What is an RKV file?
An RKV file is an archive that contains resource files for games that use the Merkury game engine, primarily Ty the Tasmanian Tiger. It stores game resource files, such as music and sound effects files and models for various elements within the game. Typically, only game modders navigating the files of a game's installation directory looking to alter gameplay will encounter RKV files.
More Information
For example, a game modder may install the Ty the Tasmanian Tiger game and find an RKV file in the installation directory that stores audio played in the game. They then extract the audio files from the RKV archive to modify the sound a gamer hears within the game.
How to open an RKV file
RKV files are not meant to be opened. Instead, the game packaged with them references them to load their game content.
However, gamers looking to modify content stored in RKV files can extract files from RKV archives with the RKV Mega Tool (it only supports RKV version 1 archives) and RKV Extract.
