HRTF (Head-Related Transfer Function) is a brief description of how the human ear picks up sound from a sound source, providing " simulated surround sound " that allows you to hear sound more accurately from all directions . Simply put, in video games, HRTF audio transforms the player's headset into a 3D sound field, helping the player locate the source of the sound within the game as if they were using a virtual reality headset .
In Valorant, the most important way to learn the position of your opponents and gain an edge over them is to listen to the voices. From talent voices to character voice lines to footsteps. Almost any action in the game makes a noise of its own. Being able to hear these voices fully will result in your favor.

Audio cues allow players to locate their enemies on the map with greater precision. With the HRTF feature enabled, players will be able to more accurately identify in-game sounds such as footsteps and abilities sounds in a 3D space with the help of their ears. The HRTF feature in Valorant has been specially designed to improve the audio experience of headphone users, so if you are getting sound from the speaker, this setting will not be very useful for you.
