What is RetroSpace?

RetroSpace is a disco-punk space horror from developer The Wild Gentlemen and publisher Kwalee. The story begins in 2177, when humanity's last hope is the AURORA fleet of floating space stations. You play a janitor who becomes the last hope of humanity aboard Aurora 5, a station swallowed by a sentient black hole, where weird animal and plant hybrids roam the corridors and time itself goes mad.

This wiki is written by players, for players, and it is not an official site. Every walkthrough, code, price, date and platform on these pages comes from the saved official and community sources listed with each article. Where the sources are silent, such as PlayStation pricing or full-game codes, we say so instead of guessing.

Aurora 5 rewards exploration: the official site describes an interconnected station with a mostly peaceful central HUB, shortcuts between areas, and multiple ways past every obstacle. Sneaking past a problem is as legitimate as trapping it or fighting it head-on, and every Mutamod mutation may come with unexpected side effects.
