Sorry, not into games, so up to you to try the possibilities in the vagaries of your game engine Wink

png & tga are not the only formats to support transparency. Discounting gif as poor quality and tif with a clipping mask as too complicated

The alpha channel is a mask so there will be 'something' remaining

For png, and the png export settings. Try turning off the Save colour values from transparent pixels screenshot https://i.imgur.com/c9KOuxd.jpg

For tga, only one option and I have seen this before. Turn off the run-length-encoding (RLE) compression. https://i.imgur.com/NMaMt5O.jpg

Do not discount bmp, there is a transparency option in Advanced Options -> 16bit . 
Unlikely but sometimes Do not write colour space information needs to be checked. https://i.imgur.com/Coza0wm.jpg

All three show with an image viewer as having transparency: https://i.imgur.com/moEoiuM.jpg
