This article lists the content exclusive to events in Retrobution.
Such events have players stick together to fight enemies and seeing a lot of familiar faces, either for fun or to tease a future update. Typical events aside, Retrobution also makes use of mini-events, which are hosted in real time by the Game Masters and often involve them spawning in enemies manually for players to fight. Mini-events can happen spontaneously.
According to the development team, some events are canonical to the story of Retrobution, while others are not.
2021
Johnny Bravo Mini-Events
- Date range: 06.17.2021 - 06.19.2021
- Status: Non-canon
The 2021 Johnny Bravo Mini-Events were the first events held in Retrobution. Its plotline revolved around Johnny Bravo's return from his trip to Monster Island.
At the start of the event, Jonny invited everyone to his mansion at Bravo Beach. As he was interacting with players and prepared to give out souvenirs from his trip, a band of Fusion Monsters, who had been following Johnny, arrived on Bravo Beach. Johnny subsequently led the players to a small island by the beach where they defeated a group of Shipwreckers. Afterwards, Johnny handed out the Sword of Billy to the players before leaving to get his beauty sleep.
Two days later, on June 19, Johnny returned, saying that he had sent a letter to Drew Saturday, asking her to meet him in the Ruins, with him getting a response back from her agreeing to his proposal. On his way there, he encountered Ben on Mount Blackhead, who became interested in meeting Drew after Johnny informed him about her. As Johnny left for the Ruins, Ben followed him, transforming in and out of different aliens along the way, with both of them insulting and teasing each other as they went. With the help of the accompanying players, Johnny and Ben got the Ruins where, after some searching, they found Carl instead of Drew, prompting a dismayed Ben to leave. Carl informed Johnny that he had received a letter from him referring to him by his middle name "Drew", and that "Saturday" was the day to meet him at the Ruins. Johnny, heavily dismayed at the mix-up, ran away crying for his mother, to which Carl proceeded to follow him while continuing to talk about his interests. After the players lost sight of the pair, Ben reappeared as Spidermonkey and commented on how annoying Carl was, saying that he could hear him all the way from Monkey Mountain, and that he had to shut him up. Ben then left, ending the event.
During the event, players could follow Johnny around the Cartoon Network Universe, who would lead them to points of interest, fighting normal or unique monsters along the way.

Its plotline revolved around the Infected Zones' energy shields breaking down, leading to Fusion Monsters and Fusions alike escaping their confinements and invading other areas.
During the event, various Fusion Monsters and Fusions would randomly pop up in different areas that they were not native to, allowing players to fight them and clean up all the areas that they invaded. In addition, different Cartoon Network NPCs would show up to join different fights, such as Dexter, Blossom, and the Scotsman.

- Date range: 06.27.2021
- Status: Non-canon
The 2021 DexLabs Conference was the conclusion to the preceding Fusion Safari events. It was held at 9pm GMT at the Great Machine. Its plotline revolved around Dexter and Mandark making a public announcement about recent developments.
At the start, Dexter appeared, waiting impatiently for the attendees to get a safe distance away. Once all was in order, he announced that the crashing energy shields from the Fusion Safaris had been brought back online. Mandark then arrived for the purpose of congratulating the participants, only to get into an argument with Dexter over who deserved the credit for fixing the energy shields. Afterwards, the boy geniuses warped away using NanoComs so Dexter's assistants could move onto the main reason for the conference: to showcase of the Flapjack and Johnny Bravo Nanos. Those Nanos were announced to be in development, but would not be available for a long time. As the assistants finished their presentation though, several Fusions and powerful Fusion Monsters ambushed the site in waves. After they were all cleared out, Dexter and Mandar returned. Apologizing for being preoccupied during the ambush, Dexter ensured the attendees received a reward: the Golden Oar, which Dexter had his assistant demonstrate by attacking the players. Afterwards, Dexter introduced the code for redeeming the Golden Oar. Towards the end, Mandark then began running towards Genius Grove to see Dee Dee, with Dexter hot on his heels. When the pair got to Dee Dee though, Dee Dee embarrassed Mandark by mentioning how he mistook Fusion Dee Dee for her, ending the event.
During the event, players could fight Fusions and Fusion Monsters, such as Maximum Bads, that were spawned at the site. Afterwards, they could receive the Golden Oar. Soon after that, the players could follow Dexter and Mandark from City Hall to Genius Grove.

