Last verified: 2026-09-29

Save file location (Windows (Steam)): ...\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved\SaveGames

Quick answer: On PC (Steam), Black Myth: Wukong saves are in ...\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved\SaveGames (inside the install folder). On PS5 the save is sealed — back it up via PS Plus cloud or USB.

Here's exactly where Black Myth: Wukong keeps your saves on PC, how to open the folder inside the game's install directory, and how to back them up.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam)
...\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved\SaveGames

The saves live inside the game's install folder: <SteamLibrary>\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved\SaveGames\<numeric ID>\ . The game also keeps rolling backups in b1\Saved\SaveGamesBackup\01Realtimebackup.

PlayStation 5 / PS4
Settings > Saved Data and Game/App Settings > Saved Data

Console saves are sealed and can't be copied as raw files. Back them up to PS Plus cloud or a USB drive from this menu.

Cloud saves

On PC, Black Myth: Wukong uses Steam Cloud, so your saves sync across machines with the same Steam account. Because the local copy sits in the install folder, verify game files carefully — a reinstall can wipe local saves if Cloud is off.

Cloud save conflict & platform recovery

Black Myth: Wukong keeps its saves INSIDE the Steam install folder, so a "Verify integrity of game files" or a reinstall can wipe the local copy if Steam Cloud is off — and if Cloud is on, an older cloud copy can overwrite your real progress on next launch. The game does keep rolling backups in SaveGamesBackup, which most templated guides never mention.

  1. Close the game fully before copying anything so Steam Cloud does not sync mid-copy.
  2. Back up the live saves: browse to <SteamLibrary>\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved\SaveGames\<numeric ID> and copy the whole folder somewhere OUTSIDE the install directory.
  3. If a save looks reverted, check the built-in backups: b1\Saved\SaveGamesBackup\01Realtimebackup holds recent auto-copies — sort by modified date to find the newest good one.
  4. Exact backup command (Windows CMD): robocopy "%STEAMLIBRARY%\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\WukongSaveBackup" SaveGames SaveGamesBackup /E (replace %STEAMLIBRARY% with your actual library path, e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam).
  5. To keep your local copy after a conflict, disable Steam Cloud for the game (Properties > General) before launching, confirm the correct save loads, then re-enable Cloud so the good copy uploads.
  6. PS5 saves are sealed — back them up to PS Plus cloud or USB from Settings > Saved Data; they cannot be copied as raw files or merged with the PC copy.
Back up first (Windows) — copy & run

Black Myth: Wukong stores saves INSIDE the install folder, so 'Verify integrity of game files' or a reinstall can delete them. Back them up before any fix:

robocopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1\Saved\SaveGames" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Wukong-Save-Backup" /E

Adjust the drive/path if Steam is installed elsewhere. Because the save lives in the install directory, always copy it out BEFORE verifying files or moving the library.

How to open the save folder

  4. Rolling backups are in b1 > Saved > SaveGamesBackup > 01Realtimebackup.
  5. Copy the whole SaveGames folder somewhere safe before editing, modding, or moving PCs.

Save problems & fixes

Black Myth: Wukong save won’t load or says it’s corrupt

Because the save sits in the install folder, verifying files can overwrite it — first copy b1\Saved\SaveGames somewhere safe, THEN verify integrity on Steam. Restore your backup afterward if the verify replaces the save with an older cloud copy.

My Black Myth: Wukong save is missing or the folder is empty

The save lives under the game’s install path (b1\Saved\SaveGames), not %APPDATA% or Documents — many guides get this wrong. If SaveGames is empty, Steam Cloud may not have synced; stay online and wait, or re-check after a full game restart.

Black Myth: Wukong progress rolled back after a cloud conflict

When Steam (or the console) reports a save conflict, always keep the version with the LATER timestamp — picking the older cloud copy overwrites newer progress and is the #1 cause of “lost hours.” If unsure, disable cloud sync, back up the local folder first, then re-enable it and let it sync.
