Duke Nukem Forever is the world’s most infamous piece of vaporware, in large part due to the project’s persistence in not dying. Despite the fact that 3D Realms has laid off its development staff in 2009, the game’s development is reportedly now continuing at Gearbox.

Gearbox, who were working on a Duke Nukem prequel title, are not officially commenting though they hinted that an announcement may come at PAX. Take-Two does retain publishing rights for the game and a source says that a playable demo is expected for later in 2010.
