Make the source save visible before changing devices

CD PROJEKT RED says cross-progression uploads the latest save types after account sign-in, and a cloud symbol appears beside an uploaded save. The symbol is a practical checkpoint: if it is absent, troubleshoot the source platform before expecting the target device to find that copy.

Transfer with a reversible checkpoint

The publisher notes that a save made with Phantom Liberty installed can require that content on the target; a base-game save can load in the Ultimate Edition, but not necessarily the reverse. Its mod support guidance also says the same set must be enabled across devices; unsupported console mods may not appear there.

  1. On the source device, update the game and sign in to the CD PROJEKT RED account you intend to use on both platforms.
  2. Open Load Game, enable Cross Progression if needed, make a new manual save and wait until the cloud icon appears next to it.
  3. Record the save timestamp, source platform/region, edition, Phantom Liberty ownership and whether mods were active.
  4. On the target, use the same account and check that the matching game content and compatible mod set are available before loading.
  5. Select the cloud-marked save and verify the expected character/location; keep the original local save untouched until the target copy is confirmed.
  6. If the save does not appear or load, capture the exact version, platform pair and message; follow current publisher support rather than repeatedly unlinking accounts or overwriting saves.

Frequently asked questions

Does linking my account automatically prove the save uploaded?

No. CD PROJEKT RED's instructions identify a cloud icon beside the uploaded save; check for that marker.

Can every modded save transfer to console?

No. The publisher says the same mod set is needed and unsupported console mods may be ignored; console achievements/trophies are disabled on modded saves.

Does this worksheet connect to my game account?

No. It only formats details you type in this browser; it cannot inspect or transfer saves.

Sources & revision notes

Editorial revision: November 7, 2026; not a gameplay test date. The reference notes identify source limits and version differences.

  1. CD PROJEKT RED: How to use Cyberpunk 2077 cross progression (Official)

    The publisher's instructions require the latest game update and the same CD PROJEKT RED account; an uploaded save is marked with a cloud icon. Platform and regional-version restrictions may apply. Check the live support page for current scope.

  2. CD PROJEKT RED: Cross-progression save content requirements (Official)

    The publisher says the target game must contain the same content as the save; a base-game save can load in Ultimate Edition, but an Ultimate Edition save cannot load where the Phantom Liberty expansion is absent.

  3. CD PROJEKT RED: Cross-platform mod support (Official)

    The publisher lists PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 for its cross-platform mod feature; cross-progression requires a compatible mod set, and console achievements/trophies are disabled on modded saves. Confirm feature availability for the edition and region you use.

  4. Cyberpunk 2077 Steam Community Discussions (Community)

    External user-generated PC/Steam discussions, not verified support. Match game version, expansion ownership, mods, store and account state before applying another player's report.
