How to Transfer Your Vampire Survivors Save to a New PC
Switching computers? Here's exactly which Vampire Survivors save files to copy, where they live, and how to make sure your progress loads on the new PC.
%APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors\saves
Copy the saves folder from %APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors (Steam) — this holds all your unlocks and progress.
Where the files live: see the full Vampire Survivors save file location guide for every platform path (PS5, Xbox, Steam Cloud).
How to transfer your Vampire Survivors save to a new PC
- On the old PC, press Win+R, paste %APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors\saves, and press Enter to open the save folder.
- Copy the saves folder from %APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors (Steam) — this holds all your unlocks and progress.
- Copy those files to a USB drive, cloud folder (OneDrive/Google Drive), or network share.
- Install Vampire Survivors on the new PC and launch it once, then close it — this creates the empty save folder.
- Open the same path (%APPDATA%\Vampire_Survivors\saves) on the new PC and paste your copied files in, overwriting if asked.
- Launch the game and confirm your progress loaded before deleting the backup copy.
Does cloud sync move it for you?
Yes on PC — the Steam build uses Steam Cloud (the Epic build uses Epic cloud), so your saves folder syncs across machines on the same account. Close the game fully before swapping files.
Common mistakes
- Forgetting to close the game / let the cloud finish syncing before copying — a later sync can overwrite your restore.
- Steam and Epic use different folders (Vampire_Survivors vs Vampire_Survivors_EGS) — copy from the store you actually own the game on.
