CS2 to Apex sensitivity converter
Enter your Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity and DPI to get the Apex Legends sens that turns the exact same distance. To convert by hand, use the same number: CS2 and Apex sensitivity are 1:1.
Formula
CS2 to Apex formula
Apex sens = CS2 sens × 1Counter-Strike 2 turns 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1; Apex Legends turns 0.022°. The ratio of the two, 0.022 ÷ 0.022, is the multiplier. It holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games.
Apex: Apex scopes use per-optic ADS multipliers on top of this value; this converts hipfire.

Converting from
Sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2
Also applies to CS:GO
Counter-Strike 2 keeps the classic Source yaw of 0.022° per count (the m_yaw value), which is why its numbers carry over to Apex and TF2 unchanged. Raw input is always on, the field of view is fixed, and scoped speed is set separately with zoom_sensitivity_ratio.
- Where to set it
- Settings → Keyboard / Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity, or
sensitivityin the console - Common range
- 0.8–1.5 at 800 DPI (35–65 cm/360°)
Converting to
Sensitivity in Apex Legends
Apex Legends runs on a heavily modified Source engine and shares CS2’s 0.022° yaw, so the same number turns the same distance in both. The FOV slider does not change hipfire turn speed, but ADS speed follows each optic’s zoom and can be tuned per optic once hipfire is set.
- Where to set it
- Settings → Mouse/Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity
- Common range
- 0.9–2 at 800 DPI (26–58 cm/360°)
Ranges compared
Where CS2 players land in Apex
Competitive CS2 players mostly use 0.8–1.5 at 800 DPI, which converts to Apex 0.8–1.5. Apex players typically sit at 0.9–2, so a typical CS2 sens lands inside the usual Apex range once converted.
FAQ
CS2 to Apex sens questions
How do I convert CS2 sens to Apex?
You don’t need to: at the same DPI, Counter-Strike 2 and Apex Legends use the same yaw (0.022° per count), so your CS2 sensitivity carries over unchanged. If you use a different DPI, enter both in the converter above.
What is CS2 1.2 in Apex?
CS2 1.2 at 800 DPI is Apex 1.2 at 800 DPI (exactly 1.2). Both need 43.3 cm of mouse movement for a full 360° turn.
Is CS2 sensitivity the same as Apex?
Yes. Both games turn 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1, so the same number turns the same distance.
Where do I change sensitivity in Apex Legends?
Settings → Mouse/Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity. Apex scopes use per-optic ADS multipliers on top of this value; this converts hipfire.
Why does Apex feel different at the converted sens?
The converted value matches your 360° distance exactly, but CS2 and Apex use different fields of view and camera setups, so targets can appear to move at a different speed on screen. Make sure mouse acceleration is off in both games and in Windows, then give it a few sessions before tweaking.