4th of July
- Date range: 07.04.2021
- Status: Canon
The 2021 4th of July event was hosted at the gazebo in Townsville Center. Its plotline revolved around a Major Glory fan, referred to as "Minor Glory" and controlled by Game Master Plants 10000, posing as the real Major Glory at the meet-up, only for the real Major Glory to show up.
In the beginning, Minor Glory showed up at the site, claiming to the attendees that he was the real Major Glory when he was actually just the president of Major Glory's fan club and had taken up the superhero's mantle in his absence in hopes of receiving the admiration of a superhero. As the event turned into a dance party and Minor Glory relished in the attention however, the real Major Glory showed up at the site. Minor Glory tried to accuse the real Major Glory of being an imposter due to his absence, but the superhero casually pointed out Minor Glory's identity and explained how he had recently recovered from having his soul stolen, prompting Minor Glory to run off. As Major Glory proceeded to talk with the attendees and caught up on what had happened in his absence, the meetup turned into an Independence Day celebration. However, Fusion Monsters soon after attacked the site. After they had been wiped out though, Minor Glory returned to seize the glory, just as Major Glory found a box from which Fusion Demongo emerged and captured him. After Fusion Demongo was defeated, Majory Glory returned from imprisonment. Minor Glory then apologized to Major Glory for impersonating him, who forgave him and insisted that he nonetheless had the potential to be a great hero before leaving to do some hero-ing.
During the event, players could fight both Fusions and Fusion Monsters, such as Maximum Bads, that were spawned at the site. When the event then ended, a code for the Patriotic set was revealed.

Along with their addition were also three exclusive missions, which included a reworked "Hallows Eve Helper" and the "Ancient Evils" duology.

Ice King Invasion
- Date range: 12.25.2021 - 02.01.2022
- Status: Canon (to FusionFall Retro itself)
The 2021 Ice King Invasion event featured the return of the 2019 Ice King's Home Invasion event. It was originally scheduled to end on 8 January 2022, but it was then extended to 10 January 2022. It later got extended again due to the work that was needed to remove it. It came to an end on 1 February 2022.
The event included a few differences from the original, but it has essentially the same content. Later, on New Years Day, another update was released that fixed bugs and added both a new code item and enemy. It followed the Ice King after Fusion Monsters forced him to temporarily relocate to Pokey Oaks South from his home in the Ice Kingdom while Finn and Jake took care of the situation, only for the Ice King to get into trouble with Lord Fuse's minions infesting his local Penguin Playground.
The event featured the Ice King and Gunter as seasonal NPCs in Pokey Oaks South, along with the returning icy aesthetic, such as the Penguin Playground, an extremely tall and area-wide ice structure, in the back of Pokey Oaks South. Furthermore, snowy weather appeared across the Cartoon Network Universe, new background music would play around the Penguin Playground, and penguins that showed up in nearby areas with signs pointing towards the event. Among the new area aesthetic in Pokey Oaks South were also several new and old exclusive Fusion Monsters and temporary additions, such as a Nano Station, a Potions Vendor, and a Morbucks Savings and Loan banker. The event also included four exclusive missions, all handed out by the Ice King, which would take players up on the Penguin Playground to battle new Fusion Monsters and enter Fusion Lairs, where Fusions like Fusion Ice King and Fusion Gunter could be fought.
The event also introduced several old and new exclusive items, earned by either redeeming codes or opening C.R.A.T.E.s dropped by exclusive monsters.

