Electronic Arts MPCh Video File

An MPC file may also be a video file saved in the Electronic Arts MPCh format, which is used by various PlayStation 2 games, such as FIFA 2007 and Need for Speed: Underground. It is typically used to store title and logo sequences, opening movies, and in-game cutscenes.

MPC files are uncommon since they are only packaged with PlayStation 2 games. You will most likely only encounter them if you dump the resource files from a game onto your computer or if someone shares an MPC video with you that was dumped from a game.

NOTE: .MAD video files are also utilized in various Electronic Arts video games for PlayStation 2.

You can open MPC files with VideoLAN VLC media player in Windows, macOS, or Linux. To open an MPC file, select Media → Open File... or drag and drop the MPC file onto VLC media player.
