Where Are Night of the Dead Save Files Located?

Night of the Dead keeps saves and rolling backups under Local AppData in an LF folder, plus Steam Cloud.

Last updated

This Unreal survival game keeps saves under an LF folder inside Local AppData, away from Roaming and Documents. The SaveGames folder holds live worlds, with each world stored as its own set. Beside it sits SaveGamesBackup, which rotates the last autos, quick saves and manual saves for recovery when a world fails to load.

Steam Cloud mirrors the same data under the userdata entry for the game, while local LF files stay authoritative during play. Copy the whole SaveGames folder only with the game closed, and take the backup folder with it for full coverage. After offline play, launch online once and let Steam reconcile before hand copying between machines.
