WebM (.webm) is a video file format developed by Google. It is subset of the
Matroska container format developed by
Xiph, and incorporates VP8 encoding technology by
On2.
The biggest benefit of WebM over Bink (or AVI) is that of file size; a WebM video will be significantly smaller than that of a similar-quality Bink file. For example, the installation size of Hunt Down the Freeman decreased by 5.7 GB when switching its FMV cutscenes from Bink to WebM[1].
WebM is supported in the following games, engines, and engine branches:
Source 2
Strata Source
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (since 2018 Panorama update)
Hunt Down the Freeman

Bink video is replaced with webm (like CSGO and Source 2) and has successfully freed up 5.7GB of space
