2K Games and Gearbox Software announced yesterday that Duke Nukem Forever will now explode at retail on June 10, 2011 internationally and June 14, 2011 in North America on the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC. The title was originally slated for a May 3rd release.

"In case you haven't heard, Duke never comes early," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "We're committed to deliver a laugh-out-loud, politically incorrect experience that people will talk about for years to come. We thank Duke's fans for their continued patience - I promise this won't take another 15 years."

Starring the iconic and legendary titular character, Duke Nukem Forever promises to reinvent the key ingredients necessary to create a summer smash hit that's boiling over-the-top with irreverent humor, catchy one-liners that will make your mama blush, and frantic, bone-shaking action sequences that will simultaneously rock your world and neighbors' walls. A statement from Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox Software, is available to view below:

"I'm very sorry for the added delay. We've all been working extremely hard and are very eager to deliver the game to you," added Pitchford. "I've been thinking of these lyrics from the great country song, 'He's The Duke' - 'He told us if we waited we could Come Get Some, but I never knew Forever was going to be so long.' If you're like me, June cannot come quickly enough."

Duke Nukem Forever will be available internationally on June 10, 2011 and in North America on June 14, 2011.
