First, find your PC Gamepass save files

Your PC Game Pass save files are in this folder, there should be 5 folders and a containers.index file. You may need to tick "Hidden items" in your View bar if you can't see the AppData folder.

C:\Users\[Your username]\AppData\Local\Packages\Neowiz.3616725F496B_r4z3116tdh636\SystemAppData\wgs\ [Your unique ID]00000000000000000000000000007B71E406

Copy all 5 folders inside this folder, and save this to a new folder on your Desktop. I called mine "Lies of P save".

Now, the Steam part

Open Lies of P on Steam once, that will let the game create a save file. Now you will be able to find your Saved Games folder for Lies of P on Steam, right here:

Steam\steamapps\common\Lies of P\LiesofP\Saved\SaveGames\[your unique ID]

There should be six files here:

Account_1
Account_2
OptionsSlot
SaveData-1_Character_1
SaveData-1_Character_2
steam_autocloud.vdf

Time to rename, drag, and drop

(Turn off cloud saves. And for convenience, keep the "SaveGames" window with Steam's Lies of P open, the one with the six files.)

Go to your Desktop, open the folder you created earlier which contains the copy of your PC Game Pass save files (the new folder with 5 folders and a containers.index file).

1. From top to bottom, open the five folders until you find a file that is around 14kb. Mine was 21kb right before NG+. Rename it Account_1.sav. and drag it into the "SaveGames" folder and choose to replace the existing file.

2. Continue through the five folders until you find the next 14kb file (again, mine was 21kb). Rename it Account_2.sav. and drag it into the "SaveGames" folder and choose to replace the existing file.

3. Look for the smallest file you can find in the folders and rename it: OptionSlot.sav. Drag it into the "SaveGames" folder and choose to replace the existing file.

4. Look for the largest file and rename it: SaveData-1_Character_1.sav. Drag it into the "SaveGames" folder and choose to replace the existing file.

Open Lies of P on Steam

Et voilà. As the logos load, you should be hearing the sweet sound of your existing achievements being registered on Steam.

Press continue and you should pick up right where you left off on PC Game Pass.

Special thanks

I am not the best at computers, but I love the game so much I needed to figure out a way to carry over my progress on Steam. Unfortunately, the guides out there are not very detailed, so it took me a while to figure out how to do what these other more experienced users were suggesting.

As they are the ones who first figured how to transfer progression out, I would like to highlight and thank u/oki_dingo, RaveKot on Steam, and also u/AliceVioletMajere for first confirming that Steam achievements do transfer over.

No thanks needed, just support and enjoy this wonderful game with me that Neowiz has created. God bless, and parry Simon for me when you see him.

Thnx! It worked for me.
After loading my (old) save game and closing the game correctly, i turned on Steam cloud saves again.

@ ExcoorS Same thing for me, this guide is pretty much useless.

Hi all, I got all achievements but i can't continue from where i left in game pass. I'm starting in train station without my character. Someone help me?

@Monkey oi uh i had to do it in reverse of what you said, where i named the 14k kb files the savedata bits. i'll explain if i need to for anyone else that needs the info but the uh instructions were backwards ouo

Can the smallest file be with the extension 3/4, too?

Thank you so much, it worked, thanks

I'm still having issues. All that happened was I lost my Steam save.

I have 14 folders instead of 5 inside the "C:\Users\[Your username]\AppData\Local\Packages\Neowiz.3616725F496B_r4z3116tdh636\SystemAppData\wgs\ [Your unique ID]00000000000000000000000000007B71E406" destination.

Thank you for saving my run, After I beat this game I felt a special connection to it and didn't want to have to download someone else's save, I know that's silly but It's how I felt so thanks again.
