Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 saves live in Saved Games profiles on PC, with hardcore and standard modes in separate profile folders.
Last updated
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 keeps the first game save habits. Progress sits in the Windows Saved Games folder under a KingdomComeDeliverance2 tree, split into profiles per run. Each profile holds its slots, and the engine trims old autosaves on its own schedule.
CryEngine config sits nearby but apart from slots. Steam Cloud covers the profiles, which keeps the in-game saves resilient until mods enter the picture. Modded runs should be backed up before every mod change, since script mods can invalidate slots without warning.

Profiles per run with slots inside. Copy whole profiles with the game closed. Steam Cloud syncs them; pause Cloud for manual restores.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up KCD2 saves?
Copy the whole profiles folder with the game closed. Standard and hardcore runs use separate profile IDs, so moving one profile moves that run only. Restore with Cloud paused, launch once, then re-enable sync.
When does KCD2 actually save?
Sleep, save, and keep Savior Schnapps on hand: the game saves on quest milestones, sleep, and manual potions. Hardcore disables most autosaves, so manual discipline decides whether a crash costs minutes or hours.
