About RDVGAME files
The .rdvgame file is a JSON-based settings and save file used by Randovania, an open-source multi-game randomizer primarily known for modifying Metroid Prime and other classic titles. It stores configuration data, seed information, and randomized item placements. Since it relies on standard JSON formatting internally, the data is actually plain text but specifically structured for the Randovania application. The main disadvantage of the .rdvgame format is its highly specific use case and non-standard file extension. Standard text editors can open the file, but modifying the JSON structure manually often breaks the randomizer logic and corrupts the file. Furthermore, standard online converters do not recognize the .rdvgame extension, leading to generic format mismatch error messages. Users typically need to convert these files to standard JSON or TXT to share seed logic with other players, debug generation issues, or document their run settings. Because it is a specialized application file, converting it directly to other console game save formats is impossible. Standard converters fail because they lack the specific parsing logic required for this niche randomizer format. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible on convert.guru. Even though the extension is obscure, our analysis detects the supported underlying embedded JSON format, allowing viewing and text extraction.
Convert.Guru analyzes your RDVGAME file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert RDVGAME file to EXE, ISO, BIN, CUE, PAK, WAD, PK3, PK4, BSP, MAP, SAV or DAT, you can use Randovania or similar software from the "Game Randomizer Settings File" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert MOD, BIN, CFG, SCX, DAT, MPQ, LOG, CUE, INI, EXE, SCM or ISO files to RDVGAME, try Randovania or another comparable tool in the "Game Randomizer Settings File" category.
The RDVGAME Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our RDVGAME converter.
