While most servers have individualized lore and backstories, Space Station 13 generally takes place in a research station owned by a megacorporation known as Nanotrasen. Nanotrasen's influence and power have effectively made them a government entity, but it is often left ambiguous as to whether they are good, evil or uncaring depending on the server. Due to Nanotrasen's immense stature, it is targeted by an array of third party aggressors. This includes but is not limited to; the Syndicate (a coalition of smaller companies and planetary governments), the Space Wizard Federation, shape-shifting Changelings, bloodthirsty Cultists, and various other antagonists.

The station exists to research the mysterious 'plasma', (or 'phoron' on some servers), which is a newly discovered mineral that Nanotrasen has taken a keen interest in, despite having almost no knowledge of its uses or properties.

In 2015 an unfinished Space Station 13 remake was made open-source on GitHub.
