Where Are Styx: Shards of Darkness Save Files Located?

The Shards of Darkness save folder on PC, in Unreal layout under a Styx2 folder.

Last updated

The goblin's second heist saves in Local AppData under the Styx2 folder, with standard Unreal SaveGames below. The original Master of Shadows used a Styx folder beside it, so the two thefts never meet on disk.

Config sits in a WindowsNoEditor folder beside the shadows. Copy SaveGames before the prison break demands perfection.

Where Styx: Shards of Darkness stores this, by platform

Windows
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Styx2\Saved\SaveGames

Local AppData under the sequel name Styx2, not Styx. Config is beside saves under Saved\Config. The original kept a separate Styx tree.

Frequently asked questions

Do Master of Shadows and Shards of Darkness share saves?

No. The original uses Styx and the sequel uses Styx2. Each game reads only its own folder.

How do I back up Shards of Darkness?

Copy the SaveGames folder while the game is closed. Every amber clone and stolen scepter travels inside it.
