No Man’s Sky

No Man’s Sky cross-save: missing saves and conflicts

Linking accounts is only the beginning. Upload the intended save on the source platform, then download it through Cross-Save Manager on the destination. If a conflict appears, choose the version you want to retain rather than assuming the game merges progress.

Connect and upload the intended save

Use the official Hello Games Cloud account connection page and enable the relevant platforms. Launching on a linked platform uploads its most recent save automatically. Cross-platform storage holds at most 5 saves. A single linked account can support transfer from PS4 to PS5 when both use the same PSN account.

Find the save on the other device

Click the empty cloud icon beside another local save to upload it. On the receiving platform, open Cross-Save Manager from the save-selection screen and download the desired save to local storage. If accounts are linked but the feature is unavailable, check the cross-save toggle for the current platform.

Handle conflicts without a destructive reset

A mismatch in save size and timestamp can trigger a choice of versions. Review which progress you want before choosing. A ticked cloud icon or Cross-Save Manager removes a cloud copy. Disconnect all accounts permanently erases the Hello User ID and server saves, though local saves remain; do not use it as routine troubleshooting. Report persistent issues to Hello Games Zendesk with reproduction details.
