Lawsuit concerning reportedly unpaid Duke Nukem Forever royalties comes to a close, as suit is dismissed with prejudice.

The has been dismissed with prejudice, meaning it will not be revisited, it was confirmed today.

"After reviewing evidence regarding our business affairs, and without any money exchanging hands, we have satisfactorily resolved any and all differences that we perceived against Gearbox," 3D Realms cofounder and CEO Scott Miller said in a statement.

"In all sincerity, we regret the misunderstanding that instigated our lawsuit," Miller added. "Now that we better understand--and appreciate--the actual nature of our business matters, we have voluntarily withdrawn our claims against Gearbox, with genuine apologies to [Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford] for any damage that our lawsuit may have caused to the relationship."

3D Realms filed a breach of contract suit against Gearbox Software in June, claiming the studio failed to pay more than $2 million in royalties and advances related to Duke Nukem Forever. The lawsuit stems from the that saw the Duke Nukem IP officially shifted to Gearbox Software.

In addition, 3D Realms claimed that Gearbox Software blocked an independent audit of royalties earned on Duke Nukem Forever, a point the 2010 agreement should have kept them from doing. Gearbox Software issued a at the time, calling out Miller as someone who has had "more lawsuits than shipped games."

3D Realms exists today in name only, after being in 2009. The studio's legal name is now Apogee Software.

GamersNexus: "You play as Lo Wang, a war-hardened, loudmouthed, sword-wielding badass who fights through waves of demons and suit-clad henchmen. The racist, sexist 'humor' of the original game and of other 90s games, like Duke Nukem has mostly been removed in favor of more thought-out dialogue and other one-liners ('You got Wang!')."

DS - "When I mention NES we all remember a time when Donkey Kong was king, Mortal Kombat was the greatest fighting game weve ever seen and DuckTales was pure fun. Over the next twenty years weve seen remakes, reboots and revisions of our beloved 80s and 90s classics; some to our horror (Duke Nukem Forever) and some to our surprise (Tomb Raider)."

GF - "New takes on the classic shooter formula have been hit and miss with me. As much as I fondly remember games like Doom, Quake and Duke Nukem 3D, these days I now feel dizzied by the speed of games like Rise of the Triad and Nexuiz, two games that harken back to the good old days of first person shooters."

The original Shadow Warrior game was released back in 1997 by 3D realms, as a Duke-Nukem style FPS game, filled with gore, violence, and even some naked women in the shower. The game saw its share of criticism, as some protested the depiction of East Asian culture in the game, as well as the blatant Asian stereotyping used to make a fun game, which included parodies of bad kung-fu movies. The story followed the protagonist Lo Wang, who turns on his former boss Master Zilla, the head of the Zilla Enterprises company.
