Duke Nukem 3D is a first-person shooter video game developed by 3D Realms.It is a sequel to the platform games Duke Nukem and Duke Nukem II, published by 3D Realms.. Duke Nukem 3D features the adventures of the titular Duke Nukem, voiced by Jon St. John, who fights against an alien invasion on Earth.

Version 2.0 of EDuke, a project to improve Duke Nukem 3D for modders by Matt Saettler (Matteus), was sent to 3D Realms for packaging shortly after the release of the Build source, leaving Duke Nukem 3D the pre-built libraries that 3D Realms had used with the original Duke.

The 3D Realms website notes that he is probably the only person in the industry to have misspelled his own name (as "Broussad") on a shareware title he created on his own, Pharaoh's Tomb.
