What is this vpk file?

Game file used by some games developed with the Source Engine, which include Left 4 Dead and Portal 2; may be a master directory file for a collection of VPK files or may be one of the raw VPK data files; used for storing maps and other original game content, but can can be used for making game mods as well. VPK files are saved as part of a VPK package. Each VPK package has a master VPK directory file named archive_dir.vpk (where "archive" is the name of the VPK package) and VPK archive files named archive_0.vpk, archive_1.vpk, etc. NOTE: The VPK format is the successor to the .GCF format.
