Where Are Persona 5 Royal Save Files Located?
P5R's SEGA save folder with Steam ID layer, Game Pass variant, and Linux prefix path.
Last updated
Persona 5 Royal saves into a SEGA/P5R tree in Roaming AppData, nested by store and then by Steam ID. The .DAT files below savedata hold slots plus system data, which must travel together or the game flags a mismatch.
Game Pass builds use a Packages wgs container instead of the Steam tree. Steam and Game Pass saves do not interchange, so pick the path that matches your store.
Where Persona 5 Royal stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\SEGA\P5R\Steam\[SteamID]\savedata
[SteamID] is your 64 bit numeric folder. Copy the whole savedata directory, slots plus system data. Game Pass instead uses Local/Packages/SEGAofAmericaInc.../SystemAppData/wgs.
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1687950/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/SEGA/P5R/Steam/[SteamID]/savedata
Proton prefix for AppID 1687950. Let the game create a save once so the tree exists, then overwrite with your migrated files.
Frequently asked questions
Can I move a 100 percent save into my game?
Yes, with matching store builds. Drop the downloaded savedata contents into your own Steam ID folder with the game closed, keeping a backup of yours first.
Why does the game warn about mismatched data?
Slots and system data were copied separately. Always move the full savedata folder as a set so slot files and system records agree.
