BIONICLE Defender/Challenge .dat .s2 and .exp files - Plamz Doom - 07-01-2020

Hey, i'm trying to rip the sprites from the Kiloo LEGO Java games BIONICLE Defender, Challenger LEGO Racers etc but i've come across these 2 unknown file types and .dat files. I am very very new to messing around with Hex Editing and don't really know where to begin so i'm hoping someone could head me in the right direction or straight up open one for me.

.dat opened in HxD - https://imgur.com/q1TQLYR
.s2 opened in HxD - https://imgur.com/wdjyDzC
.exp opened in HxD - https://imgur.com/6b1uBjM

i have a hunch the .s2 and .dat files hold images and the .exp ones don't. i know i'm asking a lot for these very obscure games that nobody even knows anything about or even remembers they existed in the first place, But any help would be appreciated though. If you need to look at the files yourself just ask.

Hi, have you tried using a decompiler

What like a programme tailored specific to these files? because that doesn't exist.
