Duke Nukem

The brash human hero who fights back against the alien forces invading Earth.

Learn enemy placements, especially across multiple elevations, to avoid being surrounded. In heavy combat zones, use cover to scout before switching to high-damage weapons for quick cleanup. Key cards and switches are often hidden near side paths, suspicious walls, or interactive set pieces, so explore carefully. Avoid wasting medkits and ammo pickups when already near full capacity. Explosive barrels and traps can be used to thin groups efficiently.

Tips and tricks

• Check side areas and unusual walls carefully, since many secrets and supplies are hidden off the main route.
• Use the shotgun on close-range threats and conserve heavier ammunition for tougher encounters.
• Eliminating enemies on ledges or in chokepoints first makes later fights safer.
