Cities skylines remastered - unable to save

Game version
Xbox Series S and xCloud gaming

Expansions installed
After Dark,
Snowfall,
Natural Disasters,

Issue
I am unable to save any existing and new games. I have an error message that states "an error has occurred while saving the game. Please try again later". I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game but no luck, I have cleared cache too. I have the same with save and autosave.

Could you help me?

I am also running the remaster version of the series s and have not come by this issue. Did you make sure your internet connection was working properly? It could also be that you don't have enough disk space to save to

Yes I have a good connection and enough disk Space. That's why I tried too on my computer with xCloud. But I had the same error than on xbox series.
 
I am having the same issue. Seems to be when I hitnaround 16.4 mb on a save in both cloud and console. Not sure what to do
I think you're right, my city is 16.32mb. I hope paradox increases the limit because it doesn't make sense then to propose 25 tiles in remastered version por Series S/X. I did'nt have this problem with my Xbox One version (only 9 tiles).

Mine is at 16.32mb 25 squares. Xbox 1 version i have a 33mb file. Frustrating. Wandering if 2 start again but will i get the same issue
 
Add another instance of this issue.
- Xbox Series X
- Remastered version
- “An error occurred while saving the game. Please try again later.”
- No cheats, restricted to 9 tiles (never enabled 25), no DLCs except what’s included with the base game
- 165,000 population
- File size of the save is 33MB
- Restarting the game (quit, remove from Quick Resume, restart console) usually allows me to perform one test save on an existing loaded save, but the first auto save attempt after 10 minutes of gameplay generates the error above
- Cannot save manually past that point
- Have tried:
— Restarting console and game (see above)
— Saving existing game to a new save slot, loading from there, re-saving into yet another new save slot - same synptoms

I have not tried to start a new city, but frankly I’m pretty discouraged from playing after repeatedly losing progress…
 
I too am having this issue now as my city has gotten larger. I can no longer play. I contacted Xbox and an expert helped me with deleting and re adding my account and then resetting Xbox. When we deleted my account and re added it that’s when I got a corrupt message and couldn’t even open my city. We then reset my Xbox and the city opened and initially saved but then the message kept coming back on auto and manual save.

I was then guided to contact paradox and I got a reply today saying to post on this thread and that hopefully the problem should fix itself soon! so no help or solution really!

Anyone managed to figure out how to solve this or whether a bug fix is coming or if anyone had had any better answers or guidance to this?

Just to add - my save size is actually 16.32MB, not 33MB. The size I was looking at was the total size used for all saves. I’ve now independently tested (by copying prior saves to new slots) that once the save is 16.31 - 16.32MB, further saving becomes impossible. :(

I have the same problem on Xbox Series X. The game cannot be saved, i urge you to solve the problem, otherwise there is no point in continuing to play the game or downloading a newer version.

Liebes Paradox-Team, ihr ruiniert euer eigenes Spiel. Wann wird das Problem mit dem Sparen endlich gelöst? Kartengrößen größer als 16MB können nicht gespeichert werden! Ihr Spiel macht also keinen Sinn.

Dear Paradox team, you are ruining your own game. When will the problem with saving finally be solved? Map sizes larger than 16MB cannot be saved! So your game makes no sense.
