The ESP32 has a built-in 8-bit DAC. Digital to the analogue signal converter or analogue-digital converter or DAC is a device to convert digital signals with binary data into current or analogue voltage signals. For better sound quality, we can use an external I2S codec and amp. Adafruit I2S amp uses a MAX98357A IC. The MAX98357 is a low-cost, digital pulse-code modulation (PCM) input amplifier. The digital audio interface eliminates the need for I2C programming. This is an example :

There are audio libraries which supports parsing and decoding MOD, WAV, MP3, FLAC, MIDI, AAC, and RTTL files and playing them on an I2S DAC :
