How to Change Your Crosshair

Can Be Changed Under Reticle in Controls

If you want to change your crosshair, go to the Main Menu > Options > Controls and select the General tab. Once inside, you can create your own crosshair by clicking on the "Advanced" button under Reticle.

You can then experiment with the settings configuration to find which ones are the best crosshair for your preference!

Test Your Crosshair in Practice Range!

Once you finally change your crosshair to fit your preference, you can test it out by heading inside the Practice Range available in the Training mode to check if the crosshair works for you or not.

Change the Crosshair for Individual Characters

Overwatch 2 provides a way for players to customize the crosshair for each individual character since not all of them use the same weapon. Take advantage of this to apply crosshairs that fit best for longer, precise weapons to close-ranged weapons like shotguns.

To do this, go to your Main Menu > Options > Controls and under the General tab, click on the "Change Hero" located on the right side of the screen. Select the Hero you want their crosshair to change, and it should show the settings for that character.
