Content studios and exclusive programme rights

Buildings Markets Economy

Produce films and programmes in a Content Studio, lease exclusive titles and build your station’s schedule. Every playable country starts with 180 titles.

Content Studios create named news bulletins, music and radio programmes, documentaries, series episodes and films. Choose a production budget, hire staff and expand your production lines. Budget and your corporation’s experience determine quality; larger productions take more game days.

National content markets open with 180 titles each. Producers choose a lease fee and duration. Only one corporation can lease a title at a time, and its compatible stations share those rights. Reserve your own titles for your stations with a free internal lease.

TV and radio stations now queue leased programmes instead of producing content themselves. Completed broadcasts report their share of actual audience and advertising revenue. Repeats lose appeal, and broadcasts must finish before their rights expire. Municipal radio stations lease affordable programmes from the same market.

Existing paid content keeps its original rights and production date. Digital platforms retain their production and publishing library.
