Apex Legends to Overwatch 2 Sensitivity Converter
Apex Legends uses Modified Source (yaw=0.022), while Overwatch 2 uses Blizzard Custom (yaw=0.0066). Since Overwatch 2's yaw is lower, the converted sensitivity number will be higher. For example, Apex Legends sensitivity 2.5 equals Overwatch 2 8.333.
Conversion Formula
Engine Differences
Modified Source engine with identical hip-fire yaw to CS2. ADS sensitivity uses a separate multiplier.
Blizzard custom engine yaw=0.0066, about 1/3 of CS2, resulting in higher sensitivity numbers.

Apex Legends to Overwatch 2 Important Notes
Apex Legends (yaw=0.022) and Overwatch 2 (yaw=0.0066) have different yaw values. The conversion ratio is 3.3333. You cannot simply copy sensitivity numbers between them.
The sensitivity values differ significantly (over 3×). After conversion, verify the value falls within Overwatch 2's valid range (2–15).
Note: This tool converts hip-fire sensitivity only. Apex Legends has separate ADS (aim-down-sight) sensitivity settings that need to be adjusted independently in-game.
Before converting, ensure both games have Raw Input enabled and Windows mouse acceleration ("Enhance pointer precision") is turned off for accurate results.
After converting, practice in Overwatch 2's training range or casual mode for 15–30 minutes. Even with identical cm/360, different game visuals, frame rates, and movement speeds may feel slightly different.
Apex Legends to Overwatch 2 FAQ
Q. What is Apex Legends sensitivity 2.5 in Overwatch 2?
Apex Legends sensitivity 2.5 equals Overwatch 2 8.3333. Calculation: 2.5 × (0.022 ÷ 0.0066) = 8.3333. At 800 DPI, this corresponds to approximately 20.8 cm/360°.
Q. Why are Apex Legends and Overwatch 2 sensitivity numbers so different?
Because Apex Legends's yaw value is 0.022, while Overwatch 2's is 0.0066. The yaw value determines how many degrees of rotation each unit of sensitivity produces. Games with lower yaw values need higher sensitivity numbers to achieve the same physical turning speed.
Q. Do I need to change my DPI after converting?
No. Sensitivity conversion only involves changing the in-game sensitivity number. Keep your DPI the same. The conversion formula already accounts for yaw differences between games, ensuring cm/360° stays consistent at the same DPI.
Q. Can ADS sensitivity be converted between Apex Legends and Overwatch 2?
This tool converts base hip-fire sensitivity. ADS sensitivity is typically a multiplier of the base sensitivity, and different games use different multiplier systems that can't be directly cross-converted. After converting hip-fire sensitivity, manually adjust the ADS multiplier in Overwatch 2 to a comfortable range (typically 0.7–1.0).
Q. What is the conversion ratio from Apex Legends to Overwatch 2?
The conversion ratio is 3.3333 (0.022 ÷ 0.0066). Multiply your Apex Legends sensitivity by this ratio to get the Overwatch 2 equivalent. For example: sensitivity 0.5 × 3.3333 = 1.6667.
