Sky Deutschland’s Das Boot sets sail in 8K and Dolby Atmos

What They Say

The third season of Sky Deutschland’s Das Boot will be the first international series to be filmed in 8K and Dolby Atmos.

The show’s previous seasons were both shot in 4K UHD, and producers have announced they have agreed a deal with Sky Q and Samsung to make the show available in 8K for viewers watching on the electronic giant’s QLED 8K SmartTVs.

What We Think

The original Das Boot is one of my favourite films, especially with the German soundtrack. “Verdammt ” has become a family phrase! It’s one of the few (only one?) that I have bought in several formats. Normally I resent paying the full price again.

There is precious little 8K content yet, so every little helps! (BR)
