Extract text from Game data files (XRG)
To convert XRG Game files to another format, you need Starbreeze Engine or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "Proprietary Game Data File" file type, you need software like Starbreeze Engine or a similar tool.
The .XRG file is a proprietary data format primarily used to store game states, dialogue scripts, and display settings. It is utilized by diverse video games, including The Chronicles of Riddick (Starbreeze Engine), F.E.A.R. (Monolith Productions), and classic titles like X-COM: UFO Defense. Outside of gaming, it stores color calibration data for X-Rite i1Profiler and configuration lists for ALi Corp satellite receivers.
Users typically encounter .XRG files when attempting to mod video games, extract text dialogue, or back up satellite channel lists. The main disadvantage of this format is its extreme fragmentation and proprietary nature. You cannot easily open an .XRG file in standard word processors, and it is entirely unsupported by web browsers. Without the exact game engine or specific community modding tools, the data is locked away.
When modding or extracting readable data, the best target formats for text-based .XRG files are TXT, XML, or JSON. Converting to these standard formats makes the game dialogue or configuration data easily editable. However, if the file is a binary game save or a compiled firmware dump, attempting to convert it to a document format will result in corrupted, unreadable output.
This file format is difficult to open or convert because there is no universal standard; an .XRG satellite receiver file shares nothing but the extension with an .XRG sky environment file from a video game. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the data. Standard online converters fail completely because they do not know which variant they are looking at. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible. convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your XRG file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

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 XRG converter.
