A KPF file contains an eBook created by Amazon Kindle Create, a program used to create professional-quality books to be published on the Kindle store. It stores an eBook in the Kindle Create Publishable Format (KPF), which saves the book content, table of contents, and book formatting information. KPF files can be uploaded to the Kindle Direct Publishing platform to be published and made available for download on the Kindle store by other users.

A KPF file may also be a game data file used by games developed with Nightdive Studios' Kex Engine, such as Turok and Blood: Fresh Supply. It is a container file that stores assets required by a game, such as textures, models, audio files, and scripts. Gamers looking to modify elements of a game using KPF files to store assets are the primary users who encounter the files.
More Information
The Kex Engine is a game engine designed to help remaster and re-release classic video games for modern platforms, such as Turok, System Shock: Enhanced Edition, Doom + Doom II, and Blood: Fresh Supply. These games use KPF files to store and load their in-game content.
KPF files are typically bundled with the game and read at runtime by the Kex Engine to present graphics, sounds, and gameplay elements. The structure of a KPF file is specific to the engine, and users generally do not modify these files unless they are creating modifications.
How to open a KPF file
KPF files are not meant to be opened. Instead, the game packaged with the KPF files automatically references them to load the content they store.
Some advanced users may extract assets from KPF files to modify them using modding tools, such as SLADE. However, doing so may not be officially supported and can affect game performance or stability.
