Summary
Pak mods are commonly associated with games that use the Unreal Engine, like Palworld. In modding, a .pak file is a compressed archive format containing various game assets, such as textures, models, sounds, and more. Modders often create and distribute mods in the form of .pak files to easily package and share their modifications for games built on the Unreal Engine, allowing players to enhance or alter aspects of the game.
