Hi Darin!

Thanks for reaching Microsoft Community. We're here to help and let's work on this together.

Yes, it is possible to restore a cloud save for a game that was accidentally overwritten. To do this, you will need to follow these steps:



1. Open the game on your Xbox console.

2. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

3. Select "My games & apps" and then select "See all" to view all your games.

4. Find the game that you want to restore the cloud save for and press the menu button on your controller.

5. Select "Manage game & add-ons" and then select "Saved data".

6. Select "Cloud saves" and then select the saved data that you want to restore.

7. Select "Download to console" to restore the cloud save to your Xbox console.



Please note that this will overwrite any local save data that you currently have on your console, so make sure to back up any local saves before restoring the cloud save.

Hope this helps!

Since the cloud data was overwritten so you can't go back to the previous save, you would have to have deleted the local game data and then restored it to the previous cloud.

If a cloud save has been overwritten, then there is no way to get that save back.

Thank you for responding. Is there any way you can tell me how I would see if my cloud save has been overwritten by my local save?
