Nioh 3 has officially launched on PC and PS5, quickly exceeding Nioh 2’s peak player count shortly after its release. The PC version offers significant improvements over titles like Rise of the Ronin and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, providing extensive customization options.
PC players looking to find their local game progress can use the following information to locate Nioh 3’s save files.
Nioh 3 Save File Location
For the Steam version of Nioh 3, save files are typically found at the following path:
C:\Users\ALI\AppData\Local\KoeiTecmo\NIOH3\Savedata\[Steam Numeric ID]
Unlike earlier KOEI TECMO games that stored save data in the Windows Documents folder, Nioh 3 utilizes the AppData folder. Within the Savedata directory, a subfolder corresponding to your unique Steam numeric ID contains individual save game folders. It is advisable to back up or relocate the entire NIOH3 folder for secure storage.
This save data location can also be accessed by typing the following address into Windows Explorer or the Windows Run dialog:
%USERPROFILE%/AppData/Local/KoeiTecmo/NIOH3/Savedata
Does Nioh 3 Have Multiple Save Slots?
Nioh 3 supports multiple save slots, similar to its predecessors. This allows players to create distinct characters and manage separate game progress and campaigns.
Nioh 3 Steam Features
Nioh 3 includes Steam Cloud support, enabling players to access their game progress across various devices by logging into their Steam account. The Steam client also offers these exclusive features:
- Steam Family Sharing: Owners of Nioh 3 can share access with members of their Steam family.
- Steam Input: Beyond native controller support, Steam Input facilitates the use of third-party controllers.
- Steam Leaderboards and Stats
- Steam Trading Cards: Playing Nioh 3 yields trading card drops, which contribute to badge progression and can be traded or sold.
Nioh 3 is not Steam Deck verified and exhibits poor performance on the device. Purchasing the game specifically for Steam Deck play is not recommended.
