Bubblegum yadda yadda yadda
Bulletstormhad a fun idea before getting quietly shuffled away back in 2011. Now that Gearbox Publishing and People Can Fly are bringing a port with updated visuals (touting higher-res textures, 4K resolution on PS4 and PC) and new modes, maybe it’ll find its audience six years later.
Speaking of finding an audience, if you pre-orderBulletstorm: Full Clip Editionyou get access to Duke Nukem. Forcibly inserted into the story with fresh lines from originalDuke Nukemvoice actor Jon St. John, maybe you can pretend this is actuallyDuke Nukem Foreverand you weren’t horribly disappointed years ago. Thanks to IGN, we have a look at how this’ll work and it’s…fine. Duke himself needs some finer tuning as his model doesn’t quite fit in with theBulletstormuniverse (and the lip sync is even worse for wear), but once it gets into gameplay it’s the same as it ever was just with occasional Nukem barbs. Who knows, maybe this is whatBulletstormneeded to be popular?
Check out the story trailer, 14 minutes of gameplay,and Duke Nukem below.Bulletstorm: Full Clip Editionis out on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC April 7th.
