Overwatch to CS2 sensitivity converter
Enter your Overwatch 2 sensitivity and DPI to get the Counter-Strike 2 sens that turns the exact same distance. To convert by hand, divide your Overwatch sens by 3.3333 (or multiply by 0.3).
Formula
Overwatch to CS2 formula
CS2 sens = Overwatch sens × 0.3Overwatch 2 turns 0.0066° per mouse count at sensitivity 1; Counter-Strike 2 turns 0.022°. The ratio of the two, 0.0066 ÷ 0.022, is the multiplier. It holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games.

Converting from
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°)
Converting to
Sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2
Also applies to CS:GO
Counter-Strike 2 keeps the classic Source yaw of 0.022° per count (the m_yaw value), which is why its numbers carry over to Apex and TF2 unchanged. Raw input is always on, the field of view is fixed, and scoped speed is set separately with zoom_sensitivity_ratio.

- 0.8–1.5 at 800 DPI (35–65 cm/360°)
Ranges compared
Where Overwatch players land in CS2
Competitive Overwatch players mostly use 4–7 at 800 DPI, which converts to CS2 1.2–2.1. CS2 players typically sit at 0.8–1.5, so most Overwatch players land on the fast side in CS2. Plenty keep it that way: your muscle memory matters more than matching everyone else.
FAQ
Overwatch to CS2 sens questions
How do I convert Overwatch sens to CS2?
To keep the same feel, divide your Overwatch sens by 3.3333 (or multiply by 0.3). At the same DPI, Overwatch 5 equals CS2 1.5. If you play CS2 at a different DPI, enter both DPIs in the converter above and it compensates.
What is Overwatch 5 in CS2?
Overwatch 5 at 800 DPI is CS2 1.5 at 800 DPI (exactly 1.5). Both need 34.6 cm of mouse movement for a full 360° turn.
Is Overwatch sensitivity the same as CS2?
No. Overwatch turns 0.0066° per mouse count at sensitivity 1 and CS2 turns 0.022°, so the same number in CS2 is 3.33× faster. That is why you need to convert.
Where do I change sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2?
Settings → Keyboard / Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity, or sensitivity in the console.
Why does CS2 feel different at the converted sens?
The converted value matches your 360° distance exactly, but Overwatch and CS2 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.
