NIOH 3 released for PC and PlayStation 5 with great critical reception and even surpassed NIOH 2’s peak player count. While not a perfect port, as PC users are experiencing DXGI DEVICE REMOVED Fatal Error crashes, it does run well across various PC configurations. If you want to locate your NIOH 3 saves on your PC, then you’ve come to the right place. Here is the save file location for NIOH 3 on PC and Steam Deck.
NIOH 3 Save Location on Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck
| Client | Save File Location |
|---|---|
| Steam (Windows) | C:\Users\your username*\AppData\local\KoeiTecmo\NIOH3\Savedata/ |
| Steam (Linux) | [SteamLibrary-folder]/steamapps/compatdata/3681010**/pfx/ |
| Steam Deck | /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/3681010**/pfx/ |
Windows users can alternatively paste the following address in Windows Explorer address bar or Windwos Run (Win + R) and press Enter to directly access the NIOH 3 save file folder.
%LOCALAPPDATA%\KoeiTecmo\NIOH3\Savedata
Inside the Savedata folder, you’ll find another numbered folder, the numbers is your unique Steam ID. Inside that folder will be individual folders for each save.
If you want to back up your saves, then copy the “NIOH3” folder. If you want to transfer your NIOH 3 saves, then copy the Savedata folder and paste it in the same location on the PC you want to transfer your saves.
If you are using the same Steam account, then you don’t need to transfer your saves, as Steam cloud synchronization will download your saves on the new device, i.e., PC or Steam Deck.
*Replace the “your username” in the save location path with your Windows PC username.
**Steam app ID is unique to every PC and Steam Deck. To find the App ID, right-click NIOH 3 in your Steam library > properties > Updates. The App ID will be listed here.