Nano Prom
- Date range: 08.25.2022
- Status: Non-canon
The 2022 Nano Prom was a gathering of players hosted by the developers for Retrobution. It invited players to a contest in Forgotten Falls to cosplay as a Nano and then bring that Nano to the site of the event.
At it, the developers encouraged the attendees to use their dance Emotes. After a while, they had the attendees line up for a group picture. Once the picture had been taken, the developers had the players come with them to a site where the costume contest would be held. After going through the contestants one by one, one of the developers, Plants 10000, announced that the three chosen winners would be announced after the event. Afterwards, Cheese showed up, looking for chocolate milk. As Cheese joined the group for another group picture though, he burped up a few waves of Fusion Cheeses due to having eaten Fusion Matter. After the attendees destroyed the Fusions, Cheese felt better and the group proceeded to take their group picture.
Later, the following winners of the Nano Prom (and their winning costumes) were announced on the official Retrobution Discord server:
- Ken The Drake (Numbuh Two costume)
- Numbuh Three (Numbuh Five costume)
- Squishy The Dog (Lord Uniscorn costume)
Each winner was rewarded with the Photo Back, which they could claim by directly messaging Plants 10000 in the game.

Numbuh Two Rocket Training
- Date range: 09.03.2022
- Status:
The 2022 Numbuh Two Rocket Training was an event for educating players about the new mechanics behind the Rocket weapons in Retrobution.
During the event, Numbuh Two showed up at Mount Blackhead to give the players a Kids Next Door practice session on the newest 2x4 Rocket technology. As a part of the session, Numbuh Two laid down some ground rules before guiding the players towards different sites around Mount Blackhead, having them attack "special training dummies" created in the likeness of Fusion Monsters to demonstrate how the Rockets worked up close, from a distance, against lone enemies, and against groups. At the end of the session, Kevin's car (set on autopilot) appeared as a target for the final test. After the players successfully destroyed the car though, Kevin came and attacked the players in rage over how they wrecked his car. Regardless, the players managed to defeat Kevin and subdue him. Numbuh Two congratulated the players for beating Kevin. Kevin, however, noted that the Kids Next Door would be hearing from Ben and the Plumbers, but Numbuh Two was not worried, insisting that a car is not as important as defeating Fuse, something which Kevin reluctantly agreed with despite showing animosity at him for what transpired. Afterwards, Numbuh Two had the players and Kevin come together for a graduation picture. Numbuh Two then returned to his post in Sector V while Kevin told him and the players to watch their backs as he went back to Nowhere while being followed by other players, much to his disdain.
During the event, players could follow Numbuh Two around and fight Fusion Monsters that were spawned at different sites. It ended with the players having to defeat Kevin's Car, who served as a lvl. 1 Cosmix opponent, and then Kevin himself, who served as a lvl. 36 Blastons opponent with the Freedom power.

Stop the Growths!
- Date range: 09.17.2022
- Status:
The 2022 Stop the Growths! was a team-based competition. It was set to last from 5pm to 10pm EST in Sector V, but lasted only from 5pm to 8pm EST due to technical difficulties with game stability. Its plotline focused on the heroes trying to contain an outbreak of new Fusion Monsters.
For the occasion, players were told to gather in Hero Square for an announcement. There, the players would meet Samurai Jack, Numbuh One, and Johnny Bravo. Numbuh One explained that a strange group of Fusion Monsters had appeared in the area and were causing trouble, so Dexter assigned three teams to take care of the threat, with each team being led by either Jack, Numbuh One, or Johnny. The event concluded with each team's leader saying their farewells after the threat had been defeated and taking group pictures with their respective teams.
During it, players had to pick one out of three teams to be on, each one led by a hero. Only one team could be picked per Avatar. Once a choice had been made, the players had to use a code to receive a special katana-based Melee weapon and team badge that corresponded with their chosen team:
| Team | Leader | Team code | Weapon | Badge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adaptium | Samurai Jack | teamblue | Soul Slicer | Team Adaptium's Badge |
| Blastons | Numbuh One | teamred | BloodLetter | Team Blaston's Badge |
| Cosmix | Johnny Bravo | teamyellow | Menace of Midas | Team Cosmix's Badge |
The event would be about players duking it out with new types of event-exclusive Fusion Monsters to see which team could slay the most of those Fusion Monsters. Those Fusion Monsters would keep spawning around Sector V for the duration of the event. The team badges that the players carried would each keep track of how many event-exclusive Fusion Masters they defeated in battle, and thus their score.
After the event had passed, the rankings of each team would be announced:
| Place | Team | Score |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Blastons | 119,070 |
| 2nd | Adaptium | 114,310 |
| 3rd | Cosmix | 84,903 |
The top five highest-scoring players for the event were as follows:
| Place | Team | Score |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Ace Sanya | 20,500 |
| 2nd | Lil Uzi | 16,510 |
| 3rd | Captain Wise Balloon | 14,880 |
| 4th | Big Daddy | 13,910 |
| 5th | Admiral Emberdragon | 10,850 |
When the event ended, each team member was given an exclusive hat as reward, and the members of the winning team got the Milk Magnum. The players were also able to keep their exclusive Melee weapons for a couple of days before they were removed from the game.

