The desolate planet Sakaar is located near a wormhole, in the Tayo Star System, of the Fornax Galaxy. Many very powerful beings have found refuge on Sakaar. The planet is also home to various robotic and android beings of unknown origin; it is presumed that the technology as well as the inhabitants of Sakaar came to reside on the planet via the wormhole. Sakaar has been in a constant state of war by the barbaric refugees that called the planet home. The planet was ruled by the very powerful Red King, before he was overthrown by the Hulk and the Warbound warriors.
