description Ion Fury Overview
Ion Fury is a first-person shooter developed by Voidpoint and published by 3D Realms in 2019. The game stars Shelly Harrison, a character originally created for the 1996 game Duke Nukem 3D as a discarded protagonist concept, and runs on the Build engine, the same game engine used for Duke Nukem 3D and several other commercial releases of the mid-1990s. Ion Fury is notable as one of the last commercial games to be built on that technology, and it is designed to mimic the visual style and gameplay of shooters from that period.
