Does Valorant support spatial audio?

HRTF in Valorant is a set of audio enhancements that are being added as part of patch 2.06 to improve spatial audio.

Should I use spatial sound for gaming?

Stereo sound is usually better for games like competitive shooters. In other situations like racing sims, flight sims, or open-world games, surround sound could add to the immersion. Also, many of those games were designed to work well with surround sound setups, either a true or virtual experience.

Is Valorant better with surround sound?

At this time, Valorant does not support 7.1 surround sound capabilities. Riot Games currently mixes the game in stereo, which means that players won't be able to tell the difference between sound coming a few degrees to the front and the back.

Does spatial audio improve quality?

The two main things to consider when it comes to spatial audio are the improved sound quality as well as enhanced safety while out and about. By not compromising on either of the two elements, you can enjoy your favorite sounds uninterrupted.
