What is a LEVEL1 file?

LEVEL1 files mostly belong to Unity. LEVEL1 files are used primarily in the Unity game engine to store essential game data. They package information such as level layouts, asset details, and metadata.
These files function as containers that hold data for:
  • Unity game data – the core elements needed for game execution.
  • Unity game metadata – details that define how assets interact.
  • Unity game level design – structural data for constructing game levels.
  • Some versions have been used in games like The Talos Principle and may even be linked to database systems such as MongoDB.
    FilExt.com notes: They are not meant to be edited directly. Instead, use the Unity Editor or specialized extraction tools. For more details visit Unity or check out additional resources at Croteam and MongoDB.

    How to open a LEVEL1 file

    You need a suitable software like Unity to open a LEVEL1 file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your LEVEL1 file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a LEVEL1 file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

These files may contain meshes, textures, 3D models, shaders, audio, or even game databases. The files are stored in the Assets folder in the Unity game directory. ASSETS files are used when building a Unity project into an executable game or when modding an existing game. This file format is classified as Game.
