What is a .DCT file?

DCT files are video files that store compressed video and audio data used in certain older Electronic Arts games and multimedia titles. The format was designed for playback of in-game cinematics and animated sequences on 1990s-era PC hardware.

You may encounter DCT files when exploring game files for classic Electronic Arts titles, such as Need for Speed II. File Viewer Plus can play DCT files and convert them to MP4, enabling playback on a broader range of devices and media applications.
