Final Fantasy XVI is finally free from the shackles of the PS5 and is now available on PC. The port is a mixed bag for the most part, but it has some basic features like cloud save support and proper controller support. If you want to access your local progress on PC, here is the Final Fantasy XVI save file location.

Final Fantasy XVI Save File Location

The save files for Final Fantasy XVI are available in the following location on PC.

Steam:

C:/Users/[USERNAME]/My Documents/My Games/FINAL FANTASY XVI/Steam/[STEAM ID]

Epic Games Store:

C:/Users/[USERNAME]/My Documents/My Games/FINAL FANTASY XVI/EOS/

In this folder, you’ll find all the save data. We recommend backing up the entire FINAL FANTASY XVI (or Steam) folder inside My Games. All recent Final Fantasy titles had similar folders in the My Games folder as well.

Faster Navigation

To quickly navigate to the same location, you can use Windows Run. You can bring up Run by pressing the Windows and R keys together.

Enter the following address, which will take you directly to your save files.

%USERPROFILE%/My Documents/My Games/FINAL FANTASY XVI/

Does Final Fantasy XVI have Steam Cloud Support?

Yes, Final Fantasy XVI has Steam Cloud support, which means you can share progress across multiple devices. We recommend keeping this setting enabled for the title, as the local files aren’t that large to begin with, and it’s nice to have your progress stored online as well.

While it isn’t the best experience on the Steam Deck, it still works in some capacity, and you can technically play it, which is where the Steam Cloud support comes in handy.

To further improve your PC experience, we recommend unlocking the 30 FPS cutscenes cap in Final Fantasy XVI as well and removing the black bars if you’re an ultrawide user.
