Where Are Pentiment Saves Located?
Pentiment Saved Games folder with historical RPG slots on PC.
Last updated
Pentiment follows the Obsidian convention with saves in the Windows Saved Games folder, one directory per manuscript. Choices across the decades write into the same slots.
Time jumps never branch the files, so a single backup covers young and old Andreas alike. Copy the folder before the final act to revisit endings.
Where Pentiment stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Pentiment
Slots sit inside with settings nearby per Obsidian support. The Microsoft Store build manages saves through Xbox Cloud instead of browsable files. Copy the folder with the game closed.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Pentiment saves?
Copy the full Pentiment folder from Saved Games. Paste it back to restore every manuscript slot.
Do Pentiment saves sync with Steam Cloud?
Keep it enabled so local and cloud copies agree. The Store version syncs through Xbox Cloud instead.
