The UNITY file format was developed by Unity Technologies and serves as one of the main file extensions used with the Unity Game Engine and the Unity Integrated Development Environment.

After the release of the iPhone, Unity Technologies was one of the first companies to offer full support for the platform. Nowadays, the Unity game engine is used for both iOS and Android.

UNITY files are 3D scene files that are used to create and store the virtual world of a game. Each UNITY file is an actual level in the game and it can contain objects, lighting, decorations, obstacles as well as all the placement data for all objects and all global settings.

How to open UNITY files

Files with the UNITY extension can be opened in the level editor that comes with the Unity software. The application is available for both Microsoft Windows and Mac OS platforms.
