What is an XWM file

XWM files mostly belong to Fallout 4. XWM files are compressed audio files built on the RIFF container format.
This format is used to store sound data for games. The files are encoded with the XWMA audio codec and are the same type of files used in Fallout 4.
Details include:

Format: RIFF-based structure

Function: Compress and store game audio efficiently

Usage: Commonly found in game soundtracks, notably Fallout 4

FilExt.com note: These files are designed for use in game audio environments and require appropriate media players or game audio tools that support the XWMA codec.

How to open an XWM file
