Experience the Legend: Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour

Step back into the golden age of first-person shooters with Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour. This definitive edition celebrates two decades of the legendary action hero, allowing players to relive the high-octane, raunchy, and over-the-top experience that revolutionized the genre in 1996. Whether you are a veteran looking to revisit the streets of L.A. or a newcomer eager to witness the FPS icon that set new standards for interactivity and non-linear gameplay, this World Tour delivers the ultimate dose of retro carnage.

A Global Mission to Save Earth

The premise remains as iconic as ever: Duke Nukem returns from his previous adventures seeking nothing more than a well-deserved vacation. However, his peace is shattered when an alien invasion wreaks havoc across the globe. Taking up arms once again, Duke embarks on a mission to kick alien ass and save humanity (and babes) across various locales. While the original journey took players through Earth and the moon, this anniversary edition expands the scope significantly.

Expanded Gameplay and New Content

Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour is much more than a simple remaster; it is an expanded odyssey. The game features the four classic episodes from the original release, supplemented by massive new content designed to provide a fresh challenge for modern players.

  • All-New Episode Five: Titled "Alien World Order," this brand-new episode was created by the original episode designers, Allen Blum III and Richard “Levelord®” Gray. It takes Duke to different cities across the globe.
  • Fresh Enemies and Tools: In Episode 5, players can utilize the all-new Incinerator to combat the "Firefly" enemies.
  • Authentic Audio Upgrades: Experience high-fidelity re-recordings of "Duke Talk" from the original voice actor, Jon St. John, alongside a new musical score for Episode 5 composed by the original game composer, Lee Jackson.
  • Enhanced Visuals: While maintaining the soul of the original, the PC version features the classic 1996 source code and "2.5D" engine remastered in True 3D.

Features for the Completionist

For those who thrive on exploration, the game's highly interactive environments and non-linear level design remain a core draw. Players can hunt for secret rooms and hidden routes to maximize their efficiency. The inclusion of "show level stats" makes it easier than ever for completionists to track their progress through the various levels across all five episodes.
