Where Are Deathloop Save Files Located?
Where Deathloop keeps saves per Steam ID on PC, the Store wgs variant, and Steam-to-Game-Pass transfer notes.
Last updated
Deathloop saves in the Windows Saved Games folder under an Arkane Studios tree, split per Steam ID with SLOT folders holding save.dloop pairs. Microsoft Store builds instead use the packages wgs tree with numeric names. Bethesda documents the base path officially.
Steam-to-Store transfers need header surgery in a binary-safe editor plus renames, documented by the community. Linux plays through Proton with the mirrored layout. Keep manual copies; cloud sync restores mistakes as faithfully as progress.
Where Deathloop stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Arkane Studios\Deathloop\base\savegame
Per-Steam-ID SLOT folders with save.dloop pairs inside. Store builds use the packages wgs tree with numeric names instead. Transfers between them need byte edits plus renames. Proton mirrors this on Linux.
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1252330/pfx
Proton prefix mirroring the Saved Games tree inside. Same SLOT layout as Windows. Useful for Deck-to-desktop copies with tools like KDE Connect.
Frequently asked questions
how do I back up Deathloop saves
Copy the SLOT folder with save.dloop and title.data to external storage with the game closed. Store builds need the wgs tree instead. Cloud copies help but manual backups survive account mixups.
how do I move Steam saves to Game Pass
Strip the Steam header bytes from both files with a binary-safe editor, then rename to the Store numeric names. Play one Store session first so target files exist. Xbox Cloud takes over afterward for that copy.
does the Linux path differ
Yes through Proton compatdata mirroring the Saved Games tree. Continue inside pfx to the Arkane path. The same SLOT layout applies, so Windows guides transfer directly.
