Aspyr Media has announced the release of a new update for the Mac version of Duke Nukem Forever. In addition to bug fixes and improvements the patch also adds the ability to carry up to four weapons in single player mode, and thanks to the addition of cross platform multiplayer support the chance to compete against Windows version players.

Big news for Duke Nukem fans! Aspyr has recently finished work on the latest Duke Nukem Forever patch, and the update should be live shortly (if it isn’t already).

Cross-platform multiplayer is now at your fingertips! We’ve put together a short FAQ below (after the jump) that will hopefully answer any questions you may have. If we missed anything, let us know in the comments!
