Apex to Overwatch 2 Sensitivity

Overwatch 2 sensitivity =
Apex sensitivity × 3.333333

Keep your DPI the same in both games. The multiplier is 0.022 ÷ 0.0066, the ratio of the two games' yaw, so it holds at every DPI.

How this conversion works

One multiplier from two yaw values

Apex → Overwatch 2 × 3.333333

Apex turns 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1. Overwatch 2 turns 0.0066°. The ratio of the two is the multiplier.

Yaw

Degrees per mouse count

Apex0.022°
Overwatch 20.0066°

Apex turns 3.33 times further per count, so Overwatch 2 needs a sensitivity 3.33 times higher for the same turn.

360° distance

A length you can measure

360 ÷ (0.022 × 1.114) = 14,689 counts
14,689 ÷ 800 DPI = 18.36 in = 46.64 cm

Divide 360° by the angle per count to get counts per turn, then divide by DPI to get inches.

Other match methods

360° distance or monitor distance

The chart matches 360° distance, which does not depend on field of view. Monitor distance matching (0%, 56.25%, 75%, 100%) depends on the FOV you set in Apex and Overwatch 2. The TrueSens app reads your FOV and shows every method side by side.

What this page can't do

This page is a reference chart. The parts that need your PC are in the free Windows app:

  • Reads your current sensitivity from Apex's config file, so you don't have to look it up.
  • Shows where Overwatch 2 stores the setting and keeps your value for next time.
  • Measures your real DPI. An 800 DPI mouse can really be 826, which changes your cm/360.
  • Draws 46.64 cm at true size on your screen after a one-time bank-card calibration.
  • Blind A/B feel test between your old feel and the converted Overwatch 2 value.

"Open in TrueSens" starts the installed app with Apex 1.114 → Overwatch 2 already filled in (truesens://convert?from=apex&to=overwatch-2&sens=1.114). If nothing opens, install the app first. Windows 10 and 11, x64, no ads, no account.

FAQ

Apex to Overwatch 2 sensitivity questions

How do I convert Apex sensitivity to Overwatch 2?

Multiply your Apex sensitivity by 3.333333 (0.022 ÷ 0.0066) and keep the same DPI. Apex 1.114 becomes Overwatch 2 3.713.

What is 1.114 Apex sensitivity in Overwatch 2?

3.713 at any DPI. At 800 DPI both settings turn you 360° with 46.64 cm of mouse movement.

Is the Apex to Overwatch 2 multiplier 3.33 or 3.333333?

The exact ratio is 0.022 ÷ 0.0066 = 3.333333. Rounding to 3.33 turns 1.114 into 3.710 instead of 3.713, a 0.10% difference.

Does DPI change the Apex to Overwatch 2 conversion?

No. The multiplier is the same at 400, 800 or 1600 DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games. DPI only changes your cm/360.

Should I match 360 distance or monitor distance from Apex to Overwatch 2?

360 distance keeps full turns and flicks identical and does not depend on field of view, so the chart on this page uses it. Monitor distance matching depends on the FOV you play with; the TrueSens app reads it from your settings and gives you that value too.

How do I set my converted sensitivity in Overwatch 2?

Enter 3.713 as the mouse sensitivity in Overwatch 2's settings. The free TrueSens app for Windows shows where the setting lives and keeps your values for every game.

How do I convert Overwatch 2 sensitivity to Apex?

Multiply your Overwatch 2 sensitivity by 0.3 (0.0066 ÷ 0.022). Overwatch 2 3.713 becomes Apex 1.114.
