Big Game's audio presentation excels with its DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 tracks, delivering robust and immersive soundscapes with pristine dialogue, impactful explosions, dynamic range, and excellent surround usage, despite a lesser Dolby Digital 2.0 option for the unrated cut.

Extra: 36

The UK Blu-ray of 'Big Game' offers a slightly longer uncensored cut than the US release, featuring interviews, a VFX breakdown, and a theatrical vs. unrated version comparison. However, the added four minutes in the unrated version bring minimal enhancement, and its Dolby TrueHD 2.0 track lacks the impact of the 5.1 surround mix.
