Line 1:
A '''WAL''' file is an archive used in the Sly Cooper games to store game files. They are similar to other archive formats, such as RAR and ZIP, but use a different compression algorithm. The contents of a WAL archive vary depending on the game build, but they typically contain level data, graphics, music, and sound effects.

Line 5:
== Extracting WAL files ==
WAL files can be extracted using [[SlyTools]]. In order to extract the contents of a WAL file you will also need the accompanying [[WAC]], which serves as the table-of-contents for the compressed WAL content.
Some games in the series, such as the PS3 remasters, have their WAC and WAL files exposed in the game's data. Others, like the PS2 release builds, have the WAL encrypted and hidden in the ISO.
