Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour Released

Gearbox announces the release of Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour, the promised update of the first of the two first-person shooters in the Duke Nukem series. There are details on the shooter revival on the Duke Nukem website, and here is the announcement, including word on the participation of Allen Blum III and Levelord to create a new fifth chapter:
Gearbox Publishing is proud to announce that Duke Nukem returns to save babes and kick alien ass once again in Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour. Now at the fingertips of gamers on contemporary platforms with new, never-before-seen content from the original development team, this anniversary edition of the landmark first-person shooter is available digitally starting at 5:00 PM PDT today on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, and Windows PC via Steam® for an MSRP of $19.99. The game will also be available in disc format at the same MSRP for PlayStation®4 and Xbox One consoles at GameStop stores in North America beginning on October 18, 2016.

“We feel there isn’t a better way to celebrate 20 years of Duke Nukem 3D than to get the original team back together and provide this love letter to Duke fans,” says Steve Gibson, head of Gearbox Publishing. “With all-new content built on top of what is undeniably one of the most iconic first-person shooters in gaming history, this is the ultimate Duke Nukem experience for both seasoned fans of the title and gamers from a new generation experiencing it for the first time.”

Duke Nukem’s brazen return to the limelight sees him saving the world again in a brand new and bigger-than-ever fifth episode, Alien World Order. Showcasing his trademark bravado and wielding an arsenal of weapons worthy of The King himself, Nukem travels to eight iconic new locations to gun down alien scum on his World Tour, including Amsterdam, Moscow, Paris, Egypt, San Francisco and more in eight huge new maps from Duke Nukem 3D’s original designers.

In addition to the original game in its full, unabashed glory, Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour includes:

  • “Hail to the King, Baby!” – Complete, all-new episode containing eight brand new, classically-designed levels created by the original designers of Duke Nukem 3D, Allen Blum III and Richard “Levelord®” Gray
  • “Come Get Some!” – All-new original music composed by Lee Jackson, original author of Duke Nukem’s iconic theme “Grabbag” and sound designer for Duke Nukem 3D, along with new one-liners from the voice of Duke himself, Jon St. John
  • “I’ve Got Balls of Steel!” – All-new behind-the-scenes commentary from the original development team, accessible in-game
  • “I’m Lookin’ Good!” – Play the game using the original 1996 graphics engine or toggle in real time to play with the original content rendered at improved fidelity and frame rate using Gearbox’s all-new “True3D Rendering” mode
  • “Ooh, That’s Gotta Hurt!” – Duke it out online with up to eight players in Dukematch or team up in eight-player online co-op

This at least makes sense if you want fire up some old style duke3d deathmach fun. That is, if you want to play that kind of thing today.

Yeah, I'm due for a replay, but I don't fault anyone who doesn't want to buy it for an additional time...

charge $20 for a re-release."

At least they put in some new content, but I'm still not paying $20 for it.

Ummm... OK, asking for a free upgrade might be sort of greedy but there's not even a fucking discount for owners of the Atomic or Megaton shit or whatevs it was called??? $20? Are they fucking serious?

Relax, people. For those who are big duke fans and want to support the devs, which this time around include the original guys from 20 years ago, $20 isn't very much money to fork over for ALL of duke3d, plus new levels, commentary, new voices, and a new renderer (maybe something like gzDoom and Brutal Doom?). And for those who don't want to pay $20, well, wait a month or two and GOG should have it for $12.99 on a sale.

It's $20, pocket change really. And it's not like you're getting a three hour walking simulator a la Firewatch.

I'll live stream and show my mousepad from the original game and they can give me a free upgraded copy.

I had my CC out, I was going to pull the trigger and buy it.....but. Im NOT paying $20 for this fucking thing. $10....maybe even $12.99...NOT $20.

A hale and hearty "fuck you" to Gearbox and Randy.

Over & Out.

That was a close call, sounds like you barely dodged that bullet. Place that cc in a bowl of water and stick that bowl in the freezer.
No one should ever have to feel the need to buy a 20 year old game ever again.

From what I see on Steam forums, this is total and utter shit. Lazy port with shitty voiceovers, missing Atomic Edition content...

Better off grabbing Duke3D Atomic data files and using eduke32.

Free? NO? Pass. Horse has been dug up and kicked many times over.

/all forum comments say the game is hardly updated and sounds and textures are broken. Milkfest 2016.
