Getting the correct audio cues and footsteps in Warzone 2 is intrinsic to performing well in the game. However, audio in a battle royale setting can sometimes feel clunky and inconsistent. Numerous factors within the game affect the reception of audio, and without the right audio configurations, players will definitely feel themselves lacking behind.

In this article, we have compiled the best audio settings for the game, which players can use to enhance their overall gaming experience. It must be noted that, despite the best settings, there will always be a margin for error in receiving clear footsteps and audio cues in a battle royale game as chaotic as Warzone 2.

On that note, here is a list of the best audio settings for players to use in Warzone 2:

What is the best audio mode for Warzone 2?

Our overall recommendation to get the best receptive audio mode experience to listening to footsteps is to have the master volume cranked at around 60-70 with the bass-boosted mix. We believe this works well to keep track of enemy footsteps and make educated decisions on players' next steps.

Several settings, ranging from the Master Volume to Voice Chat, are subjective to players' tastes. However, keeping subtitles on within the game can often help players get some cues from their operators within the game. This goes hand-in-hand with dialogue volume, for if players miss an important in-game call out from their characters, they can quickly refer to the subtitles.

While these settings will help players get a better idea of the footsteps and other in-game audio cues, much of the audio transmission within the game relies on the audio gear players possess.
