OBC Two is a Makkonian free-to-air public broadcast television channel owned and operated by OBC. In contrast to the mainstream OBC One channel, OBC Two broadcasts pilot programs along with 15+ content, whereas OBC One broadcasts any content for any age. Notably, OBC Two is one of the few channels that does not have a news segment.
Like OBC's other domestic TV and radio channels, it is funded by the broadcasting license, and is therefore free of commercial advertising. Originally a timeshift channel of OBC One, OBC Two was the 6th channel to launch, and launched in 2025. It is the home for less mainstream and brand new content.
