The rumours would appear to be true. Borderlands dev Gearbox IS working on Duke Nukem Forever - and the game is set to be unveiled at Seattle games event PAX today.
US dev sources have indicated to CVG that the game will get a "grand demo" at the show - and will be built upon what 3D Realms had already created, rather than a fresh project.
To be fair, it's not as if this is the best kept secret in games.
Publisher 2K last night said that "something big is going to happen at the 2K Games Booth this PAX".
The tease follows last month's rumours that Gearbox had taken over development of DNF. Boss Randy Pitchford reportedly intimated that something may be coming at PAX.
2K's PAX conference will be available via live stream at 6pm UK time through the link below.
Duke Nukem Forever has suffered a famously patchy history. Original developer 3D Realms filed for bankruptcy last year, after 12 years working on the game.
Check out the latest gameplay video to emerge below. Looks a bit old. We're very keen to see what Gearbox has done with the old girl.

To anyone who has played duke nukem forever so far, how are you finding the game? does the multi player have potential?
i feel like my heart has been crushed reading all the negative reviews :/
i will make up my own mind at some point ultimately of course but not just yet for 49.99 lol.

Played it on 360 a few days ago. It's ok single player, I have lol'd a few times. I'll try multiplayer now. To be honest, it'll be fun doing some private 4-8 player games, like the old LAN days And it'll be hard to pirate, as it's tied into steam... Attachments:

Well, having played both 360 and PC versions, naturally it's about 1000% better on PC...
