Where Are Beast of Reincarnation Save Files Located?
Beast of Reincarnation keeps saves and config in LocalAppData on Steam, while Game Pass copies use an Xbox container instead.
Last updated
Beast of Reincarnation is Game Freak's action RPG released in early August 2026, and it follows the standard Unreal Engine layout on PC: everything under a Saved tree inside %LOCALAPPDATA%\BeastOfReincarnation. Saves sit in SaveGames and settings in Config, which makes a backup a two-folder copy.
The Microsoft Store and Game Pass version splits from that pattern. Its saves go into an Xbox wgs container that Explorer hides by default, and its config moves to a WinGDK subfolder. Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud both cover the game, so cross-device play is mostly automatic.
Where Beast of Reincarnation stores this, by platform
%LOCALAPPDATA%\BeastOfReincarnation\Saved\SaveGames
Steam saves. Config sits beside it in Saved\Config\Windows. Game Pass copies use Saved\Config\WinGDK and an Xbox wgs container at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Fictions.ProjectAibou_qj8vnfjar8dk2\SystemAppData\wgs instead. AppData is hidden; paste the path into the Run dialog.
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2001760/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/BeastOfReincarnation/Saved/SaveGames
Steam Deck and Linux run the Windows build through Proton for app ID 2001760, so the same Saved tree appears inside the prefix.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Beast of Reincarnation saves?
Close the game and copy the SaveGames folder from %LOCALAPPDATA%\BeastOfReincarnation\Saved. Settings live next to it in Saved\Config. Restoring means dropping the folders back before launch. Steam Cloud works, but a manual copy survives anything.
Where are Game Pass saves for Beast of Reincarnation?
Inside the Xbox container at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Fictions.ProjectAibou_qj8vnfjar8dk2\SystemAppData\wgs. The files are not plain slots, so use Xbox Cloud sync with the same account instead of copying them by hand.
Are Steam and Game Pass saves for the game compatible?
Not directly. The two store versions use different formats and locations, and there is no documented converter. Pick the copy you care about and let its own cloud service handle syncing, rather than trying to merge them.
