Console saves are sealed and can't be copied as raw files. Back them up to PS Plus cloud or a USB drive from this menu.
Cloud saves
On PC, Cult of the Lamb uses Steam Cloud, so your slot files sync across machines with the same account. Close the game before restoring a backup so Steam Cloud doesn't overwrite it with the newer online copy.
How to open the save folder
- Press Win + R to open the Run box.
- Type %userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow and press Enter.
- Open Massive Monster > Cult Of The Lamb > saves to find slot_0.json, slot_1.json and their meta_N.json files.
- Copy the whole save folder somewhere safe before editing, modding, or moving PCs.
