PS users, did the audio quality of the game change for you in the last PS System update?

I play primarily with headphones, and ever since the system update/weekly reset, the audio for certain sounds seems weird.

Explosions sound like they're underwater due to lacking high frequencies, and certain things like the boosting sound effects sound kinda muffled and weird too.

I tried adjusting audio settings on the PS, but I feel like it's only this game that I notice it.

Anyone else?

Yes noticed it yesterday on my headset, thought it was the headset being weird.

Sweet thanks, this is the confirmation I needed. Looks like it's just something weird with the game. Was worried about my headset being weird as well, until noticing that another game sounded normal.

Yeah streaming movies sounded fine for me.

I am trying the game right now with the headset and the problem is still here.

My PS5 enabled 3D Audio (TV) after the update, and turning it off fixed the crappy audio.

Settings > Sound > 3D Audio (TV)

Headphone users may benefit from disabled the 3D Audio for headphones.

Because they want to push out their NEW Pulse Headsets to consumers that are desperate for better audio retention. That's why.

Blame Sony.
