A first-person shooter places a premium on accurate aiming. Even while different characters in Overwatch 2 have different levels of challenge and play styles, you still need at least some level of accurate aiming to get the most out of each hero.
Keeping this in mind, you might want to think about changing the reticle on your crosshairs. When you do, please refer to the following for our suggestions for the optimal settings to apply.
Settings for the crosshair reticle that are suggested and best for Overwatch 2
Before we get started, we strongly suggest going through all of your heroes and assigning individual reticles to each of them.
Although there are basic configurations that should be present on all of them, how those configurations are used will vary greatly depending on the character that is now being simulated. Your decisions will impact everything that happens from here on out. Experiment with your favorite heroes in different settings and find which one you enjoy the most.
The following are the recommended settings for all heroes in general.
- Type: Default
- Display Accuracy: On (On)
- Green, or any other color that will help you stand out against the background, is the recommended choice for the color.
Avoid using colors like white, black, and blue. - The thickness is one.
- 15 for the length of the crosshairs
- Center Gap – 30
- Between eighty and one hundred percent opacity
- Opacity is the same thing as Outline Opacity.
- Dot Size – 6

- Scaling with Increasing Resolution – On
