Where Are Phantom Blade Zero Save Files Located?
Phantom Blade Zero keeps saves inside its Steam install folder, one folder per Steam account, while settings live in LocalAppData.
Last updated
Phantom Blade Zero is S-GAME's wuxia action RPG, built on Unreal Engine 5 and released in late October 2026. Its save layout does something most Steam games avoid: progress lives inside the install directory, not in AppData.
The game writes to ProjectPBZ\Saved\SaveGames\Steam\ followed by your Steam account ID, so two accounts on one PC get separate folders. Settings are handled differently, in %LOCALAPPDATA%\ProjectPBZ\Saved\Config\Windows. Steam Cloud is enabled, but a manual copy is still the safer backup before an uninstall.
Where Phantom Blade Zero stores this, by platform
<SteamLibrary>\steamapps\common\Phantom Blade Zero\ProjectPBZ\Saved\SaveGames\Steam\<SteamID>
The <SteamID> folder is a Steam account ID, usually a long number, not the Windows user. Because this sits inside the install directory, uninstalling the game can take the saves with it. Right-click the game in Steam, then Manage > Browse local files, to reach the folder without typing the path.
Frequently asked questions
Where are Phantom Blade Zero save files?
In <SteamLibrary>\steamapps\common\Phantom Blade Zero\ProjectPBZ\Saved\SaveGames\Steam\<SteamID>. The last folder is your Steam account ID, so the full path looks different for each account.
Where are the graphics settings stored?
In %LOCALAPPDATA%\ProjectPBZ\Saved\Config\Windows. That is separate from the save folder, so copying saves alone will not carry your settings to another PC.
Does Steam Cloud back up Phantom Blade Zero?
Yes. Steam Cloud is enabled for the game. Even so, the saves sit inside the install directory, so keep a manual copy before uninstalling or moving the Steam library.
Why is the save folder called ProjectPBZ?
It is the internal project name S-GAME used during development. Unreal Engine games often keep that name in their data paths after the public title has changed.
