Where Are Vampire Survivors Save Files Located?

Vampire Survivors SaveData paths on Windows, macOS and Linux, old versus new locations, and the mobile transfer trick.

Last updated

Vampire Survivors moved save locations across updates, which is why guides disagree. Current Steam builds sync through userdata/1794680/remote. Older installs used Roaming/Vampire_Survivors/saves with a SaveData.sav file. Check the userdata path first.

Mac and Linux follow their own app data trees with the same filenames. Mobile uses SaveDataUnity.sav under the app sandbox, which makes PC to phone transfers a rename job. Always copy with the game closed and Cloud paused. The checksum inside the file punishes hand edits, so use a dedicated editor tool instead.

Where Vampire Survivors stores this, by platform

Windows
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[SteamID]\1794680\remote

Current location with a SaveData file inside. Older saves sit at %appdata%\Vampire_Survivors\saves\SaveData.sav. Copy whichever tree has the newer timestamp.

macOS
~/Library/Application Support/Vampire_Survivors_Data/SaveData.sav

Use Go > Go to Folder in Finder. Back up the whole Vampire_Survivors_Data folder so settings travel with unlocks.

Linux
~/.config/Vampire_Survivors_Data/SaveData.sav

Native builds use this path. Proton installs mirror the Windows userdata tree under compatdata/1794680 instead, so check there second.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move a PC save to Android?

Copy the PC SaveData file to Android/data/com.poncle.vampiresurvivors/files and rename it SaveDataUnity.sav with the game closed. Keep a spare copy until unlocks load correctly.

Why do two guides list different Windows paths?

The game migrated from Roaming saves to Steam userdata sync. The userdata/1794680/remote tree is current. Migrate by launching once updated, then retire the old folder.
