So, where do these sneaky save files hide, you ask? Well, it depends on whether you’re team Windows, MacOS, or Steam. But no worries, I’ll break it down for each. Just follow these easy steps and you’ll be at XP city in no time!

For Windows Users:

1. Hit Win+R (like a boss) to bring up the Run window.
2. Type “%localappdata%” (no quotes, please) and smack that Enter key. Welcome to the Local App Data folder!
3. Now, strut over to “Larian Studios\Baldur’s Gate 3\PlayerProfiles\Public\Savegames\Story“. Bam! Your save files await.

For MacOS Users:

1. Fire up Finder and hit the “Go” menu like you mean it.
2. Choose “Go to Folder” from the dropdown (fancy, huh?).
3. Type in “$HOME/Documents/Larian Studios/Baldur’s Gate 3/PlayerProfiles/Public/Savegames/Story” and press Enter. Boom! There’s your treasure.

For Steam Users:

1. Open up Steam and head to your library, like the pro gamer you are.
2. Right-click on “Baldur’s Gate 3” and select “Manage” then “Browse local files“. You’re almost there!
3. Navigate to “/userdata//1086940/remote/_SAVE_Public/Savegames“. Victory! You’ve found your saves.

Remember, it’s super smart to back up your BG3 saves to external storage. Don’t want any dragon (or bug) eating your progress, right? And if you’re jumping between platforms, double-check those cloud saves. Got a problem? These save files might just be your hero in shining armor.

There you go! Follow these steps, and you’ll be the master of your BG3 save files. Game on, friends! 🎮
