What Duke Nukem II is

Duke Nukem II is an arcade game developed by Apogee Software and released in 1993. It is available on DOS, iOS, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows).

The premise, in the publisher's words

Duke Nukem is back. Captured by an alien foe in the middle of promoting his best-selling book, “Why I’m So Great”, Duke must once more defeat the forces of evil to save himself from the knowledge-stealing Rigelatins, and ultimately prove his book’s namesake. In this sequel to the 1991 high-octane, bot-busting video game, Duke Nukem, the King of Action must blast, cannon, missile and flame his way to victory - a victory that would stop the secrets of both ass-kicking and bubblegum from falling into the wrong hands.
