BIK Player

If you are not familiar with Bink video files or the .BIK file extension, let me offer you a brief explanation: it is a proprietary video file format that is commonly used in video games. The animations for numerous computer games are stored as Bink video files. Load a Bink video file into the free BIK Player and the application will, as its name so adequately points out, play it.

The installation file is little over 6MB in size. Run this file once the download completes and you will be presented with a simple setup wizard. A few clicks later you will go through it and complete the installation process. There’s nothing complicated about the setup – if you’ve installed an application before, you shouldn't have any problems with this one.

In the upper left hand corner of the interface you will see two menus: File and Help. From the File Menu you can Open a .BIK file, Close it, go Full Screen, and Exit the application. From the Help menu you can view the About prompt and you can visit the official BIK Player website.

Just like installing the application, just like getting started with the interface, using BIK Player is an incredibly simple process: just load a .BIK file and the application will start playing it. Hit the F11 hotkey and you will be able to enjoy the playback in full screen mode. The annoying thing is that there are no playback controls. One would expect the Space bar to pause the playback, but that does not happen.

BIK Player is a free application.

Load Bink (.BIK) files into the free BIK Player and enjoy watching them in full screen mode.
