Where Does Hunt: Showdown 1896 Store Config and Progress?
Hunt Showdown 1896 config in the install user folder with attributes.xml, and why hunter progress is server-side.
Last updated
Hunt: Showdown 1896 tracks hunters, bloodline rank and unlocks on Crytek servers, so no local file carries your progress between PCs. Logging into the same Steam account restores everything.
What lives on disk is CryEngine config inside the install folder: graphics settings, keybinds and loadout preferences in attributes.xml. That file is the one to back up before tweaking or reinstalling.
Where Hunt: Showdown 1896 stores this, by platform
<SteamLibrary>\steamapps\common\Hunt Showdown 1896\user
Settings live at user\Profiles\default\attributes.xml under this folder. Replace <SteamLibrary> with your library path, or right-click the game in Steam and Browse Local Files. Copy attributes.xml with the game closed to preserve keybinds and graphics tweaks. Deleting it resets settings without touching your hunters, since those are server-side.
Frequently asked questions
Can I transfer Hunt: Showdown progress to a new PC?
Yes, by logging into the same Steam account. Hunters and unlocks sync from Crytek servers, so only local settings need copying.
How do I reset Hunt: Showdown graphics settings?
Delete attributes.xml in the user\Profiles\default folder with the game closed. The game regenerates defaults on next launch.
