    Yes it will.
    As long as apps are backed up they will download once 8.1 loads.
    However game saves will be lost.

    Application data (such as settings, and so on) is only included in backup if the developer of that specific app has explicitly implemented support for that.

    Most applications don't support it.

    For example: Instagram will require your login when opened, and most applications will behave as if they are being installed for the first time.

    Best regards

    You didn't mention what model phone you had.
    If you have an SD card you can choose to keep the contents.

    Do note that keeping the contents does not extend to apps installed on the card.

    Yes that is normal considering with an SD card-equipped phone, anything on main/internal memory is wiped regardless.

    But still, a backup is a very good idea.
