Rainbow Six Siege to Overwatch 2 Sensitivity Converter

How Rainbow Six Siege to Overwatch 2 sensitivity conversion works

Overwatch’s base sensitivity and Siege’s horizontal slider can be matched by turn distance. Siege’s custom config multiplier and Overwatch’s hero overrides are the first settings to inspect if a correct-looking result fails a physical turn test.

At equal DPI, multiply your Rainbow Six Siege setting by 0.86812. To reverse the conversion, divide by that factor. The number changes because the two games interpret sensitivity units differently; the distance travelled by your mouse is the quantity being matched.

Target sens = source sens × 0.86812 × source DPI ÷ target DPI

For example, 10 in Rainbow Six Siege at 800 DPI becomes approximately 8.68118 in Overwatch 2 at 800 DPI. Both describe 19.95 cm for one complete horizontal turn before rounding. Keep the unrounded value in the tool if you plan to swap directions again.

The first two rows keep the source setup fixed and change only the target DPI. The third changes source sensitivity. This separates a hardware-DPI change from an in-game sensitivity change, which is useful when comparing two saved configurations.

Settings to check in each game

Rainbow Six Siege

Options > Controls > Mouse Sensitivity Horizontal

These examples assume MouseSensitivityMultiplierUnit=0.02. A downloaded config or an old personal tweak may change that value. For a target Siege result, multiply the default result by 0.02 divided by your custom multiplier. For a source Siege value, first normalize it by multiplying by your custom multiplier divided by 0.02.

Overwatch 2

Options > Controls > General > Mouse > Sensitivity

Use the base mouse sensitivity and check whether the selected hero overrides it. The 0.0066 scale is numerically finer than Valorant or CS2, so compare physical distance rather than the size of the setting. Scoped hero controls are independent from the hipfire conversion.

FOV and ADS: why these games can still feel different

A full-turn match does not promise equal movement across the screen. A different field of view, aspect ratio or camera perspective can alter the apparent speed of a target. Compare the same physical mouse travel first, then decide whether a different visual feel needs a personal adjustment.

Rainbow Six Siege and Overwatch 2 also keep some aiming controls separate from their base horizontal setting. This tool does not calculate a monitor-distance match, a scoped multiplier, controller aim or vertical sensitivity. Apply the result to the named setting, then evaluate those other controls independently.

To verify the transfer, mark a starting point on the mousepad and move horizontally until the camera completes a turn. Repeat in both games with acceleration and game-specific modifiers accounted for. If space is limited, compare half-turns using half the reported cm/360 distance. Menu rounding can cause a small mismatch; a large mismatch calls for checking DPI, the input unit and game settings.
