The player-character is a bro, a hypermasculine action hero-style commando, who fights terrorists and rescues his bro teammates and prisoners of war from captivity.[2] The levels end when the player defeats a foreign devil boss, hoists an American flag, and leaves via helicopter while the scenery explodes.[3] The bro character names parody those of fictional action heroes such as John Rambo, Die Hard’s John McClane, Chuck Norris, Mr. T, Alien’s Ellen Ripley, and Terminator’s T-800 by adding the word “bro”[2][3] (e.g., Rambro, the Brominator).[4] The Broforce team is under direction from “Nelson Brodela”.
