Where Are DRAGON BALL FighterZ Save Files Located?
DBFZ saves to a DBFighterZ folder in LocalAppData, with SYSTEM.sav holding system progress.
Last updated
DRAGON BALL FighterZ stores saves in %LOCALAPPDATA%\DBFighterZ\Saved\SaveGames. The headline file is SYSTEM.sav (hidden by default), which holds system progress and unlocks. It is an Unreal Engine layout with Bandai's folder naming.
SYSTEM.sav is also the classic corruption point. When the game reports a system save failure, that file is the culprit, and the community fix is deleting it under specific conditions. Copy the whole SaveGames folder before touching anything; there is no in-game export.
Where DRAGON BALL FighterZ stores this, by platform
%LOCALAPPDATA%\DBFighterZ\Saved\SaveGames
SYSTEM.sav plus slot files. Hidden files must be visible in Explorer. Back up the folder before reinstalls; cloud coverage has gaps for this title.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[SteamID3]\678950
Cloud mirror for App ID 678950. Restore local files with Steam closed to stop the cloud copy from winning.
Frequently asked questions
The game says it failed to save system data. How do I fix it?
Delete SYSTEM.sav with the game closed for a clean reset, or with the game open followed by any save-triggering action to rebuild it while keeping items. Back the file up first either way; a wrong guess costs the whole profile.
Does DBFZ use Steam Cloud for saves?
Partially. Cloud covers some data but historically not the save files players expected, which burned people who uninstalled assuming sync had them. Keep your own copy of the SaveGames folder regardless of cloud status.
