How to Save & Replay Scenes in Lost Records Bloom and Rage

The narrative experience in Don't Nod's Lost Records: Bloom and Rage allows players to relive any and all of the story's most pivotal moments if they wish. However, understanding how the game's unique save and replay features work is important. If you're trying to figure it out, here is how to save and replay scenes in Lost Records: Bloom and Rage.

How to Save Your Game in Lost Records Bloom and Rage

The save feature in Lost Records: Bloom and Rage is similar to Don't Nod's other games such as Life is Strange and its sequel Double Exposure. For better or worse, there is no manual save you can use to save your progress at any given moment. Instead, the game only has an auto-save system that adheres to reaching checkpoints in the story.

These checkpoints can usually be noted by tracking static on-screen as a scene changes, whether it's a time jump between the past in 1995 and the present, or simply changing settings around Velvet Cove. When that happens, you should see the floppy disk auto-save icon in the bottom corner, which means your progress has been saved up to that point.

All of this means that you do run a risk of losing progress if you want to exit the game during a scene rather than after it's done. Do your best to allocate your playtime with that in mind.

How to Replay Scenes in Lost Records Bloom and Rage

Again similar to other games in Don't Nod's portfolio, Lost Records: Bloom and Rage includes a dynamic Replay feature, which allows players to go back and literally replay entire scenes throughout the game. Whether it's to simply experience emotional moments in the story once more or catch up on things players may have missed the first time around.

To use this feature, you can access it via Scene Selection in the game's Main Menu or while playing the story via the Pause Menu. There you can choose to either replay a Checkpoint or replay a Scene/Entire Scene.

To make it even more flexible, the Replay feature also allows you to select between two modes - Collectible Mode and Story Mode.

Collectible Mode is ideal for when you only want to replay a scene to gather certain collectibles you may have missed the first time, particularly for Swann's Collectible Memoirs. This mode DOES NOT affect your story progression whatsoever, so you're free to do whatever is needed to catch every treasure on tape and otherwise.

Meanwhile, Story Mode is for when you want to make some changes to your story progression if you're not happy with the choices you initially made for Swann or others.

However, choose this option wisely as it will erase your story progression and choices for everything beyond the scene you select. In other words, if you want to change something you did in the very first scene of the game, all of your progression beyond that first scene WILL BE WIPED and you will have to replay it all again. In that kind of scenario, it's better to just start a new save file.
