2K Games and Gearbox Software recently announced that Duke Nukem Forever has gone gold! Great news for fans of the game who have been eagerly awaiting the Duke’s return:

“Always bet on Duke, I did,” said Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox Software. “I bet on all of the developers who have ever been a part of this legendary project and I bet that none of us want to live in a world without the Duke. I’ve played the final game and it is an incredible experience – a once-in-a-lifetime opus of interactive entertainment that reminds me once again why Duke Nukem is our King.  The developers of Duke Nukem Forever at 3D Realms, Triptych, Piranha and finally at Gearbox deserve our thanks and respect for never giving up and have truly shown us that they have balls of steel!”

To help celebrate this exciting news as well as Duke Nukem Forever’s forthcoming release in New Zealand, Game Culture is giving away a Duke Nukem Forever Swag Bag! Check out the competition details here.

Duke Nukem Forever releases in New Zealand on June 10th.
