Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Save File Location

Quick answer: On PC, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 saves to C:\Users\<YourName>\Saved Games\kingdomcome2\saves\ . Copy that folder to back up your Henry before a big decision.

Here's exactly where Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 keeps your saves on PC and console, how to open the folder, and how to back them up before a risky quest.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam / Epic / GOG)
C:\Users\<YourName>\Saved Games\kingdomcome2\saves\

Inside 'saves' is a playline0 folder holding your autosaves, quicksaves and manual saves. This path is the same across Steam, Epic and GOG.

Windows (Game Pass PC)
C:\Users\<YourName>\Saved Games\kingdomcome2\saves\

The Game Pass PC build uses the same Saved Games\kingdomcome2 path; saves also sync to Xbox cloud with your account.

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

Console saves 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 › Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 › Manage game › Saved data

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

Cloud saves

On PC the game supports cloud saves (Steam Cloud on the Steam version), so your progress follows your account to other machines. After playing offline, keep the copy with the later timestamp if a cloud conflict appears — the older one overwrites newer hours.

How to open the save folder

  1. Press Win + R to open the Run box.
  2. Type %userprofile%\Saved Games and press Enter.
  3. Open the kingdomcome2 folder.
  4. Open saves › playline0.
  5. Copy the whole kingdomcome2 folder somewhere safe before a risky quest or update.

Save problems & fixes

KCD2 save won't load or is corrupt

Close the game and restore an earlier file from saves\playline0 (autosaves are numbered). On Steam, also Verify integrity of game files via Properties → Installed Files.

My KCD2 saves are missing after moving PCs

Copy the entire Saved Games\kingdomcome2 folder, not just individual files, and place it at the identical path on the new machine while the game is closed so cloud sync doesn't overwrite it.

Progress rolled back after a cloud conflict

Keep the save with the LATER timestamp. If unsure, disable cloud sync, back up the local kingdomcome2 folder, then re-enable and let it sync.
