What is a BLAL file?
A BLAL file is a metadata file used by a Nintendo Wii U or Switch video game. It is used to verify that a looped audio file contains the correct data.
More Information
Several Wii U and Switch video games developed by Nintendo use an audio framework known as AAL. Games that use AAL contain audio and audio-related files saved in a variety of proprietary file formats, including the .BARS, .BARSLIST, .BAMTA, and BLAL formats.
BLAL files are metadata files that contain a list of CRC32 hashes. Games use the hashes that BLAL files contain to verify that looped audio files (such as in-game background music) contain the correct data upon each loop.
How to open a BLAL file
BLAL files are not meant to be opened by players. Nintendo video games that use BLAL files load and use them as needed.
