The .wux file format is a compressed, read-only disk image format derived from the raw (wud) dumps of Nintendo Wii U optical discs. In the context of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (BOTW), .wux files serve as a highly efficient storage method for the game’s complete dataset, reducing file size by approximately 20-40% compared to raw dumps while maintaining full compatibility with emulators such as Cemu. botw wux file
