Unity supports many different types of assets and most common image file types. It uses asset importers to process and convert external files into assets you can use in your project.

Unity supports the following kinds of files:

3D model files: Unity supports standard and proprietary model file formats. Internally, Unity uses the FBX file format as its importing chain. For a list of supported files, refer to 3D model importers.
Image files: Unity imports image files as textures and supports most common image file types. For a list of supported files, refer to Image importers.
Audio and video files: Unity supports many audio and video file formats. For a list of supported files, refer to Audio and video importers.
Shader files: Unity supports different shader file types depending on the graphics pipeline you're using. For a list of supported files, refer to Shader importers.
Text and arbitrary data: Unity can import arbitrary data from files such as .html, .xml, .json files, which you can use to store and use data from external sources. For a list of supported files, refer to Text and arbitrary data importers.
Plug-ins and code related assets: You can add managed and native plug-ins files into your project to expand the functionality of your application, and assembly definitions to create and organize your scripts into assemblies. For a list of supported files, refer to Plug-ins and code importers
Native assets: There are a range of asset types that are native to the Unity Editor. For a list of supported files, refer to Native asset importers.

Asset importers

Unity uses importers to process and convert external files into assets that can be used in your project. Each file type has a corresponding importer that handles its specific requirements.

Unity supports many asset file types via its collection of built-in importers. Most of these importers are implemented in the Unity Editor's native code. They provide the import functionality for most of Unity's basic asset types, such as 3D models, textures, and audio files.

Most importers have a corresponding class in the

UnityEditor

namespace that exposes the same configurable import settings as the Inspector window for the asset type. They also have corresponding pre-process and post-process callbacks on the

AssetPostprocessor

class so you can define custom behavior to run before or after asset import. For example, the import settings for the

AudioImporter

are configurable in the Audio Clip Inspector window or from code with the

AudioImporter

class. You can also create custom pre-import or post-import behavior for audio assets with

AssetPostprocessor.OnPreprocessorAudio

and

AssetPostprocessor.OnPostprocessAudio

respectively. This pattern applies for most major asset types.

3D model importers

Unity uses the FBX file format as its importing chain. For a list of 3D modeling software that Unity supports, refer to Model file formats.

Image importers

Unity imports image files as textures. Unity supports most common image file types, such as

.bmp

.tif

.tga

.jpg

.svg

, and

.psd

. For more information, refer to Import a texture.

Native asset importers

There are a range of asset types that are native to the Unity Editor. You can create assets of these types using Editor features. When you create these, Unity saves the files which represent them as asset files in the

Assets

folder of your project. These include animations, curves, gradients, masks, materials, and presets.

Built-in scripted importers

Scripted importers allow you to write your own custom importers for formats that Unity doesn't natively support. Some of Unity’s own built-in importers are implemented as scripted importers because they are written in C# in core packages, rather than within the Unity Editor's native code itself. Unity imports scripted importer assets after native importer assets.
