NEWS: New Duke Nukem Game Revealed

Duke is to take a break from his usual FPS antics and enter the realm of action RPG according to a wall of decrypted text.

Avid fans of the Duke franchise have managed to decipher a strange block of text - originally Interceptor Entertainment asked for a total of 10,000 "likes" on Facebook, in which they would reveal the text themselves. 

However, this obviously isn't the case as some very dedicated people have done the job for us already - the new game is to be called Duke Nukem: Mass Destruction and is to contain action RPG elements as its core gameplay instead of the first-person shooter most of us are used to.

You can view the full translated text below (or alternatively, go HERE), which also details the game is to be released on PC and PlayStation.

"Few could have predicted the great catastrophe. The devastation from the start a once peaceful and prosperous race. The Kyrr fell victim to this mysterious and terrible force. Their flourishing homeworld, Kyrron, reduced to a planet ruled by chaos and hostility. A blazing desert wasteland dominated by a neverending struggle for survival.

And only those willing to adapt survived. The Kyrr adapted. The Kyrr survived.

Kyrron's now lifeless landscape forced them into a life of technological augmentation. Transforming this once cultured people into a marriage of muscle and machine - an existence defined as much by their agony as it was their anger.

And so their bodies were doomed to follow the fate of their eternally ruined world.

Radical changes to Kyrron created Kyroonite, a source of untold power. With it, they brought neighboring worlds to their knees, yet it would condemn them to an even crueler fate, as they would be forever bound to their Kyronite rich world. A dying planet they so fiercely despised.

But another great force was destined to find them, and with this help, the Kyrr would end their fall from paradise and begin their rise from hell...

The king makes his next generation debut in Duke Nukem: Mass Destruction. A top-down action role-playing game for PC and PlayStation. Duke Nukem kicks ass across planets in an unreal engine - powered galactic adventure to save the president from an apocalyptic alien threat. All new enemies. A neverbefore seen arsenal of devastating weaponry and series-first mechanics; including experience points and tech trees, will let Duke rip em a new one in a way he never has before."
