Worried that your progress won’t save in Spirits mode? Here’s how Smash Ultimate saving works, and how to save you game in Super Smash Bros Ultimate!<\/b>
\nSuper Smash Bros Ultimate is out now, and there\u2019s a lot of content to unlock, including a simply ridiculous amount of characters. If you\u2019ve spent ages unlocking things you want to make absolutely sure that your progress is saved, but how does Smash Ultimate saving work? Does Smash Bros Ultimate save all the time, only some times, or do you have to save manually? What about in Classic Mode? How do you save in World of Light? We\u2019ve got the answers.
When it comes to regular saving, Super Smash Bros Ultimate is very generous. In order to save your progress normally, all you have to do is complete a match. So if you meet a new challenger and want to unlock them, once you\u2019ve defeated them the game will save automatically. In Classic Mode it\u2019s a little different, as you\u2019ll have to complete a full run in Classic before the game saves. Don\u2019t turn off your Switch during a run and you\u2019ll be fine.
Smash Ultimate saving in the much longer World of Light campaign, however, is different. For the first time, you can actually save manually. During a playthrough, you can save the game by press either the Start or + button, depending on what controller you\u2019re using. This will pull up the options menu. You\u2019ll see Difficulty, Controls, Inventory, How to Play, and most importantly, Save. Choose that option, and Smash Bros Ultimate will save your World of Light campaign adventure up to that point, along with everything you\u2019ve unlocked in it.
The game does autosave at various points, but just to make sure you don\u2019t lose everything, pull up the options menu and save manually whenever you can. We\u2019re sure you don\u2019t want to lose anything you\u2019ve fought for.<\/p>\n
