Effects Volume: Keep at 100. Audio Mix: Some players report that using Boost High helps you best hear high frequencies like gunshots, footsteps and other effects, but the results may vary based on your individual speaker setup. In most cases, though, the differences with the presets aren't massive.

Which audio is footsteps?

Every single professional streamer and player we researched used Boost High for their Audio Mix, with Vikkstar explaining that the “high-frequency sounds—which is footsteps, whereas explosions are low sounds.”

What's the best sound setting for hearing footsteps?

The most important setting is the Audio Mix, for which we suggest Boost High. This setting is used widely by most Warzone players for its ability to help you hear enemy footsteps on approach. No one will sneak up on you with Boost High—unless they're using Dead Silence, of course.
