Duke Begins unearthed by Take-Two lawsuit

By Patrick Garratt

A previously unknown Duke Nukem title, Duke Begins, has been unearthed in a lawsuit response from 3DRealms to Take-Two.

The game was apparently in the works at a “well-known videogame developer” and was supposed to release by mid-2010.

Development began within two months of an October 2007 funding agreement between 3DRealms and Take-Two, with the developer retaining rights to to approve “any changes to that [development] schedule.”

There’s plenty more on Shacknews. Poor old Duke. All he wants to do is spend his golden years sitting on the porch.
