Duke Nukel: Zero Hour vs TimeSplitters
Side-by-side comparison of features, pricing, ratings, and alternatives.

Duke Nukem returns in Zero Hour, a frantic shooter that thrusts the iconic hero through four distinct eras to stop a time‑spanning alien invasion. With over 30 gut‑wrenching levels, the game blends sci‑fi thrills, comedy one‑liners, and classic Duke‑style blood‑soaked action. Multiplayer fans can dive into split‑screen teamplay or deathmatch modes for up to four players, while solo players experience a single‑player campaign packed with over 20 new high‑octane weapons and outrageous enemies.
TimeSplitters is a first-person shooter and the first game in the acclaimed TimeSplitters series. Players embark on a campaign taking place at nine fictional locations between 1935 and 2035, guiding characters through missions to retrieve objects while evading and defeating the evil mutant TimeSplitters. Beyond the campaign, the game offers a robust multiplayer Arcade mode supporting up to four players and ten bots across six modes, alongside a custom level editor that lets players design and light their own maps from pre-made tiles.
