  • Next to the size of the installed files bar, click the three dots (•••) > Browse.
  • This will open the 'steamapps' folder in Windows File Explorer.
  • From there, click on 'Steam' in the address bar and look for a folder called userdata.

  • Copy the entire folder and place it in a safe location: for example, your Desktop.
You can continue your gameplay from your previous standard build, but be aware that the save made on the Public Test Branch won’t be compatible with the standard build when the Update launches.

Content in the Public Test Branch is still under active development and may contain bugs, incomplete features, or placeholder assets.
