Where Are Grounded 2 Save Files Located?
Grounded 2 Steam saves live in Saved Games\Grounded2 on Windows, while the Xbox app version keeps them where you cannot browse.
Last updated
The Steam version of Grounded 2 stores saves in your Windows Saved Games folder, one numbered subfolder per profile. Copying the whole Grounded2 folder backs up every world at once, which beats fishing out individual files.
The Xbox and PC Game Pass build is a different story. Like the first game, its saves are managed by the Xbox platform and are not browsable, so there is no equivalent folder to copy. Steam players who opted into cloud saves should still keep a local copy before reinstalling.
Where Grounded 2 stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Grounded2
Steam version. Each profile gets a numbered subfolder with its worlds inside. Back up the entire Grounded2 folder. Obsidian's own support page names this path.
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Augusta\Saved
Xbox app and PC Game Pass builds write here when local saves exist at all. Much of the time these saves are platform managed and not directly usable, so treat this folder as a fallback, not a backup source.
Frequently asked questions
how do i back up my grounded 2 saves on steam
Copy the whole %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Grounded2 folder somewhere safe, with the game closed. Each numbered subfolder inside is one profile, so restoring means pasting the folder back to the same place.
why is there no grounded2 folder in saved games
You are probably on the Xbox app or Game Pass version, which does not use that folder. Its saves are managed by the Xbox platform. The Continue Game menu can export a save toward the Steam version instead.
where is the grounded 2 config file
Graphics and input settings sit with the local app data rather than beside the saves. Check %LOCALAPPDATA%\Augusta for config folders. Most players are better off changing settings in game, since hand edited values get overwritten.
