Yes Overwatch apparenly supports it over headphones

It's of limited use if you don't have speakers in the ceiling (or at ceiling height) as well. Yet it allows a more flexible speaker setup instead of the standard surround sound configuration. It adds a nice dilemma, do you go for quality speakers or quantity... 11 speakers and 2 subwoofers is quite the investment for the full (well rather half compared to cinema) Dolby Atmos experience.
