Duke Nukem Forever is a first-person shooter video game for PC, system requirements and release date to be announced later. The game is developed by 3D Realms and published by Take-Two Interactive.
The game brings back the king of action in a highly anticipated game set to pummel players with unprecedented interactivity, variety, realism, and Duke's special whoop-ass brand of humor. The first in-house Duke Nukem game by 3D Realms since Duke Nukem 3D, Duke Nukem Forever promises to deliver an intense and hysterical FPS experience, with stunningly detailed characters in expansive interactive maps. Motion captured animation and realistic area-sensitive damage take realism to scary new heights, and make picking off those alien bastards all the more fun.
This game had been (if you haven't been following gaming news throughout the many eras and epochs that this game has been in the works) the perpetually-anticipated fourth in the series. The game's development saga is legendary, including a switch from the Quake engine to the Unreal engine and a string of unofficial release dates that stretch from 1998 to 20006 and beyond. Technically, developer 3D Realms had always promised the release of Duke Nukem Forever, "When it's done." Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a point on the horizon for when Duke Nukem Forever will be done. After over 12 years of development, the game production (as of this writing in May of 2009) unfortunately has ceased progress. It is unknown if the project will be finished at a later time by 3D Realms or another developer -- Take-Two Interactive still retains the publishing rights to Duke Nukem Forever but developer 3D Realms maintains the franchise rights and that company hit dire financial straits in 2009 and was forced to shut its doors.
