Where Are Avowed Save Files Located?
Avowed files local saves in a Saved Games folder, with an Xbox cloud toggle deciding whether they land there.
Last updated
Obsidian's support page gives this one directly. Local saves live in Saved Games under an Avowed folder, shared across the PC storefronts that use local files.
The wrinkle is Xbox cloud saves overriding the local path when enabled. The toggle dance of loading, disabling, and saving forces a local copy for backup purposes. Xbox app builds skip the dance entirely and remain cloud managed.
Where Avowed stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Avowed
Shared by Steam and Battle.net builds. Toggle off Xbox cloud saves and save once to force a fresh local copy here.
Frequently asked questions
How do I force a local save copy?
Load a save, toggle off Use Xbox Saves in settings, and save again. That writes the local copy into Saved Games\Avowed. Toggle back on afterward. The steps fail on the Xbox app version, which stays cloud bound.
Do Steam and Battle.net share saves?
Steam and Battle.net share the local folder, so nothing moves between them. The Xbox app version keeps its own cloud path. Local files only matter for backups and troubleshooting.
