The Bundle 2 container is the core file format of Burnout Paradise and Criterion's other 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, type, compression, alignment, and so on.

Bundle 2 is used in the retail versions of Burnout Paradise, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit, and Need for Speed Most Wanted. It was preceded by the original Bundle format.
