The game is inspired by classic Duke Nukem ideas

There was a time when 3D Realms led the development of the shooter space, and the company is now ready to deliver a more in-depth look at the coming Bombshell experience, which is designed to offer a classic take on the mechanics of the genre.

The experience is clearly inspired by the Duke Nukem concept but focuses on a new character, a female bomb disposal expert who has a special robotic arm with some pretty cool powers.

Shelly Harrison, aka Bombshell, will have to put her mercenary past behind her as she explores a number of planets to save the president from captivity, where he is held by alien forces.

The title will be played from an isometric perspective, which gives 3D Realms a chance to tweak some of the core mechanics of the shooter genre and deliver some cool levels to explore and powerful bosses to try and take out.

Given the track record of 3D Realms fans might have relatively low expectations for the new title, but the company still has the potential to impress.

Bombshell does not currently have an official launch window, and it will probably be launched on the PC, the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.
