This sounds like the issue I had a good while ago, before realising something I was using was trying to output as surround sound, whereas I only had stereo speakers (so some sounds seemed normal, some incredibly low).

Just thought of giving that a mention. It may be worth having a look in your game settings, if there is an option to output as Stereo.

No option for that on the audio section of the game.

I installed the game myself and had a look, unfortunately you're right. My speakers are decent with hearing everything, however I can definitely notice the vocals being considerably lower than the music and such.

There is a way to normalise audio levels from within Windows sound settings, you just have to remember to revert once you're done playing.
This seems to be a good article about it: https://pureinfotech.com/normalize-sound-volume-windows-10/

It's a workaround, but it should help with the game and anything else you'd have this issue with. If you're using Linux, unfortunately I can't help. Good luck!

It's on console dude lol.

Ah fuck. Sorry man, I hope someone can figure it out. It's a very new game, so hopefully more people take enough notice for a fix to be implemented.

Otherwise, I found an article which seems to allude to advanced volume settings to 'normalise audio', on an Xbox, in a similar way: https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/help/hardware-network/display-sound/choosing-speaker-audio-output

If you're using a Playstation, it may be worth digging around in your system settings. Sometimes the option is referred to as 'equalise', 'dynamic range', etc.

Hope this helps!
