The latest system update for PlayStation 5, the September 13 Patch, introduces support for Dolby Atmos-enabled devices, including soundbars, TVs, and home theater systems.
Leveraging the previously available Tempest 3D AudioTech in various games, these titles will now support Dolby Atmos, enhancing immersion so you can enjoy the best possible sound the PS5 has to offer if you have compatible devices.
If you’re looking for a surround sound system that supports Dolby Atmos, we would recommend the Sony Bravia Theatre Quad or the Sonos Arc Ultra with Era 300s and a Sub Gen 3/4.
We’ll first provide a list of PS5 games that currently support Dolby Atmos. Following that, we’ll guide you through the steps to enable this feature in the settings menu on your PS5.
List of PS5 Games with Dolby Atmos
Fortunately, many games support Dolby Atmos on the PlayStation 5 due to the Tempest 3D Audio. PlayStation’s senior sound design supervisor, Loïc Couthier, confirmed on X (formerly known as Twitter) that all games featuring Tempest Audio will automatically support Dolby Atmos.
Courier also noted that games requiring a dedicated Atmos sound mix would need a patch. “There is an automatic Atmos mix for all existing games that support 3D Audio. For a bespoke Atmos mix made by the sound team, games would need a patch.” said Couthier.
Here’s the complete list of games on PS5 that will take advantage of a Dolby Atmos sound stage:

Do I need to change any settings to activate Dolby Atmos on PS5?
The PS5 doesn’t switch to Dolby Atmos by default; you must change some settings. Following these steps will enable Dolby Atmos on your PS5. Dolby Atmos might be displayed in its corresponding mobile app if you have a surround-sound system, such as a home theater or soundbar.
However, note that not all systems have associated mobile apps. If you have a BRAVIA Theatre Quad or Sonos Arc soundbar, you can check which codec is currently used on the mobile app for both systems.
- Navigate to [Settings] on your PlayStation 5.
- Scroll down and select [Sound].
- Choose [Audio Output] from the options.
- Now, click on [Audio Format (Priority)].
- Finally, from the available formats, select [Dolby Atmos].
