Where Are Megabonk Save Files Located?

Megabonk's progression.json location on Windows, macOS and Linux, including the Steam ID subfolder.

Last updated

Megabonk stores runs and unlocks as progression.json and stats.json inside a Saves/CloudDir folder, nested once more under your numeric Steam ID. That extra level catches people out when they open CloudDir and find only numbered folders.

The files are AES encrypted, so hand editing means decrypting first with a community tool and re-encrypting after. For a plain backup or PC move, a straight folder copy is enough and far safer.

Where Megabonk stores this, by platform

Windows
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Ved\Megabonk\Saves\CloudDir\[SteamID]

[SteamID] is your numeric Steam account folder. Back up progression.json and stats.json together with Steam Cloud enabled or disabled consistently.

macOS
~/Library/Application Support/Ved/Megabonk/Saves/CloudDir/[SteamID]

Same CloudDir plus Steam ID structure as Windows. Use Go to Folder in Finder to reach the hidden Library path.

Linux
~/.config/unity3d/Ved/Megabonk/Saves/CloudDir/[SteamID]

Unity on Linux redirects LocalLow to the unity3d config tree. The Saves/CloudDir/[SteamID] tail below it is identical.

Frequently asked questions

Can I edit Megabonk progression.json by hand?

Only after decrypting it. The game encrypts both JSON files, so direct edits corrupt the save. Use a save decryptor tool and keep an unedited backup first.

I lost my save. Is there any recovery?

Yes. Megabonk has Settings > Other > Recover Save, which rebuilds unlocks from your Steam achievements. It restores achievement-bound progress but not shop silver.
