Xbox Games Pass for PC cloud saves

There was a thread recently about this TOW:

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/all/the-outer-worlds-game-pass-pc-no-cloud-saves

There seems to be some confusion over whether it has cloud saves as, whilst it's not list in the specs and whatnot, I see comments elsewhere pointing to cloud saves being enabled so no clue

The simple answer is to sign out and resign in. That is typically the issue. Here's a link to cloud data. That said it could very well be a common server issue:

"Xbox Game Pass for PC] Just lost my saves"

"Syncing Xbox One game saves to the cloud error messages"

Yes, you can!

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is a Complete Subscription and you can play on Xbox and on PC.

BUT, your save are syncronized at the cloud, and maybe you will have problemas with saved games.

Yeah I'll probably do that, because at least on PC using Game Pass, it's not saving on the cloud.

Hello,

So, in terms of saves, I found another thread that seemed to have a similar issue: Xbox Game Pass on PC : Force Cloud Save Sync - Microsoft Community. For this it recommends deleting local save files. You can probably move them instead of deleting them so if the game doesn't register the local files and it still doesn't sync, you don't lose your save entirely.

Just in case, I play No Man's Sky on my Console but I'm downloading it on my PC with Xbox Game Pass to see if I can check out any discrepancies and seeing about reproducing your issue. I know that on Xbox when you first launch the game, it will sync your data for No Man's Sky before launching. So I've logged onto my Xbox, played around a little and used a save point to save before exiting. NMS is currently downloading on my PC so when it finishes I will double check and see if it and how it syncs the saves.

When you launch the game does it detail anything that says it's syncing or anything like that?

Just additional resources just in case:
