Editor’s View: The “Unreal Engine” Rule

“I’ve spent hours creeping through the dark corridors in Quarantänezone, and I know the pain of Early Access bugs. One moment you are extracting, the next the game freezes, and your file is corrupted.

Because Quarantänezone: Der letzte Check is built on Unreal Engine, the save files are hidden deep in the ‘Local’ AppData folder. Many generic guides will send you to ‘LocalLow’ or ‘Documents’—those are wrong. I wrote this guide so you can find the actual files immediately and secure your loot.”

— Catherine Hu, Senior Editor & Survival Game Enthusiast at XMODhub

For the Steam version of Quarantänezone: Der letzte Check, the save files are stored in the hidden Local AppData folder.

The direct path is:

C:\Users\[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\QuarantineZone\Saved\SaveGames\

How to navigate there quickly:
