Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour, New Gameplay Footage
A few weeks ago we got word that a brand new Duke Nukem would be coming, which would go back to the roots of the original and bring back the classic Duke we all know and love. The forthcoming Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour (longest name ever?) will feature:
- ALL-NEW Episode FIVE, created by the original episode designers, Allen Blum III and Richard “Levelord®” Gray!
- New, bonus content in Episode 5: Duke Nukem finally gets a INCINERATOR to roast new “Firefly” enemies!
- New “Duke Talk” plus high-fidelity re-recordings from Duke Nukem’s original voice actor, Jon St. John!
- New musical score for Episode 5 created by Duke’s theme song author and original game composer, Lee Jackson!
- Original 1996 source code and “2.5D” engine re-mastered in True 3D for PC!
And now we've now got our first gameplay look at one of the brand new levels courtesy of Attack of the Fanboy, which showcases off the New Alien World Order Level.

So they're going back in order to bring back the magic of the franchise after the lackluster Duke Nukem Forever stomped on fan's hearts (though I was "ok" with it, granted it's not perfect but still).
We took the same approach that we did 20 years ago – making fun maps was our primary goal,” said Gray. “The most important thing specific to the new content was to make the biggest levels ever in a Duke game, and we did! Players will be amazed by how massive some areas are.” All said there are seven brand new levels to play through.
And just in case you missed it, here's the reveal trailer once again ;)
