What is a RESOURCE file?
A RESOURCE file is an archive used by games and applications built with the Unity game engine. It stores chunks of data in a proprietary format extracted from various assets, such as textures, sounds, 3D models, and shaders, that Unity references to load and run a game. RESOURCE files are typically generated when a user builds and packages a Unity project for release, allowing the game to load required content efficiently during gameplay.
More Information
All RESOURCE files are located in a game's main data folder (titled: [Game Name]_Data). You may see them named resources.resource or sharedassets0.resource (with an ascending number). Each RESOURCE file works alongside other Unity data files, such as .ASSETS or .RESS files, which together contain the game's compiled resources.
NOTE: All RESOURCE files are located in a game's main data folder (titled: [Game Name]_Data).
How to open a RESOURCE file
RESOURCE files are not meant to be opened. Instead, Unity-based games and applications reference the files to load content.
Advanced users and modders may attempt to extract data from RESOURCE files using third-party tools designed to unpack Unity assets, such as AssetStudio. However, modifying RESOURCE files can break a game or violate its terms of service.
