Subspace,[1] alternatively spelled Sub-space[2][3][4] or Sub-Space,[5][6] also known as the Hidden World,[7] and misspelled as Sup-Space on one occasion,[8] is an alternate dimension to Subcon in Super Mario Bros. 2. It features dark terrain mirrored on a single screen, which the player cannot travel beyond. Subspace can only be accessed by entering a door from a Magical Potion. The player character can be in Subspace for a few seconds only, after which they are taken back into the main level. A Mushroom may appear in Subspace to be collected, depending on where the player character has entered from. All items found in any available red grass are transformed into coins when the player plucks them, though for the first two visits only, and any still-standing grass tufts give unripe vegetables afterwards. Depending on the area, players can also collect cherries, Starmen, and POWs. Cherries and POWs do not vanish upon returning to the main level. Within this zone, a few jars contain a Subspace Warp[9] that can be entered for the player character to instantly skip over to a later world, similarly to a Warp Zone in Super Mario Bros.

In the game's two remakes, the background is the same, but the level terrain is colored-in, rather than black. In Super Mario Advance only, Yoshi Eggs are hidden in Subspace after Wart is defeated.

In BS Super Mario USA, entering any jar in Subspace sends the player directly to Wart's chamber. There are no enemies, but Phanto can follow the player into Subspace if they were holding the key. The player can still die by falling into a pit or drowning in quicksand, but this will allow another chance for obtaining coins.
