What Surround Sound Formats Does the Wii U Support?

Wii U
Note
  • Not all games support surround sound.
    • If the system is being used in an application or game that does not support surround sound, the system will default to stereo sound.
  • You may need to update your Wii U to take full advantage of surround sound features.

The Wii U currently supports two surround sound formats:

  • Six-channel linear PCM audio
  • Dolby Pro Logic II (only in Wii Mode)

Our information on setting up surround sound may also be helpful.
