Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice Save File Location
Here's exactly where Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice stores your save on every platform, how to open the folder, and how to back it up.
Save file locations
%APPDATA%\Sekiro\<SteamID>
Full path: C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Roaming\Sekiro\<numeric Steam ID>\ . The save file is S0000.sl2 (with a matching S0000.sl2.bak backup).
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.
My games & apps > <Game> > 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, Sekiro uses Steam Cloud, so your S0000.sl2 save syncs across machines with the same Steam account. If Steam Cloud and a local save conflict, choose carefully — picking the wrong one can overwrite progress.
How to open the save folder
- Press Win + R to open the Run box.
- Type %appdata% and press Enter.
- Open the Sekiro folder, then the folder named with a long number (your Steam ID).
- Copy the whole save folder somewhere safe before editing, modding, or moving PCs.

Can I use someone else's Sekiro save?
Saves are tied to your Steam ID. To use another save you typically need to rename the folder to your own Steam ID and match the file name; a mismatch can cause it to be ignored.
