Persona 5 Strikers PC Save Utility

A simple save decryption, encryption and conversion utility for P5S PC.

Decrypting or Encrypting PC Saves

  • Locate SAVEDATA.BIN under %APPDATA%/SEGA/Steam/P5S/<account_id>/

  • Get the SteamID64 associated with the account under which the save was created

    The last segment of SteamID3 will also work ([U:1:<last_segment>])

    The name of the directory containing SAVEDATA.BIN (<account_id>) will also work

  • To decrypt or encrypt the save:

    p5spc.saveutil.exe crypt --input </path/to/SAVEDATA.BIN> --steam <SteamID64>

  • Example (using powershell):

    # decrypt SAVEDATA.BIN created with account ID 123454321
p5spc.saveutil.exe crypt `
  --input "$env:APPDATA/SEGA/Steam/P5S/123454321/SAVEDATA.BIN" `
  --steam 123454321

# encrypt the output with account ID 9876543210
p5spc.saveutil.exe crypt `
  --input "$env:APPDATA/SEGA/Steam/P5S/123454321/SAVEDATA.BIN_crypt" `
  --steam 9876543210 `
  --output "$env:APPDATA/SEGA/Steam/P5S/9876543210/SAVEDATA.BIN"

Converting Saves

Supported Save Formats

  • Switch_JP / Switch_EN
  • PC - Saves must be decrypted before converting
  • PS4_JP / PS4_EN - Saves must be decrypted before converting (e.g. using homebrew)

Usage

  • Get a save to convert:

    • Decrypt a PC save (SAVEDATA.BIN) or
    • Dump a save from Switch (savedata) or
    • Dump a decrypted save from PS4 (APP.BIN)

  • The source format will be auto-detected

  • To convert:

    p5spc.saveutil.exe convert --input <path/to/savedata> --target <target_format>

    With <target_format> being any of the formats described above

  • Saves converted to PC format must be encrypted before they can be used:

    p5spc.saveutil.exe crypt --input <path/to/savedata_conv> --steam <SteamID64>

  • Example (using powershell):

    # switch (en/jp) save to PC format
p5spc.saveutil.exe convert --input "/path/to/savedata" --target PC

# switch (en/jp) save to PS4 jp format
p5spc.saveutil.exe convert --input "/path/to/savedata" --target PS4_JP

# decrypted PC save to switch en format
p5spc.saveutil.exe convert --input "/path/to/SAVEDATA.BIN_crypt" --target Switch_EN

# decrypted PS4 (en/jp) save to PC format
p5spc.saveutil.exe convert --input "/path/to/APP.BIN" --target PC
