What is a PRK file?

PRK files mostly belong to Planet Coaster.

PRK files are specialized game data files used in theme park simulation titles. They contain the internal data that lets games store and load your park layouts and ride tracks.
In Planet Coaster, a PRK file saves your park design with information on ride placements, scenery, and environment settings. Similarly, in RollerCoaster Tycoon titles, these files record track designs and park configurations. For more details on the latter, visit this related page.

Key points summarized by FilExt.com:

Stores complete park layout and ride track data.
Uses a proprietary binary format that should not be edited with generic text editors.
Operates exclusively with the game software to load and execute park designs.
Modification requires using the official in-game tools and backup procedures.

FilExt.com note: Always use the game’s own editors when working with these files, and keep backups to avoid data loss.

How can I open a PRK file?

You need a suitable software like Planet Coaster to open a PRK file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your PRK file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a PRK file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
