Manual saves can be made at any time, provided one is out of combat. There is an option to either quit and save, or save and continue. When not a checkpoint save, an automatic save overwrites the most recent "soft-save" including any manual save made.

There are three main ways saves are made :Ĭheckpoint save 'spinner' For a list of main quest checkpoints, see List of Checkpoint Saves.Ĭheckpoint saves are always made either when sleeping at an Inn or Rest Camp, or when entering a Riftstone.Īdditionally automatic checkpoint saves are made at key points in the Main Quest and after purchasing items from Johnathan at his Rift Shop as well as after purchasing the Maker's Finger and haircutting. The checkpoint save can be returned to at any point from the Menu.īroadly speaking, the reason there is only one main save file per game is to prevent overcomplications or other issues (such as multiple instances of pawns, or pawns regressing) as regards the online Pawns that are available for hire to other Arisen. This save is also used when one dies, including death by the Godsbane, and selects the "Retry" option in the Menu. On starting the game the most recent save is loaded. Each save file contains two saves, the most recent save, sometimes called a soft save, and another save, the checkpoint save, which may revert to an earlier point in progress.īoth saves can be returned to manually.

In Dragon's Dogma, progress is saved as a single file, one per Arisen.