A Strange Book
- Date range: 10.01.2022
- Status:
The 2022 A Strange Book event was a mini-event. It was originally scheduled to take place from 6:00pm to 8:00pm EST in the Boneyard, but ended up ending shortly after 7:00pm EST due to technical difficulties. Its plotline centered on Billy messing with forbidden artifacts.
At the event, Billy showed up to show the attendees a strange book that Runty had brought him and Grim had warmed him not to open. Going by his intuition, Billy opened the book, which summoned a Weeper. After it had been destroyed though, Billy summoned another one, being thoroughly entertained by the fighting. After the Weeper was defeated, Billy showed up again and explain how it reminded him of the Fusion cookie from Runty that he once ate, only to make him sick and regurgitate a Fusion Billy. Having a piece of a Fusion Billy left inside his nose, Billy sneezed out a fully formed Fusion Billy, whom the players destroyed. With his nose cleared, Billy was reminded of another time, while on a dimensional trip with Grim, where Grim took a red book of forbidden magic from a shady guy. Having brought the book with him, Billy giddily opened it and summoned five Weepers. After a while though, the Weepers disappeared and Billy left before Grim came for the book. Billy soon came back though, having been sent there by Grim to take a group picture with the players so he would have photographic proof of Billy's "demon crime" for the demon council, before leaving for the court. Soon after, the players received an apology message from Grim, saying that Billy had been sent to candy jail for a ten minute time-out.
During the event, players could fight unique Fusion Monsters and Fusions that were spawned in the Boneyard.

Straight Outta Nowhere!

The 2022 Straight Outta Nowhere! event was a mini-event. It was originally scheduled to happen on 15 October 2022, from 6:00pm to 7:00 pm EST, but got delayed to the same time the next day. Its plotline revolved around Courage organizing a group to halt Fuse's operations.
The event started out in Devil's Bluff. There, Courage was tasked by Dexter and Hoss Delgado to investigate a swarm of deadly and powerful Fusion Monsters, who were digging for ancient runes that Fuse could use for evil. Despite his doubts, Courage led the group of attendees into Devil's Canyon, with the goal of defeating the Fusion Monsters, finding their leader, and stopping them. Eventually, their search for the runes and the Fusion Monsters took them to Nowhere, where they found that Fusion Courage was the leader of the excavation. However, the heroes were too late; while they were able to defeat Fusion Courage and the Fusion Monsters under his command, the runes were gone by the time they reached the dig site. Courage himself noted that he did not know what would happen next, but it could not be good, and so advised the players to keep their eyes out for anything strange while he returned to his post.
During the event, players could follow Courage around and fight exclusive Fusion Monsters that were spawned at different sites. Those Fusion Monsters kept attacking Devil's Canyon for an hour after the main part. They dropped New Year-themed items, and the boss version of the exclusive Fusion Monsters dropped the Milk Magnum.

St. Patrick's Day
- Date range: 03.17.2024
- Status:
The 2024 St. Patrick's Day was the first event held in Retrobution in honor of that holiday. It focused on a scavenger hunt for Lee O'Mally.
For the occasion, players were challenged to seek out leprechaun NPCs named "Lee O'Mally", which were hidden in hard-to-reach locations, necessitating players to solve intricate riddles to uncover their whereabouts. If they could find them, they had the change to buy a Leprechaun set from them. Moreover, some of the hero NPCs were mysteriously possessed, posing threats to the participants.
The event featured a number of guest appearances, including Kevin and his car, Buttercup, Vilgax, and Mel Anzana, who all joined in the festivities, dancing and celebrating alongside the players. After the event concluded, the Retrobution development team teased some upcoming updates.

