Dragon Age: The Veilguard Save File Location

Here's exactly where Dragon Age: The Veilguard stores your save on every platform, how to open the folder, and how to back it up.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam / EA app)
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age The Veilguard\save games

Full path: C:\Users\<YourName>\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age The Veilguard\save games\ . Both the Steam and EA app builds use this same folder.

PlayStation 5
Settings > Saved Data and Game/App Settings > Saved Data

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.

Xbox Series X|S
My games & apps > Dragon Age: The Veilguard > Manage game > Saved data

Xbox saves sync automatically to the cloud with your Microsoft account; there is no user-accessible save file on disk.

Cloud saves

On PC, Veilguard syncs through Steam Cloud and/or the EA app cloud, so your saves follow your account across machines. If a cloud and local save conflict after offline play, keep the newer copy so you don't lose progress.

How to open the save folder

  1. Press Win + R to open the Run box.
  2. Type %userprofile%\Documents and press Enter.
  3. Open BioWare > Dragon Age The Veilguard > save games.
  4. Copy the whole save games folder somewhere safe before editing, modding, or moving PCs.

Save problems & fixes

Dragon Age: The Veilguard save won't load or is missing

Confirm you're signed into the same Steam/EA account and that cloud sync finished before launch. Restore a copied save games folder if a save became corrupt after a crash.
