Where Are Save Files Located?
The location of Abyssus save files depends on your computer’s system. Below are the most common places to look.
Windows
On Windows, save files are usually in a folder tied to your user account.
- Location:
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Abyssus\Saved
- How to Find:
- Open File Explorer.
- Type
%appdata%
in the address bar and press Enter. - Go up one folder to find the
AppData
folder, then openLocal
. - Look for the
Abyssus
folder, then open theSaved
folder inside.
- What to Look For: You’ll see files like
GameProgress.sav
or folders with numbers. These hold your progress, including weapons like the Fish Deity and Logbook data.
Mac
On a Mac, save files are in a hidden folder.
- Location:
~/Library/Application Support/Abyssus/Saved
- How to Find:
- Open Finder.
- Click “Go” in the menu bar, then “Go to Folder.”
- Type
~/Library/Application Support/Abyssus/Saved
and click Go.
- What to Look For: Look for files like
GameProgress.sav
or similar. These store your unlocks and game history.
Steam Cloud
If you’re using Steam and have Steam Cloud enabled, your save files might also be stored online.
- How to Check:
- Open Steam, go to your Library, and right-click Abyssus.
- Choose “Properties,” then look for the “Steam Cloud” option.
- If it’s on, your saves are backed up online and sync to your game.
- Note: If Steam Cloud is active, local save files might not always update. Try disabling Cloud in Steam settings if you have issues.
Backing Up Save Files
To keep your progress safe:
- Copy the entire
Saved
folder to a safe place, like a USB drive or another folder. - Name the backup with the date, like
Abyssus_Backup_2025-08-18
. - If something goes wrong, copy the backup folder back to the original location.

Fixing Save File Issues
If your game isn’t saving progress (e.g., missing the Aquatic Weapon or Logbook entries):
- Check Folder Access: Make sure your computer allows Abyssus to write to the save folder. On Windows, right-click the
Abyssus
folder, choose “Properties,” and ensure you have full permissions. - Turn Off Steam Cloud: If saves aren’t syncing, disable Steam Cloud in Steam settings, delete the local
Saved
folder, and restart the game to create a new one. - Re-verify Game Files: In Steam, right-click Abyssus, select “Properties,” go to “Installed Files,” and click “Verify integrity of game files” to fix missing or broken files.
- Check the Logbook: The in-game Logbook in the Artefact Room can show if your progress is saving correctly.
Tips for Success
- Back Up Regularly: Save a copy of your files after big unlocks, like the Brine Revolver or Cabinet of Curiosities.
- Don’t Edit Files: Changing save files manually can break your game, so only copy or move them.
- Check Storage Space: Make sure your computer has enough free space for saves, especially if you play a lot.
- Explore the Lobby: If progress isn’t saving, check the lobby’s Artefact Room to ensure you’re interacting with the Logbook properly.
Final Note
Finding and managing your Abyssus save files is easy once you know where to look. Whether you’re on Windows, Mac, or using Steam Cloud, keep your files backed up to protect your progress. If something goes wrong, use the Logbook and these steps to get back to exploring the depths without losing your hard-earned rewards!
