Save file locations

Windows (Steam)

<Steam folder>\userdata\<your-ID>\1182900\remote

Full path example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<your-ID>\1182900\remote . App ID 1182900. The <your-ID> folder is unique per account — open whichever number is present.

Windows (GOG)

%LOCALAPPDATA%\GOG.com\Galaxy\Applications\55243620139303375\Storage\Shared\Files

The GOG build stores saves under the Galaxy Applications folder rather than Steam userdata.

Windows (Microsoft Store / Game Pass)

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\FocusHomeInteractiveSA.APlagueTaleRequiem-Windows_4hny5m903y3g0\SystemAppData\wgs

Game Pass saves live in the sandboxed Packages folder under a wgs container.

Cloud saves

A Plague Tale: Requiem uses Steam Cloud through the userdata folder. Close Steam before copying a backup so a mid-sync write doesn't corrupt it; after a conflict keep the newer copy.

How to open the save folder

Open your Steam install folder (default C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam).
Go to userdata → your numeric ID folder → 1182900 → remote.
Close Steam, then copy the whole 1182900 folder somewhere safe before editing or moving PCs.

Save problems & fixes

A Plague Tale: Requiem save won’t load or says it’s corrupt

Close the game fully, then look for an automatic backup next to the save (a .bak or numbered copy) and copy it over the broken file. On Steam, also right-click the game → Properties → Installed Files → Verify integrity of game files.

My A Plague Tale: Requiem save is missing or the folder is empty

You are usually in the wrong sub-folder — open the numbered profile/Steam-ID folder inside the path above, not its parent. If still empty, cloud sync may not have finished before the game overwrote the local copy; reconnect and let the cloud sync complete before launching.

A Plague Tale: Requiem progress rolled back after a cloud sync

When Steam reports a save conflict, keep the version with the LATER timestamp — choosing the older cloud copy overwrites newer local progress, the most common cause of lost hours. If unsure, back up the local folder first, then let the cloud sync.
