Where Are Overcooked! 2 Save Files Located?
Overcooked! 2 saves stars and progress per store ID folder under Team17 in LocalLow, with Steam Cloud on top.
Last updated
Overcooked! 2 is a Unity game storing progress in per-ID subfolders under LocalLow/Team17/Overcooked2: Steam IDs for Steam builds, a Saves folder with Galaxy IDs for GOG. Meta_SaveFile.save files hold the stars.
Two classic traps apply. Updates sometimes create a wrongly-named ID folder, stranding saves one level away; moving files into the correct folder fixes it. Cross-store copies read as corrupt, so keep backups per store.
Where Overcooked! 2 stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Team17\Overcooked2
Per-ID subfolders with Meta_SaveFile.save files. If progress vanishes after an update, check for a stray ID folder and merge it into the real one.
~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team17.Overcooked2
Same per-ID layout under the Unity config root on Mac. Steam Cloud syncs Windows builds; manual copies still need the game closed.
~/.config/unity3d/Team17/Overcooked2
Same contents under the Unity config root. Proton builds mirror the Windows tree inside the prefix instead.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Overcooked! 2 saves?
Copy the whole Team17 folder with the game closed. Saves bind to store IDs, so Steam files will not simply work when pasted into a GOG folder.
Can I move Overcooked! 2 saves between Steam and GOG?
Mostly no: Steam, GOG, and Epic folders use different ID schemes and the game flags mismatches corrupt. Replay or use same-store backups instead.
