I'm changing Xbox consoles, will it save my game progress?

McMullin McMullin · Mar 19, 2023

I'm thinking about upgrading my Xbox from an Xbox One S, to an Xbox Series S. I have a few games that are on disks that I use for my current Xbox One S, and I'm aware that these same disks won't work on the Series S. So, if I get a Series S and I get new disks of the same game, and I use the same Xbox Account, will all of my progress be saved, or will I have to start over?

You'll still have your progress, but the Series S doesn't have a disc drive, so you'd need to own the games digitally in order to be able to play them.

I don't use an Xbox. I'm playing the game on my computer with Xbox live installed. There is nothing under the settings that is labeled "Storage" that allows my to change from cloud save to disc save.

Hi

As long as your console is online the Xbox One game saves will also be held on the Microsoft servers and should be downloaded to the console again the next time you play the game.

I recently changed my Xbox One and the new console downloaded the game saves again when I start playing the games.

It's October, and I'm having this issue as well. No special items involved. Just trying to change my hair, and outfit, and gamerpic. Everything says it's saved and changed, but doesn't show up on the profile. When I go to make the change again, it's the
new avatar. So the change is being saved, just not reflecting on my profile. Also, I'm making these changes via a computer. Not a console or mobile device.

I copy this message already posted because my situation is exactly the same.
