Not For Broadcast may still not be ready for broadcast, but it is ready
for prime time, and is officially out following its Early Access run. This news
management simulator is now available for Windows on
Epic
Games Store,
GOG.com,
and
Steam. The title notwithstanding, the
Launch Trailer is
indeed for broadcast, so, you know, feel free. Word is the FMV in the video is
part of a record: "The launch update brings Not For Broadcast up to a staggering
42 hours 57 minutes of live-action footage to edit, splice and unleash on an
unsuspecting nation, as confirmed by
Guinness World Records. Here's word:
Not For Broadcast sets players
loose at the broadcasting desk for the National Nightly News. No time to plan;
this is live TV! Pick the camera angles, bleep the swearing, and make editorial
decisions that might just change the course of history. Or at least your own
bank-balance. No pressure, eh? And a job's a job.
Managing live TV sounds intimidating, but Not For Broadcast makes it fun and
accessible through a powerful yet easy-to-learn interface. Switch between video
feeds with a single button, clear up static, pick and run which sponsor's tapes
to run and always keep an eye on the ratings—there's nothing worse than a bored
viewer!
