RetroSpace is a new classic FPS dscribed by developer The Wild Gentlemen as “a disco-punk space horror” and as having “low-poly aesthetics”. Publisher Kwalee has announced that RetroSpace will be released on Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 1, 2026.
The game seems to pay homage to classics such as Half Life, where a simple man, in this case a janitor, has to take on a bunch of horrors to save mankind. In a statement, the developer said. “RetroSpace is a love letter to the immersive games of yesteryear, with a modern sensibility and some unique, genre-bending twists.”
Key features:
Narrative-heavy, humorous, and dark story – aka “disco-fever space-satire” with a surprising amount of depth and twists.
Immersive sim elements – choose how to solve problems and deal with obstacles. Take advantage of light and shadow, lure enemies into traps, hack turrets and security stations, find hidden routes, and create diversions.
Mutations (Mutamods™) are at your disposal to enhance your average stealth-shooter experience with juicy superpowers. BEWARE: With great power comes great responsibility (and unexpected side effects).
Modernized retro feel with low-poly aesthetics, infused with the 60s and 70s retro-futuristic setting and atmosphere.
Metroidvania-like, interconnected level design, and a meaningful death/rebirth system with a unique twist.
