Anno 2205 Orbital Station Guide · Hot & Ultimate

❌ Building too many production modules without enough Cargo Bays → goods pile up in orbit.
❌ Forgetting Orbital Food → Engineers go on strike, modules shut down.
❌ Ignoring Research Lab → you miss critical global upgrades (e.g., +20% all factory output).
❌ Placing modules randomly → missing adjacency bonuses.

The Orbital Station is a space-based sector orbiting Earth. It serves as:

You access it via the World Map after building the Spaceport in the Temperate region. anno 2205 orbital station guide

Before we min-max, we need context. The Orbital Station is the fifth "sector" of the game, accessed via the World Map. Unlike the dynamic sectors (Temperate, Arctic, Lunar, Tundra), the Orbital Sector is a static space platform.

How to unlock it:

Once built, the station acts as a Global Buff Hub. Unlike a factory that produces Steel, the Orbital Station produces no physical goods. Instead, it houses Modules that apply permanent, stackable buffs to every single sector in your entire corporation.

Once built, you enter the Orbital Station construction view – a radial grid around your station core. ❌ Building too many production modules without enough

A balanced 12-module setup for late game (50,000+ population total):

| Slot | Module | |------|--------| | 1 | Core | | 2 | Cargo Bay | | 3 | Cargo Bay | | 4 | Module Fabricator | | 5 | Hydroponics Bay | | 6 | Zero-G Foundry | | 7 | Pharma Lab | | 8 | Quantum Lab | | 9 | Research Lab | | 10 | Solar Array | | 11 | Logistics Uplink | | 12 | Broadcast Array | The Orbital Station is a space-based sector orbiting Earth

This yields:

Every module on the station can be upgraded, similar to the Arctic and Lunar sectors. You will need Lunar and Temperate rare resources to upgrade these modules.
