Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Save File Location

Quick answer: On PC, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers save files are stored in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Project_Plague\Saved\<user-id>\GameSlots (Project_Plague is the game's internal codename). Copy that folder to back up your progress before updating or moving to a new PC.

Here's exactly where Wuchang: Fallen Feathers keeps your progress on PC, how to open the folder, and how to back it up before a tough boss.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam)
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Project_Plague\Saved\<user-id>\GameSlots

Full path: C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Local\Project_Plague\Saved\<user-id>\GameSlots\ . Project_Plague is the internal codename for Wuchang; <user-id> is your account folder.

Windows (Xbox / Game Pass)
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\505GAMESS.P.A.WuchangPCGP_*\SystemAppData\wgs

The Game Pass / Microsoft Store build stores saves in its own package folder under AppData\Local\Packages instead of the Project_Plague folder.

Xbox Series X|S
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.

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.

Cloud saves

On PC, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers uses Steam Cloud, so your GameSlots folder syncs across machines on the same account. Close the game before restoring a backup so Steam Cloud doesn't overwrite it with the older online copy on the next launch.

How to open the save folder

  1. Press Win + R to open the Run box.
  2. Type %localappdata% and press Enter.
  3. Open Project_Plague > Saved > your <user-id> folder > GameSlots.
  4. Copy the whole save folder somewhere safe before editing, modding, or moving PCs.

Save problems & fixes

Cloud save overwrote my newer local save (or vice-versa)

This happens when Steam Cloud syncs on launch before you restore a backup. Fully quit the game, disable Steam Cloud for it, copy your good save into AppData\Local\Project_Plague\Saved\<user-id>\GameSlots, launch once offline to confirm it loads, then re-enable cloud so it uploads the correct copy.

Save is missing, won't load, or shows as corrupted

Verify the game files first, then look in AppData\Local\Project_Plague\Saved\<user-id>\GameSlots for a backup or older copy (many games keep a .bak or a numbered rolling backup next to the live save). Copy that older file over the broken one while the game is closed. Never edit the save with the game running — that is the most common cause of corruption.

FAQ

Where is the Wuchang: Fallen Feathers save file on PC?

On Steam it's at C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Local\Project_Plague\Saved\<user-id>\GameSlots. Project_Plague is Wuchang's internal codename. Press Win+R, type %localappdata%, then open Project_Plague\Saved.

Why is the Wuchang save folder called Project_Plague?

Project_Plague is the development codename the studio kept in the shipped build, so the save path uses it instead of the game's marketing name.

How do I back up my Wuchang: Fallen Feathers save?

Copy your <user-id>\GameSlots folder from AppData\Local\Project_Plague\Saved to a safe location, then paste it back to restore. Close the game first.
