You could try if Googles ML model "magika" can do a better job (available via pypi). Otherwise, what exactly does "file" or better "file -i" say? Worst case, you could open the files in a hex editor and google the first few bits. Chances are the format uses "magic bits", so the first few bits in hex are identical for all files of that format.
