Duke Nukem returns in a new adventure in a third-person platform game which harkens back to the days of the original Duke Nukem platformer games but this time with a 3D game engine. The story takes place in New York City, Duke battles his way across towering skyscraper rooftops and through gritty subway stations on the hunt for power-hungry villain, Mech Morphix. Mutants of every kind are thrown at Duke as he chases down Morphix through eight huge environments and avoids the green slime called GLOPP that is causing all the chaos.

There are over 25 different enemies Duke has to face such as Uzi-sporting alligators, ten-foot tall roach beasts, Fem-mechs (Female mutant robots with deadly whips) and the classic Pig Cop -all while spouting off his sarcastic one-liners and saving babes. There are 9 weapons to choose from such as the Golden Desert Eagle Pistol, pipe bombs, a machine gun, a rocket launcher and a pulse cannon just to name a few.

Trivia

The initial release included a limited edition collectors keychain. The silver colored metallic keychain is circular in design. One side says "Duke Nukem Manhattan Project" and shows the Statue of Liberty with Duke Nukem's signature radioactive (Nuke) symbol behind it. The other side has "NYC" in big letters and says "Good for one fare - Transit authority".
