The long-awaited Chinese dubbing is here! Thank you to all our Chinese-speaking broadcasters for their patience but we are very happy to announce that NFB is now completely dubbed into Mandarin.

And not just that, oh no! We've also decided to completely redesign how we save your progress.

The game now has a 'Profile' system where all of your individual save games and playthroughs, rushes, adverts, epilogues and rewards are saved together under an overarching Profile.
All of your progress is kept together in one place, and you can have as many profiles as you'd like, so your Grandma can start her own game if she wants. You go grandma.

If you're new to the game, simply create a profile and you're good to go. Existing players can either combine their existing saves into a profile, convert individual games or start a new one. We save your Legacy saves in case you want to convert them later, but feel free to delete them to save space on your system.

We hope you're all staying safe and well. Our love goes out to all of our Broadcasters facing difficult times.

Episode 3 Chinese Dubbing Added
Profiles' Feature Added
Small bug fixes

Three weeks ago, we launched the completed version of Not For Broadcast. That event marked the end of the 2-year Early Access development phase. During this time, we've polished the game and added lots of content, including the third and final episode that concludes the story with one of fourteen different endings.

We would like to share some of the fun stuff that has been happening since we pushed that "Publish" button on the game's page. Here we go!


So, let us start with a fundamental question: do you obey?


ːadvancelogoː 28% of the players who completed the game got a pro-government ending;
ːdisruptː 72% went anti-government.

More than twice as many people have chosen to disobey. Which once again proves that humans are freedom-loving creatures.


The final version of the game has been received well by critics and press. We stand at 86 on Metascore based on favorable reviews from, among other outlets, Screen Rant, Hardcore Gamer and GameGrin.



The user Metascore is currently 8.6.


95%. Overwhelmingly Positive. We feel like we're living in paradise. It's just awfully nice, to be honest. Thank you so much to everyone who has taken their precious time to give us a thumbs up—it really helps the game to be featured more by Steam and thus attract more players.

Here are the reviews that we liked the most:

The Early Access version was covered by some of the most well-known gaming YouTubers from all over the world like jacksepticeye, Kuplinov ► Play, Gameplayrj and Dương FG. The trend has continued with the 1.0 launch: several big names have gotten their hands on the game, including 8-BitRyan, ViteC ► Play and Northernlion. Currently, Not For Broadcast is standing at 6.6K followers on Twitch.

Bloody hell, we didn't expect that much love from our community! There is already a lot of amazing creations from the players on Twitter, let alone the Discord server where #fanart is one of the most active channels. Here are just some of the fan works:

NFB is a game where a number one priority is immersing the player in a dark satirical atmosphere of a UK-based news channel that is involved in spreading aggressive political propaganda. To maximize the immersion for our Russian-speaking players, we hired 34 meticulously auditioned actors who did their best to convey the personalities of the charismatic announcers and quirky studio guests.
