Overwatch 2 is officially live, and since the very first moment of its launch a couple of days ago, the shooter has seen an incredible influx of players who are both new to and familiar with the franchise.

The game saw such a staggering spike in popularity that even today the servers are flooded, and players often have to wait in abysmally long queues just to get in a match.

Overwatch 2 has also been attracting players from other first-person shooters, mainly Valorant, Apex Legends, and Rainbow Six Siege. This is why some looking to try out the new Overwatch entry are a bit curious as to how they will be able to convert their sensitivity from one shooter to the next.

Players will be able to very easily convert the sensitivity from one of the shooters into Overwatch 2. However, there are a few things that they will be required to do first, and today’s guide, in particular, will go over how one can convert their sensitivity from Valorant to Blizzard’s new shooter.

To be able to convert custom sensitivity from Valorant to Overwatch 2, there are a few things that players will be required to do:

  • You must first make your way to certain third-party services like aiming.pro and gamingsmart, which offer some of the best solutions to help one convert their custom sensitivity from one shooter to the next. You will be able to use it seamlessly from both Valorant and Overwatch 2, and convert the mouse settings from one game to the other (vise versa).
  • After making your way to any of the two websites, you will be required to navigate to the Valorant option, which will prompt you to fill in the custom settings that they have for the game. It’s a very simple thing to do, and one will just have to replicate their mouse settings on the website.
  • In the Converter option, you will be required to choose Overwatch 2 since that is the game that you will be converting their sensitivity to. The website will then automatically convert the Valorant custom sensitivity to match that of Blizzard’s new shooter, which you can then replicate in the title.

  • After the settings results are in, you will be able to adjust the converted sensitivity further, to fine-tune it more to your liking. Once you are happy with the results, you will then be required to input the same details on the shooter's settings.

When it comes to competitive first-person shooters like Valorant and Overwatch 2, it’s crucial that players are comfortable with how their peripherals are set up, as features like sensitivity and key binding play a key role in how one experiences the game.

With these third-party websites, one might not be able to exactly replicate the comfort that they feel in Valorant. However, they can achieve something close to it in Blizzard’s latest shooter. Hence, there will be a brief period of adjustment needed for those new to the game to get more familiar with the mouse settings.
