How to Delete a Save File in Type Soul (Roblox)
Type Soul is a Roblox game built around the Bleach anime universe, where players grind through races, grades, and skill trees that take serious time to build. Because progression is so deep, knowing how to delete or reset a save file is a genuinely important piece of game knowledge — whether you want to start fresh, switch races, or fix a character that's gone in a direction you don't like.
Here's exactly how it works, and what you need to think through before you commit.
What "Deleting a Save" Actually Means in Type Soul
Type Soul doesn't use a traditional save-file system the way a single-player RPG does. Your progress is stored server-side, tied directly to your Roblox account. There's no local file to delete from your hard drive or mobile device.
Instead, resetting your character is handled within the game itself, through a mechanic called a full wipe or data reset. This clears your race, grade, accessories, skill progression, and most earned items — essentially returning your character to a blank slate.
Understanding this distinction matters because no amount of clearing Roblox cache or reinstalling the app will touch your in-game data. The reset has to happen through the game's own systems.
How to Delete Your Save / Reset Your Data in Type Soul
The In-Game Reset Method
The primary way to wipe your save in Type Soul is through the in-game menu:
- Launch Type Soul through Roblox on any platform.
- Open the Menu (typically the hamburger or settings icon on screen).
- Look for the "Wipe Data" or "Reset Character" option — this is usually found under a settings or profile tab.
- Confirm the action when prompted. The game will ask you to verify because this action is permanent and irreversible.
⚠️ Once confirmed, your race selection, grade level, skill trees, and progression are gone. There is no undo.
Using In-Game Items (Partial vs. Full Resets)
Type Soul also has specific items that allow more targeted resets rather than a full wipe:
| Item | What It Resets |
|---|---|
| Race Reroll | Changes your race without wiping everything else |
| Skill Reset / Skill Wipe | Resets your skill point allocation |
| Full Wipe | Resets all data — race, skills, grade, inventory progress |
These items can be earned through gameplay or obtained via the in-game shop using Robux. If your goal is to change one specific thing rather than start entirely from scratch, a targeted item may be the better path.
Before You Wipe: Variables That Should Affect Your Decision
A full data reset in Type Soul isn't something to rush into. A few factors make this decision meaningfully different depending on your situation:
How far into progression you are Early-game players (Soul+ or low Vastro/Shikai tier) lose far less than someone who has ground to Vastocar, Bankai, or Voltstanding. The time cost of resetting scales with how far you've come.
Why you want to reset
- Chose the wrong race? A Race Reroll item handles this without a full wipe.
- Misallocated skill points? A Skill Reset item is the cleaner option.
- Fundamentally unhappy with your build or want a completely fresh experience? A full wipe makes sense.
Your platform and playtime availability Type Soul's grind is significant. Players on platforms where they can play longer sessions (PC, primarily) may find rebuilding less daunting than mobile users with limited playtime windows. This affects how "costly" a full reset actually feels.
Game version and updates Type Soul receives regular updates that can change race balance, skill trees, and available mechanics. A wipe timed around a major update can be strategic — you get to rebuild under the current meta rather than carrying forward an outdated build.
🎮 What You Keep and What You Lose
This is where players most often get surprised. Understanding the exact scope of a full wipe helps you make an informed call:
Typically lost in a full wipe:
- Race and race-specific abilities
- Grade/rank progression
- Skill tree investments
- Most earned accessories and cosmetics tied to progression
Typically retained:
- Your Roblox account itself
- Robux-purchased cosmetics (varies — check current patch notes)
- Group memberships and social connections within Roblox
The specific list of what's preserved can shift between updates, so checking the Type Soul Discord or official Trello board for the most current wipe behavior is worth doing before you pull the trigger.
A Note on Account-Level Resets
Some players explore whether creating a new Roblox alt account gives them a "clean" Type Soul save. Technically, yes — a different Roblox account starts Type Soul from zero. But this comes with its own trade-offs: any Robux purchases, group perks, or premium benefits on your main account don't carry over, and managing two accounts adds friction.
Whether that approach fits your situation depends on what you're actually trying to achieve and how attached you are to your main account's broader Roblox history.
The right reset method — targeted item, full in-game wipe, or starting on a separate account — comes down to specifics that only you can weigh against your own progression, time investment, and goals for where you want the character to go next.
