Hades stores its save files at %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Saved Games\Hades on Windows. Checkpoint64 already knows this folder — it backs it up automatically and keeps every version, so a corrupted or overwritten save is one click from restored.
Where Hades saves are stored
- Windows —
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Saved Games\Hades - macOS —
~/Library/Application Support/Supergiant Games/Hades
The save data here is .sav / .bak files — back up the folder as a set, not single files, so a restore always keeps them consistent.
How to open the save folder
- Windows — press Win+R, paste
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Saved Games\Hades, and press Enter. - macOS — in Finder press Cmd+Shift+G (Go to Folder) and paste
~/Library/Application Support/Supergiant Games/Hades.
Backing up Hades saves automatically
- Install Checkpoint64 (free) and pick Hades — the save path above is already preset.
- Auto-backup watches the folder and uploads a new version whenever it changes, keeping full history.
- Restore any version in one click if a save corrupts, gets overwritten, or a mod breaks it.
