Hey there Under Southern Lights,

Thanks for reaching out to the Forums for clarity on how to continue your saved games progress. Unfortunately, when you transfer games to an external drive, it only saves the game program itself. In order to pick up from where you left off through another
console, you would need to play on your console and reconnect to Live. When you do, the Xbox will prompt you on whether or not you want to continue from your offline save or through the save you had when you were last online. After you save while connected,
your progress will be tied to your gamertag and you'll be able to continue through another console .

For more information on your game saves, check out the
Xbox One cloud game saves FAQ

Hope this was informative.

Thanks for reading!

Saves are automatically sync'ed between systems, if you buy an xbox one s it would be like playing on an xbox one. You won't notice a difference in how games access save files, plug in the new system and download your profile. Boot up a game and wait while
the game syncs, your save data will then be available offline as well.

Every time you see the sync your system is sync'ing your offline save with your cloud save, and it will work the same on S and Scorpio.

On Xbox One, saves are automatically stored on both internal HDD and the Cloud, so if the internet is out you can continue playing with your offline save, and the next time you connect that offline save will be uploaded to sync the two storage devices.

Saves are transferred automatically if you buy an S, and we have no reason to believe this would be different with the Scorpio considering it is slated to support all current Xbox One games.
