Hello Denek,
Xlsx files are spreadsheet, for opening this kind of files we need a suitable file for spreadsheet. There are so many available software or packages are available that you can install into your UNIX and can read your spreadsheet file.
I can suggest some names which are really some good software. Office web apps, speedster is both good for online spreadsheet reading. Gnumeric and Libraoffice are very popular software for spreadsheet.
Thank you,

If you’re on Unix and you need to open an XLSX file (.xlsx), the best way to do it is to use Office Online. You simply need a web browser, Microsoft account, and internet connection to open the file. No need to run any command or install any program. On your Unix computer, open your web browser and visit Microsoft Office Online.
Click Microsoft Office Excel then log in with your Microsoft account. You need a Microsoft account to use Office Online applications. If you don’t have an account, just create one. Once you are logged in, just open your Microsoft Office Excel file (.xlsx). When you make changes to the file and save it, the file is saved online and not on your computer.
If you want to save a copy of your file to your computer, in Microsoft Office Excel Online, click “File,” “Save As,” and then “Download.” Select where you want to save it on your hard drive and click “Save.”
