The 20th Century Fox announced that The Revenant will be available both on Blu-ray and Ultra HD Blu-ray on April 19th.
Sadly, the press release mention only DTS Master Audio 7.1 for both discs, so it seems Dolby Atmos has been left out.
I updated the list of Ultra HD Blu-rays to add The Revenant.
To Bad, shame on Fox. The Revenant had the best Atmos track to date and I was really looking forward to this release. Hopefully the DTS X decoder on my Yamaha Aventage receiver will do a good object-based, multi-dimensional decoding job.
I still have a slight hope that the PR was wrong considering they just released Peanuts with Atmos, let’s keep our fingers crossed.
yes, i hope it too 😉
