Convert Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity to Overwatch 2
Move to Overwatch 2 and your number grows, because it turns less per point than CS2 and needs a larger value to cover the same motion. A 2.0 in Counter-Strike 2 at 800 DPI equals 6.667 in Overwatch 2, at the same cm/360.

Why CS2 sensitivity gets bigger in Overwatch 2
CS2 runs the Source scale at 0.022 degrees per count, and Overwatch 2 plods along at 0.0066. That is why the Overwatch 2 reading lands about 3.33 times larger for the very same turn. Pull your Mouse Sensitivity from CS2, type the result into Horizontal Sensitivity under Options, Controls, and the converter corrects for any DPI difference.
The bigger figure is not a faster aim; cm/360 is what stays fixed, and it is the only measure that controls how far your hand travels for a full circle. eDPI between the two will not agree, so ignore it. Lock the distance and your flicks and tracking move over from CS2 intact. That same CS2 value also seeds your settings in CS:GO and Apex Legends, since all three share the Source scale.

FAQ
- How do you convert Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity to Overwatch 2?
- Multiply your Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity by 3.333 when the DPI stays the same. The converter does this for you and also adjusts if your DPI differs between the two games.
- Does my DPI have to match in both games?
- No. Enter each DPI separately. The converter solves for the target sensitivity that keeps your cm/360 the same, whatever DPI you run.
- Will my eDPI be the same in Overwatch 2?
- Usually not, and that is correct. Each game turns a different amount per sensitivity unit, so matching real aim distance (cm/360) means the eDPI numbers differ.
