Where Are Reus 2 Save Files Located?
Where Reus 2 keeps saves on Windows and Linux, and which folder to copy for a full backup.
Last updated
Reus 2 uses the Unity LocalLow tree on Windows: AppData LocalLow Abbey Games Reus 2. Saves and settings live together there, which keeps backup to one copy operation.
Steam Cloud syncs this folder on desktop. On Linux through Proton the same Windows tree appears under compatdata for app 1875060. The Mac build exists, but its save path is not documented consistently, so this post covers the verified Windows and Linux locations only.
Where Reus 2 stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Abbey Games\Reus 2
Unity saves and settings in one folder. Copy the whole Reus 2 directory with the game closed. A localized sibling folder can appear on some installs; grab both.
~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1875060/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/Abbey Games/Reus 2
Same Windows relative layout under Proton. Steam Cloud copies can also appear under userdata for app 1875060. Treat backslashes as forward slashes here.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Reus 2 progress?
Close the game and copy the whole Abbey Games Reus 2 folder elsewhere with a date in the name. Restoring means dropping it back before launch. Steam Cloud will then reconcile on next start.
Why do I see two Reus 2 folders in LocalLow?
A second folder with a localized name can appear for some language installs. Back up both if you see two. The game reads the one matching your current locale.
