Where Are Hades Save Files Located?
Hades save folder on Windows and Mac, with Profile1.sav recovery from .bak and Temp files.
Last updated
Hades keeps saves as Profile1.sav (plus per slot siblings) in a Saved Games folder on Windows and under Supergiant Games on Mac. Settings live alongside as .sjson files.
Corrupt saves are often recoverable. The folder keeps Temp and .bak copies of recent runs, and Supergiant documents renaming the newest one back to Profile1.sav.
Where Hades stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Saved Games\Hades
Main save is Profile1.sav. Sort by Date modified to find Profile1_Temp.sav or .bak files for recovery. Back up the folder before renaming anything.
~/Library/Application Support/Supergiant Games/Hades
Same file layout as Windows. In Finder use Go > Go to Folder, since Library is hidden.
Frequently asked questions
How do I recover a lost Hades run?
Rename Profile1.sav aside, then rename the newest Temp or .bak file to Profile1.sav and check the in game Play menu. Repeat with the next newest if the first fails.
What is Profile1.sjson for?
Settings, key bindings and toggles, not run progress. Deleting it resets options to defaults without touching saves.
