Line 1:
The Bundle container is the core file format of Criterion's 7th-gen titles with the exception of Burnout Revenge (X360). Each Bundle holds one or more resources (assets) and contains information about each resource, such as its size, [[Resource Types (Burnout Paradise)|type]], compression, alignment, and so on.
The Bundle format has two major versions: the original, using the <code>bndl</code> magic, and Bundle 2, using the <code>bnd2</code> magic. The first Bundle format underwent at least five iterations during its use from early 2006 to early-mid 2007, but it was never used in a retail game and can only be found in development builds of games such as Burnout Paradise. It was succeeded by Bundle 2, which ultimately saw use in the retail versions of Burnout Paradise (version 2), Need for Speed Hot Pursuit (version 3), and Need for Speed Most Wanted (version 5).
