Where Are Sanctum 2 Save Files Located?

Sanctum 2 uses the UE3 Documents tree with SaveData plus Config, a Linux XDG mirror, and Steam userdata beside them.

Last updated

Sanctum 2 is Unreal Engine 3 with the classic Documents layout. A Sanctum2 folder holds a SanctumGame tree with SaveData for progress and Config for settings. Linux builds mirror it under XDG.

Mouse smoothing settings hide inside the save profile itself, which surprises tweakers hunting INIs. Copy the whole Documents tree for moves so progress and config travel together. Steam userdata carries the same progress per account for hands off safety.
