Remastered version of Duke Nukem 3D may have just leaked
'Damn, those alien bastards are gonna pay for leaking my remastered game... and for shooting up my ride!'
It appears Duke Nukem’s big surprise may have been outed as a remastered version of Duke Nukem 3D may be announced soon.
A teaser website popped up yesterday that counts down to the 20th anniversary of Duke Nukem 3D. The site features a “Happy 20th Anniversary” banner along with a countdown clock, but nothing else.
The remastered version of Duke Nukem 3D, which is expected to be called Duke Nukem 3D: World Tour, was revealed by Reddit user Tezla55. The user says the information was leaked to them by someone familiar with the project, who says the game is being developed by Nerve Software and even included several screenshots.
Duke Nukem 3D: World Tour is expected to feature the classic game along with some new and original content. The title may also feature co-op and online deathmatch, although that information isn’t completely accurate as they’re not 100% sure of these features.
Here are the screenshots as well as an image of the game’s logo:

SO cool.....first sprite-based FPS in like 20 years.

I'm still cool with this. Hopefully Duke match works.

I guess this is the in the same spirit as the new Quake expansion pack from MachineGames?
Not bad, a new expansion/level pack/episode/DLC/whatever it's called nowadays for a classic old game isn't bad...kinda sucks it was leaked but honestly they shoulda just released it like MachineGames dropped their Quake expansion if it's purely a stand-alone map pack or made an announcement if it's a new version of the Duke 3D Megaton Edition but with the new episode included rather than an 8 day countdown.
Still a little anti-climatic. I have the now unavailable Megaton Edition on Steam and it was great to play through Duke 3D again the last time I did..but like, eh, a map pack. That's pretty cool and all for the 20th anniversary (which was in January, right?), I'm not shitting on it...but man, that remake of Duke 3D Interceptor showed off/got C&D'd would have been way less anti-climatic/blown my balls away rather than being "Oh hey, that's neat" like a newly made Duke it Out in DC-style expansion.
But still a pretty cool thing to do. -
It's a safe thing to do I guess. Pretty anticlimactic considering I was hoping for a modern engine Duke3D remake but I'll take a classic expac in a heartbeat. More Duke!
