
It’s also worth noting that the modder plans to release some classic versions of all these maps in the future. Moreover, he may also release episode 2 and 3 as single maps. What this means is these maps will contain all the highlights of the respective episode in one huge level.
You can download Serious Duke 3D from here.
Have fun!

I never even heard of this being made, it looks great! And VR support too is a bonus for me.
Damn, not a fan of Duke, but this makes me want to give it a shot.
I don’t get it, you need Serious Sam 3 but it’s listed as a Serious Sam Fusion 2017 mod? I’m confused as to which game to buy to get this
Serious Sam Fusion is a free launcher that updates all of the Serious games with the new engine. If you own any of the other games you get the Fusion version for free. So if you already own Serious Sam 3 you get the Fusion version for free.
Thank you Jose =)
Actually, I’m also having this same doubt…I”m still going through the installation instructions.
By the way, these are the instructions as given by the author.
I think we would be needing BOTH Series SAM 3 and the FUSION mod, right ?
For people new to SS Fusion.:
How to install and play::1. Download Serious Sam Fusion
2. Make sure you have Serious Sam 3 installed through Fusion (DLC in Steam client)
3. Subscribe to all individual levels and the network script resources.
4. Launch the game using the “play moddable”launch option
5. In the main menu, go to Singleplayer -> Campaign and select “Serious Duke 3D”
Well, guess I’m out then!
Angra sucks btw
Hell yeah! Thanks for the heads-up, John.
Gonna try it, maybe.
This is excellent ! Give me a First-person shooter any time of day, be it any MOD or a remake, or any INDIE FPS title for that matter.
Downloading it right now…Interesting.
Thanks for posting this, @JOHN !! You are the best, lol.
amazing!
fernando and kim shetting on this mod in 3…2…1
Wow, this looks great!
Why couldnt dnf be like this? Or better yet why cant gearbox copy doom 2016 and make a duke nukem game? You know what, scratch that considering what a massive sjw Pitchford is it will probably be loaded with feminist bs.
Dude [ shakes head ] who freaking knows Man, it makes no sense what so ever hey.
Insane hey, seems so simple and perfect yet they could not figure it out.
Looks freaking epic! Thanks for the heads up John. It’s sort of insane the actual company never made something like this especially in light of RE2 remake’s success and others.
Heck keep it all in the family of the FPS genera and look back at the two Shadow Warrior remakes, they both are awesome & made $. Having said that you think a Duke 3D remake in new tech/engine would of been a given + mega $ & a win. All well this will do ? + it looks rad.
Now this is something useful. Unlike all those Raytard Tracing Bullschitt. This is proper news, thank you. All we need are nude mods later on today Johnny Boi ?
ray tracing looks cool, i don’t get the hate.
AMD shills hate it, they’re gonna tout it as the best thing since sliced bread once AMD releases RT optimized GPUs.
he’s not an amd shill.
As Nvidia shills did all this time with their “OMG look my card supports another FPS killer feature”? You are really bold talking about “shills” but not even a shill like you can ruin this moment. Duke is back.
This is AWESOME!
THIS IS SO F*KING GOOD omg, this is the duke i want to play, i’m half way done with it and its awesome, please try it its the real duke
This is the damn Duke Nukem I always wanted!!! OMG John when you forgot to take your blue pill you can actually post really good news like you used to.
Almost feel like this should have gotten this instead of Duke Nukem Forever…
