Stereo Only, no Surround Sound Support?

[Hostile_18]

The game will only detect 2.0 Stereo Support for some reason.

Yes it's not working as intended right now it seems. I have my windows set up for Dolby Atmos and it still only says stereo.

[meowlo]

Same. Windows is set to output 5.1, all channels are working, my avr is fine -- the game just won't let me change from stereo, I wonder if there's a way to force the setting change through an ini file or something.

EDIT: despite what the menu says, 5.1 sound seems to work fine. Dialogue is coming from the center channel, sounds happening around me are coming the correct channels as well. The menu lies.

Sound settings only gives 2.0 channel options in the menu.
I did try forcing the game audio to use the digital channel by optical cable and using a 7.1 surround headset and rebooting the game.
Hoping more options would be given, but did no effect.

Nixxes would have done a better job Porting this game i think like so many other succesfull console to pc masterpeaces ports before, like god of war and spiderman etc.
I would have liked for Sony to again let them do Ragnarok too

not that it's a bad port this time,
but would be better and have more polish overal.
i think Nixxes are king when it comes to delivering a good playstation to PC port.
and have less (minor) mistakes like typos left in game.
like the ingame menu message typo that still only mentions the console instead of PC as option if wanted more options.

My stereo shows atmos, so assuming this is more a bug in the UI...will see if actual audio is coming from surrounds

[laggerific]

Something definitely is up with the audio...regardless of what my stereo is reporting. And seeing issues with HDR saving. Seems like a good time to focus on the other games released this week and wait until Sony figures this ♥♥♥♥ out. Sony to PC is so hit and miss, but this felt like an obvious one to get right.

Except Jetpack Interactive ported both God of War and Ragnarok. Admittedly Nixxies have done some stunning ports, but they had nothing to do with either God of War ports.

ps5 version has the same issue

[Roie]

my reciver says dolby atmos...why is that?

[truthgoddess]

Yeah, was surprised to see it only detect stereo when my windows and avr is 5.1 and set up correctly.

[Roie]

no fix?

[rzn6jw]

Stereo on my 5.1 system too.

[truthgoddess]

I played for a while tonight. Even though it says stereo in game, it is playing 5.1, and seems mixed ok. Cutscene speech is coming from my center channel and rear channels are playing noises behind Daddy Kratos.

Same issue here, stuck on stereo

[msalad]
