Deltarune Save File Location

Deltarune offers players another opportunity to delve into the imaginative world created by Toby Fox, exploring a fresh narrative within the realm of the Underworld. Packed with secrets to discover and multiple paths to navigate each situation, you might find yourself considering erasing or at least moving your save file to embark on a new journey with a different approach. This is largely due to the unique way the game manages its saving mechanism.

In this guide, I’ll show you the location of where to save your Deltarune game progress on a PC, and provide instructions for saving your data effectively during gameplay.

Where to Find Deltarune Save File Location

The Windows ‘Run’ Command Is Your Friend

  • Deltarune’s save file is located in the following file path on PC: C:Users(your name)AppDataLocalDELTARUNE
  • For those playing on macOS, the save file is located in: $HOME/Library/Application Support/com.tobyfox.deltarune/
  • If you’re playing Deltarune on Linux, players have reported that their save file could be found at the following file path: ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1690940/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/DELTARUNE/

In this particular game I played through Steam, my save file was kept within the App DataLocal folder, specifically named as filech2_0. If you have more than one save file, it’s essential to note that filech2_1 represents the second save in the game, while filech2_2 stands for the third save, and so forth.

Once you locate this particular file, you have two options: either delete it if you wish to discard your progress, or transfer it to a different drive or system if you want to preserve your game save for Chapters 3, 4, and beyond. A crucial point to keep in mind when moving your save file to a new system is to ensure that you restore it to the exact same location (file path). Placing it anywhere on your computer won’t achieve the desired result.

The individual who posted the save file location on Steam cautioned that the file path could vary based on how you’ve customized Proton in your system setup.

How to Save in Deltarune

Another Save Point System

In Deltarune, the way you save your progress resembles how it works in Undertale. You will come across save points scattered throughout the game, which appear as white crosses with a light blue border. These save points not only let you save your game but also restore your party’s health. In Chapter 2, they offer additional features like access to the Recruits and Storage menus as well.

Regrettably, Deltarune lacks an autosave feature, meaning it’s essential to utilize the save points when they appear in the game. Deltarune‘s intricate plot can be quite bewildering, making it more challenging for those unfamiliar with Undertale. Not being able to save at will can become aggravating for players who wish to take a break but haven’t encountered another save point in some time.

As a gamer, I absolutely appreciate the convenience of having numerous save points in this game. It allows me to revisit earlier stages to uncover hidden bosses or paths, or even try out unique gaming experiences like a pacifist playthrough or exploring the strange route for an entirely new experience!
