Gearbox and Bobby Prince have come to an agreement over the use of Duke Nukem music.
In 2019, Robert “Bobby” Prince filed a lawsuit against Gearbox, alleging he owned the copyright on some of the music in 2016’s Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour, itself a remaster of the 1996 original.
Prince believed the use of his music in the earlier Duke games was subject to a licence agreement between Prince and 3D Realms. Thus, Gearbox did not own the rights to certain music it thought it owned the rights to.
