Duke Xtreme is a pseudo-shovelware expansion pack released in 1997 by WizardWorks for Duke Nukem 3D. It contains 50 usermaps that were collected from BBSes and the Internet, a .CON editor, many interchangeable .CON hacks, and an extensive front-end. Since this add-on was developed for Windows 95, its essential front-end does not work under newer versions of Windows and because of this not many are able to run the add on. It is nearly impossible to set up with source ports; however, you can play the maps and use the new arts with ease. With quite a bit of work and cunning, you can get it running under DOSBox. Most of the maps have been criticized for their poor quality. The mod includes two new enemies, the King Cobra and the Gorilla Captain, as well as four new weapons: the knife, silent Uzi, roman candle launcher, and the statue maker.
Some Features of the expansion 
Edit
- Optional new replacements for the Mighty Boot, Pistol, and Devastator. The replacements are a Knife, Silenced Pistol, and Devastator with a different look. They function like their original counterparts.
- Player can modify their own health.
- Strengths of weapons can be modified such as the pistol being able to do 500 damage at maximum.
- Almost every enemy's health amount can be lowered or raised. This means the player could even lower the mini battlelord's health to 30. The only exceptions are the Protector Drone, Pig Cop Tank and The Queen because for unknown reasons they aren't available to modify in the command centre despite the fact the expansion came out after the Atomic Edition.
- New levels though it doesn't include any new episodes.
- Two new enemies; Gorilla Captain and the King Cobra
- Statue Maker which allows the player to use the Freezethrower to turn enemies into statues if they hold in the space bar.
- Blood Fountains which replaces the water of objects such as broken fire hydrants with blood.
- Gore levels could be modified so the player could make gore more frequent and bloody etc.
- Destructible cameras. With this option enabled security cameras could be destroyed; in addition to the camera being destroyed the security monitor's linked to the camera will display static in relation to any camera that was destroyed which means the area the camera used to be in will no longer be viewable through the security monitor.
