Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project blasting onto iOS this week

Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project is getting an iOS port later this week. It's from Spawn Studios, who previously ported the game to Xbox Live Arcade in 2010.

(Note: The iOS version will be handled by 3D Realms, not Spawn Studios, as stated in the original story. Shacknews regrets this error.)

Duke Nukem is arming himself to the teeth for another classic re-release, this time for his classic 2002 PC shooter, Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project. The 2.5D shooter is set to arrive on iOS and tug at your nostalgic heartstrings later this week.

The game's controls will be placed along the bottom of the screen and can be customized to the player's preference. Spawn Studios had previously released an Xbox Live Arcade port of Manhattan Project in 2010. It felt somewhat dated, even back then, so another four years is unlikely to have helped it age well.

The XBLA port is still available, but if you're more interested in the original PC release, you can pick that up on Steam.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
