They have that on ps5. It is software based. It can make any soundbar sound like it has speakers behind you.

PS5 3D audio is quite an improvement but I honestly never felt sound coming from behind, just mostly from the sides

Usually that's the results of room acoustics. Software can't fix everything.

For sure, it's trying. You just can't fix everything with software.

That is exactly what it is. The new Tempest 3d engine.
