star wars battlefront dolby atmos not working

Hello,

Dolby Atmos is not working in Star Wars Battlefront. The option under sound settings is greyed out and not selectable.

I am using Windows 10 x64 bit (latest build) and Nvdia 970 GTX (latest drivers) with hdmi going to Yamaha RX-2040 Dolby Atmos Amp. I can play Atmos movies normaly, but no option as advertised for the game.

Is Dolby Atmos working for anyone else?

Is there a workaround or a patch that can fix it?

  • I have an Onkyo Atmos receiver and same problem here. The only reason I found out this game had Atmos, was on the dolby page, so far EA has said virtually NOTHING about supporting Atmos in this game, makes me wonder if they borked it or not. sigh, wouldnt be the first time an EA product didnt do what it was supposed to, in fact, after BF4, it would be par for the course :P

    addon : Im sure that Dolby will LOVE that the first posts about their newest baby, Dolby Atmos, and the first game to incorporate it, are NEGATIVE posts. 

    addon 2 : I just went and tried to play thru the TUTORIAL and it CTD'd! lulz!!! omg..EA...have you released another POS and learnt nothing from BF4??? yes, i have the most up to date drivers, yes im running WX, 4820k 16G ram, 3x 2560x1080, 2x 280x, HDMI 1.4 to Onkyo TX-NR737, everything one would need to run this game full tilt, and a CTD is my first experience...sigh. 

    addon 3 : Ive let Dolby know directly via twitter. I'm not going to sit around and wait for EA to get around to anything. Their track record is complete * in regards to customer service, perhaps Dolby will 'persuade' them to do better and actually address it in a reasonable amount of time.

    addon 4 : I found this perusing around the EA forums...'Official word from EA: "Dolby Atmos support will be enabled in an upcoming patch for Star Wars Battlefront on PC.More updates to come."
