Where Are The Outer Worlds Save Files Located?
The Outer Worlds files saves in Saved Games with one folder per storefront, and configs hide in an Indiana folder.
Last updated
Obsidian's spacers choice splits by storefront and tells you nothing. Steam and Epic share a Saved Games folder under the game name. Microsoft Store and Game Pass builds use a sibling folder with Windows 10 in the name.
Achievement tracking rides in an Achievement.dat beside the save folders, which transfer guides always include. The engine config lives apart under an Indiana directory, a codename leftover that marks every Unreal based Obsidian PC port.
Where The Outer Worlds stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\The Outer Worlds
Autosaves, quicksaves, and Achievement.dat share the profile folders. Store builds use a The Outer Worlds Windows 10 sibling folder instead.
Frequently asked questions
Can I move saves between Steam and Game Pass?
Copy the profile folders across roots with the game closed, keeping the inner structure exact. Steam and Epic share one root so nothing moves between them. Store builds need conversion guides rather than plain copies.
Where are the graphics config files?
Unreal config files at ...\Indiana\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor hold the tunables. Back up before editing: the game regenerates defaults happily, which erases undocumented tweaks without asking.
