2K Games and Gearbox Software have announced the Duke Nukem Forever Balls of Steel Edition. This collector’s version will arrive in South Africa alongside the standard edition on 6 May 2011, for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
South African distributor Megarom has said that the Balls of Steel Edition will “more than likely” be hitting our retail shelves. Although they aren’t at liberty to disclose the available quantity, they have revealed that supply will be “very limited.” Pricing is also unconfirmed for the Ball of Steel Edition. The recommended retail price for the standard edition is R599.
The Balls of Steel Edition of Duke Nukem Forever contains a copy of the game with exclusive Balls of Steel cover art and the following items:
• Collectible bust of the greatest alien ass-kicker of all-time.
• Numbered, limited-edition certificate of authenticity.
• 100-page hardcover book: The History, Legacy & Legend: Duke Nukem Forever Art from the Vault.
• Duke Nukem Forever postcard series.
• Duke Nukem Forever radioactive emblem sticker.
• Duke Nukem Forever collectable comic book.
• Duke Nukem Forever foldable paper craft.
• Duke Nukem Forever poker chips.
• Duke Nukem Forever mini-card deck.
• Duke Nukem Forever radioactive emblem dice.
Duke Nukem Forever has had a tumultuous journey thus far, and it’s not over yet. Many are not likely to believe the game is actually a reality until they have it in their hands. With the arrival of Forever, the Duke Nukem franchise will mark its 20th year. The fear now is that the title can’t possibly live up to the expectations of over 12 years of development, hype, and a longing for closure.
So sayeth the 2K Games marketing department: “Irreverent, politically incorrect, and uber macho, Duke Nukem is the perfect, uncompromising ass-kicking hero to remedy the overdose of today’s gaming archetypes. Duke brings his signature brand of babe-lovin’, cigar-smoking, beer-chugging and ass-kicking action as he saves the Earth and its babes from hordes of invading aliens. Where will you be when Duke Nukem Forever launches? Better mark your calendars, Duke’s legend is being told this May.”
