About BIK
RAD Game Tools made Bink in 1999 for games' intros, cutscenes and menus, and thousands of PC and console games have shipped their videos as .bik files, often in a Movies or Video folder.
A BIK holds Bink's own video, made to decode quickly on modest hardware, with Bink Audio, sometimes in a track for each of the game's languages.
Filepeek decodes Bink 1 with FFmpeg inside your browser, picture and sound, and Export saves an MP4 that plays on anything. Bink 2, which newer games use, has no open decoder, so a Bink 2 file shows its About card instead.

Questions
Where are a game's BIK videos?
Usually in a Movies, Video or Cinematics folder where the game is installed. Drop one here to watch it.
Why does my BIK show what it is instead of playing?
It's Bink 2, which newer games use under .bk2 and sometimes .bik. No open decoder reads Bink 2, so Filepeek names it on its About card.
Does the sound play?
Yes. Bink Audio decodes along with the picture.
Can I convert it to MP4?
Yes. Choose Export, then Save as MP4.
