Sega Saturn Version
In 1997, the game was ported over to the Sega Saturn by Lobotomy Software. Rather than running in the Build engine, the developer ported the game under their own 3D engine custom made for the Saturn labeled "SlaveDriver" which was also used for their other PC to console ports such as Powerslave and Quake. The Saturn port also received an exclusive level named "Urea 51." The Saturn Analog gamepad could also be used for more precise control.
Extra Features
Sega NetLink
Duke Nukem 3D was one of the few games that made use of the Sega Saturn's Sega NetLink modem for multiplayer between two players. Players had the choice of playing through the Single Player game cooperatively or competitively through "Dukematch" across all the levels in the game.
Death Tank Zwei
Duke Nukem 3D contains a mini game called Death Tank Zwei that can be accessed if you have save data from either Quake or Powerslave.
Saving Data
Duke Nukem 3D makes use of the Saturn's internal battery back-up as well as the Sega Saturn Back-Up Ram Cart to save data for progress. This only works for the Single Player game.
