What is an .AUD file?
AUD files are audio files saved in the Westwood Studios (AUD) format, which was developed for use in classic PC video games. The format typically uses proprietary compression to reduce file size while maintaining clear playback for in-game music, sound effects, and voice clips. Unlike common consumer formats such as MP3 or AAC, AUD files were designed specifically for game engines and are not widely supported by standard media players.
You may encounter AUD files when exploring or modifying older Westwood Studios titles, extracting game assets, or working with archived PC games from the 1990s and early 2000s. File Viewer Plus can play AUD files and convert the audio to MP3 or M4A formats at different bitrates and frequencies, making them compatible with a broader range of devices and media players.
