Hello,

I am writing to ask for help regarding my save file for Lies of P.

I previously played Lies of P through Xbox Game Pass for PC, where I made significant progress in the game. I have now purchased the game on Steam and would like to continue using my existing save instead of starting over.

Unfortunately, I am having trouble locating or recovering my save file from the Game Pass version in order to migrate it to Steam. I would like to know:

Where the Lies of P save files from Xbox Game Pass for PC are stored

Whether it is possible to transfer or convert that save to the Steam version

If there are any official limitations or supported methods for this migration

Any guidance or steps you can provide would be greatly appreciated, as I invested many hours into my original playthrough.

Thank you very much for your time and support.

    Hi duncan ovando,

    Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A!

    I understand how important it is to keep your progress after investing many hours in Lies of P. Officially, there is no way or tool provided by Microsoft to transfer saves from Game Pass to Steam.

    However, if you don't mind using unofficial methods, they do exist as there are other users who have similar queries. But please note that they are not recommended due to risk and lack of support. You can refer to these threads as examples (I will also summarize the steps below):

    Disclaimer: Above are non-Microsoft websites. The pages appear to be providing accurate, safe information. Watch out for ads that may advertise products frequently classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it. Microsoft provides no assurances and/or warranties, implied or otherwise, and is not responsible for the information you receive from the third-party linked sites or any support related to technology.  

    1. Press Win + R > enter: %LocalAppData%\Packages\Neowiz.3616725F496B_r4z3116b121tg\SystemAppData\wgs
      1. If the path doesn't open File Explorer, you might need to find Game Pass save files manually
      2. They are often located in C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Local\Packages\<GameID>\SystemAppData\wgs\
    2. In the wgs folder, open the folder with the most recent Date modified timestamp.
    3. Find your main save file (likely the largest one) > copy it to Desktop > rename SaveGame.sav
    4. Open Steam save folder, e.g. C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Local\LiesofP\Saved\SaveGames\
    5. Launch the game from Steam and select Load Game > check if the data's transferred.

    The safest approach is to start a new game on Steam. If you wish to continue with the unofficial methods, I hope the suggestions above can help you transfer your game smoothly.

    Unfortunately, the context provided does not contain specific information regarding the location of save files for Lies of P from Xbox Game Pass for PC, nor does it detail any methods for transferring or converting those save files to the Steam version of the game.

    In general, save files for games on Xbox Game Pass for PC are often stored in the user's Documents folder, typically under a path like Documents\Saved Games<Developer Name><Game Name>, but this can vary by game. You may want to check there or consult the game's documentation for more precise information.

    As for transferring save files between platforms, this is often not officially supported due to differences in how save data is managed across different platforms. It's advisable to check the game's community forums or support channels for any unofficial methods or tools that might assist with this process.

    If you have further questions or need assistance, please feel free to ask!
