RAR

Zipped file type

RAR is a file archive format used to compress and bundle multiple files into a single package, similar to ZIP.

The format takes its name from the program that creates it (Roshal Archive, after its creator).

RAR files typically use the .rar extension and are common for distributing large downloads: I need to extract that RAR before I can install the game.
