About PEG files

A .PEG file is most frequently a standard JPEG image that has been saved with an incorrect or truncated file extension. However, it is also widely used as a proprietary game replay file by Peggle, an animation drawing layer in Toon Boom, or a texture package in classic PC games like Blood II. The primary disadvantage of the .PEG extension is its fragmentation and lack of native operating system support. Because Windows and macOS do not associate .PEG with standard image viewers, a perfectly valid image file will appear broken or prompt a 'choose an application' dialog. If the file is a Peggle replay, it is even more restrictive. Replay files do not contain actual video data; they only store coordinate telemetry, timestamps, and game engine events. This means you cannot natively convert a game replay .PEG to an MP4 or AVI video file using standard tools. You must render it inside the original game engine. For users dealing with the image variant, the best solution is to rename the file to JPG or convert it to standard web-safe formats like PNG or WEBP. Standard online converters often fail to process .PEG files because they rely strictly on the extension rather than reading the file header to determine the underlying format. This is where our platform excels. If it is a proprietary game or animation file, we will extract readable text or identify the embedded format, giving you a realistic path forward.

Convert.Guru analyzes your PEG file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted JPEG, JPG, PAGES, PNG, PDF, WEBP, HEIC, REPLAY, JFIF, TIF, ZIP and XLSX files.
