How to enjoy the latest Dolby Atmos 3D sound in PUBG Mobile

Vincent Wang (PUBG Mobile Head) released the following statement on the PUBG Mobile x Dolby Atmos collab:

“We’re so excited to bring on pioneering Dolby Atmos immersive audio to amplify the player experience. Even more than visuals, sound plays a key role in immersing players in PUBG Mobile to keep them on their toes and in the middle of the action. Players will be able to hear the difference in their games and utilize this to their advantage. We look forward to working with Dolby further in the future to continue bringing technological advancements to players everywhere.”

Sound is of great importance in PUBG, as it enables the player to locate and eliminate an opponent. With the Dolby Atmos option, one can now enable it from the settings menu and pinpoint the exact location with the immersive audio experience. However, the Dolby Atmos option is only available in the arena mode and will soon be pushed to other modes also.

In classic matches, players can choose between three sound options, which include low, high, and ultra. They are required to download an extra resource pack to unlock the Ultra SFX quality. In volume controls, players can tweak the volume for Master, SFX, UI, and Music.
