In addition to a wide digital release, the EP was offered through nin.com in two other formats. One was a single-sided vinyl, and the other was a digital + "physical component for you to deal with" version. The physical component includes thick card stock papers containing song lyrics, various images and soot that will cover your hands upon opening. Many different unique variants have been reported. The EP was released on CD on November 17, 2017.

The warning sticker on the physical component's outer packaging reads:

<blockquote>To be read IN ITS ENTIRETY before opening. Actions have consequences! N.T.A.E. may contain subversive elements that produce feelings of euphoria and may be harmful and unsettling to the consumer. Likewise, this physical package may lead to unrealized expectations or unexpected results upon opening. Caution should be exercised with both. AND THIS IS IMPORTANT... This will make a mess. By opening this envelope in any way, you assume all risks to your person and/or property, and waive any claim against [[The Null Corporation]], any of its subsidiaries or affiliated entities from any and all damages or harm you may incur.</blockquote>

Side B of the vinyl version features 3 additional, unlisted tracks from ''[[The Downward Spiral (halo)|The Downward Spiral]]'' in reverse: "[[Hurt (song)|Hurt]]", "[[The Downward Spiral (song)|The Downward Spiral]]" and "[[Reptile]]". The vinyl also had a small amount of the black dust in its package, with smudges and fingerprints already on the sleeve and the record. There are also two variants of the lyric sheet, with one in blue and one in red.

==About==

==EP title==

The EP's title, ''Not The Actual Events'', is derived from the descrambled lyrics found within "Branches/Bones": ''Allowing myself to feel a sense of comfort in the past. Not the actual events but the way I choose to remember them and you.''
