CoD to Overwatch sensitivity converter
Enter your Call of Duty sensitivity and DPI to get the Overwatch 2 sens that turns the exact same distance. To convert by hand, use the same number: CoD and Overwatch sensitivity are 1:1.
Formula
CoD to Overwatch formula
Overwatch sens = CoD sens × 1Call of Duty turns 0.0066° per mouse count at sensitivity 1; Overwatch 2 turns 0.0066°. The ratio of the two, 0.0066 ÷ 0.0066, is the multiplier. It holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games.
CoD: Leave ADS sensitivity multiplier at 1.00 with the Relative transition to keep ADS consistent with hipfire.

Modern Call of Duty uses the same 0.0066° yaw as Overwatch 2 and Destiny 2 for hipfire. ADS speed depends on the ADS multiplier, Monitor Distance Coefficient and whether ADS field of view is Affected or Independent, so leave those at default until hipfire feels right.

- 4–8 at 800 DPI (22–43 cm/360°)
Converting to
Sensitivity in Overwatch 2
Overwatch 2 shares its 0.0066° yaw with Call of Duty and Destiny 2, so values move between those three unchanged. Sensitivity can be overridden per hero, and scoped heroes such as Widowmaker and Ashe add Relative Aim Sensitivity While Zoomed (default 30%) on top.

- Options → Controls → General → Mouse → Sensitivity
- Common range
- 4–7 at 800 DPI (25–43 cm/360°)
Ranges compared
Where CoD players land in Overwatch
Competitive CoD players mostly use 4–8 at 800 DPI, which converts to Overwatch 4–8. Overwatch players typically sit at 4–7, so a typical CoD sens lands inside the usual Overwatch range once converted.
FAQ
CoD to Overwatch sens questions
How do I convert CoD sens to Overwatch?
You don’t need to: at the same DPI, Call of Duty and Overwatch 2 use the same yaw (0.0066° per count), so your CoD sensitivity carries over unchanged. If you use a different DPI, enter both in the converter above.
What is CoD 6 in Overwatch?
CoD 6 at 800 DPI is Overwatch 6 at 800 DPI (exactly 6). Both need 28.9 cm of mouse movement for a full 360° turn.
Is CoD sensitivity the same as Overwatch?
Yes. Both games turn 0.0066° per mouse count at sensitivity 1, so the same number turns the same distance.
Where do I change sensitivity in Overwatch 2?
Options → Controls → General → Mouse → Sensitivity.
Why does Overwatch feel different at the converted sens?
The converted value matches your 360° distance exactly, but CoD and Overwatch use different fields of view and camera setups, so targets can appear to move at a different speed on screen. Make sure mouse acceleration is off in both games and in Windows, then give it a few sessions before tweaking.
