Where Are Vampire Crawlers Save Files Located?
Vampire Crawlers saves runs in LocalLow under Nosebleed Interactive, one .save file per slot, with Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud both covering it.
Last updated
The Vampire Survivors spin-off saves more conventionally than its parent. Everything sits in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Nosebleed Interactive\Vampire Crawlers\Save, with a .save file per slot plus the meta progression the game tracks between runs.
Because the game shipped on Steam, the Microsoft Store, and Game Pass, the same folder serves all three versions. The catch is that Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud both claim it, so playing the same account in two places can produce a version conflict. Pick one platform as home base and treat the other as a visitor.
Where Vampire Crawlers stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Nosebleed Interactive\Vampire Crawlers\Save
Each .save file is one slot. Unlocks, run records, and meta progression live here too. Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud both sync this folder, which is what causes occasional version prompts.
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/3265700/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/Nosebleed Interactive/Vampire Crawlers/Save
Proton prefix for app ID 3265700. Steam Deck saves show up here in the same layout, and the game runs comfortably on the Deck.
Frequently asked questions
Can I copy a Vampire Crawlers save between Steam and Game Pass?
Yes, the save files are not platform-locked. Close the game, copy the .save files into the same LocalLow folder for the other version, and launch it. Let one platform finish syncing first or the two clouds will fight over which file is newer.
Why did my Vampire Crawlers progress roll back after playing on another device?
Two cloud services, one folder. If Steam and Xbox hold different copies, whichever syncs last wins, and it can be the older one. Pick the platform you play most and only launch the other when you are done playing there.
Does Vampire Crawlers keep backups of my runs?
No rotation, just the slot files. If a run matters, copy the Save folder somewhere else before a big patch. The whole folder is a few megabytes, so the copy costs nothing and saves a lot of irritation.
