Today I received a press release e-mail regarding the next chance for gamers to get their hands on Duke Nukem Forever and just wanted to share it with everyone out there, because I know that there’s a big following for the title and the anticipation for the release is rising. I’ll tell you now, that if you’re not an Australian resident, this news is probably a lot less meaningful, but at the very least, expect some new videos to pop up online over the weekend. The official news is below.

Play Duke Nukem Forver this Saturday
Hail to the king, baby.

Duke Nukem Forever will be making its first and ONLY appearance in Australia this year at the first video game bar, the Mana Bar in Brisbane Australia this Saturday!

Duke Nukem Forever has been in development for over 12 years, with Gearbox Software and 2K Games confirming the release of the game for early 2011. Duke Nukem Forever is the sequel to the hugely popular Duke Nukem 3D, whereby the game and its protagonist have become pop culture legend, and spawned countless imitators and iconic catch phrases.

On Saturday the 16th of October, the President of Gearbox Software, Randy Pitchford will be flying to the Mana Bar in Australia to showcase the unreleased game, giving the Australian public the chance to play the game themselves on 5 screens from midday to midnight.

2K Games will also be giving away prize packs every hour on the hour, and a special Q&A with Randy Pitchford will be hosted by the Mana Bar’s Yahtzee Croshaw.
