In the 90s, Duke nuk was A fairly cult license video games. The typical American product, quite beautiful, with a lot of testosterone, and many aliens to exterminate to destroy the world. Despite everything, Duke nuk won a nice little success with fairly good games.
Then there was Duke Nukem Forever. The new opus of the series (and last to date), which will have put almost 10 years old. After a chaotic development, several postpones and reboot, the title arrives on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC in June 2011 and will be an unprecedented fiaco With an extremely bad title. A shipwreck that will sign the end of Duke nukat least, so far.
Indeed, the return of the Duke would not be so far, since Adi Shankar, the showrunner of the series Castlevania et Devil May Cryconfirmed that it has acquired the rights of the license to exploit it soon.
A Duke Nukem series in preparation?
It was during an interview with Esquire that Adi Shankar, the showrunner of the series Castlevania et Devil May Cryconfirmed that it has acquired the rights of the license from 2K Games and Gearbox. The objective would be to be able to produce a series or a Duke Nukem film in the years to come:
“It is a finger of honor to everyone. When Duke Nukem exploded, a bunch of people tried to make a brand, when it is simply a finger of honor. Duke Nukem cannot be created by a company, because as soon as a company creates Duke Nukem, it is no longer Duke Nukem. I do not intend to let anyone tell me what to do on this point. »»
In recent years, the (good) adaptations of games in film or series have made it possible to energize the sales of the games. Does this agreement between Shakar and Gearbox suggest A return to the video game of Duke nuk ? It is too early to confirm it to date. We still do not have a possible window out of the project which would seem to be only in its infancy.
