FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Austin, TX – The warlocks of Devolver
Digital have partnered with legendary studio 3D Realms and
Singapore-based indie developer General Arcade to launch
Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition on Steam. The explosive
collection includes the seminal first-person shooter Duke Nukem 3D
and three wildly themed expansion packs – Duke Caribbean:
Life’s a Beach, Duke: Nuclear Winter, and Duke It Out in D.C.
– each with polished OpenGL visuals, SteamPlay support for PC
and Mac, Steam achievements, and Steam Cloud support.
Duke Nukem 3D originally splashed onto the scene in 1996
with groundbreaking gameplay that blended fast-paced action,
unparalleled interactivity, and some of the most memorable quips in
gaming history. Duke is a one-man wrecking crew wielding everything
from shrink rays to pipe bombs as he brings down an alien invasion
from the streets of Los Angeles to a lunar space station.
"There is a whole generation of fans that may have heard of Duke
Nukem 3D but never actually played it so it's exciting to add a bit
of polish to the game and the expansions for the first release on
Steam," said Scott Miller, founding partner at 3D Realms. "General
Arcade has worked close with our team and hardcore fans across the
world to make sure the Megaton Edition lives up to the Duke Nukem
legacy.”
Developer General Arcade and publisher Devolver Digital will
continue to update
Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition with new features including
Steamworks-enabled online multiplayer, Linux support, and
additional expansion packs in the future.
Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition is available now on PC and
Mac via Steam for $9.99/€9.99/£6.99.