Birthday Bash
- Date range: 06.18.2024 - 07.19.2024
- Status:
The 2024 Birthday Bash was an event held in honor of the third anniversary of Retrobution. During it, a giant, climbable birthday cake akin to the one in FusionFall Retro, but with a chocolate theme added to it, was added on the border between Pokey Oaks South and Pokey Oaks North in the Past. In addition, several old and new NPCs would appear around the setting.
The event also introduced over seventy new exclusive items, many of which could be obtained from 3rd Anniversary Presents that were dropped by exclusive Fusion Monsters that spawned around the areas' birthday cake. For that purpose, a Potions Vendor, a Power Shopkeeper, and five NPCs that gave access to the five individual Morbucks Savings and Loan bank vaults were added. Other exclusive items could be bought from the Retired Birthday Basher and Party Planner. Among them were also previews of new vehicles set to become mainstays in the game later on as well. Such vehicles could be rented from the Party Planner.
The event wrapped up with the players taking a group picture together.

However, the event introduced several new exclusive items to be obtained from the Pumpkin CRATEs. Most of the Croc Pot vendors received seasonal attires and the skybox returned with better textures for the moon. A boss version of the Pumpkin Spawns, the Jumbo Pumpkin Spawn, was also introduced. To accommodate the item hunting players, a Potions Vendor, a Nano Station, and five NPCs that gave access to the five individual Morbucks Savings and Loan bank vaults were added to the areas of interest too.

Ice King Invasion
- Date range: 01.04.2025 - 02.13.2025
- Status: Canon
The 2025 Ice King Invasion was a winter event rather than a holiday event. It was basically a repetition of the content from the first version of the 2021 Ice King Invasion event, but with a number of changes. These included several new items and changes to drops from exclusive C.R.A.T.E.s to accommodate said items. In terms of changes to the aesthetics, snow-covered ground and surfaces would appear around the Cartoon Network Universe to accompany the snowfall, a Shmingerbread House appeared in Pokey Oaks South, Christmas-themed gazebos showed up on both the Pokey Oaks North/South border and in the Sunken Mall in Townsville Center, and Fusion Spawn-derived monsters, Runty, and Croc Pot vendors began wearing winter outfits. It also featured the appearance of Chowder and Kimchi in Pokey Oaks South and Shnitzel in Townsville Mall as seasonal NPCs. In addition, Sour Ron and the Puckerberry Overlords would sell exclusive vehicles to players in Pokey Oaks South.

Valentine's Day
- Date range: 02.13.2025 - 03.01.2025
- Status: Canon
The 2025 Valentine's Day event featured the return of the 2019 Valentine's Day event, complete with Johnny Bravo, Flapjack, Bubbie, and the Blood Gnat Exterminators as seasonal NPCs, albeit with a few updates. Its main plotlines focused on the Blood Gnat Exterminators trying to contain a Blood Gnat infestation that Flapjack and Bubbie had accidentally brought to the mainland, and Dr. Estrangelove's studies of Johnny and his immunity to the Blood Gnats.
The occasion was centered in Candy Cove. Aesthetic changes to the local environment included a Blood Gnat Exterminator camp on the coast, a small island just off the coast, and Bubbie herself, who appeared as a fully-fleshed character model, unlike in FusionFall Retro. In addition, new Killer Blood Gnats would appear along the creek in Candy Cove and Peach Creek Commons. During the event, the Blood Gnat Exterminators would also hand out five exclusive missions. It also introduced several new exclusive items earned from both clearing missions and opening the exclusive Killer Blood Gnat CRATEs dropped by Killer Blood Gnats. Among those items was the Powdered Flart, which, when used, would create the Panini Nano.
To accommodate the item hunting players, a Potions Vendor, a Nano Station, and five NPCs that gave access to the five individual Morbucks Savings and Loan bank vaults were added to Candy Cove too.
