Apex and CS2 share one yaw, so your sensitivity stays the same number.
Apex and CS2 values cross-checked against independent sources on 20 October 2026.
How do I convert Apex sensitivity to CS2?
Apex and CS2 sensitivity are identical, so you keep the same number. Both games turn 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1, which means Apex 1.5 is CS2 1.5 at the same DPI, at 34.6 cm per 360° with an 800 DPI mouse.
- Find your Apex sensitivity in Settings → Mouse / Keyboard → Mouse Sensitivity.
- Multiply it by 1, or type it into the converter above with your DPI.
- In Counter-Strike 2, open Settings → Keyboard / Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity (or type sensitivity in the console) and enter the result.
- Keep the same mouse DPI, or enter your new DPI in the converter.
Going the other way, a typical CS2 setting of 1.2 is Apex 1.2, or 43.3 cm per 360° at 800 DPI.

Why Apex and CS2 numbers match
Apex Legends runs on Source (modified) and Counter-Strike 2 on Source 2. Both use the same yaw, so one number gives the same aim in both games.
Apex shares the Source-engine 0.022 yaw, so hipfire sensitivity is identical to CS2. ADS uses separate per-optic multipliers. Apex Legends grew out of the engine Respawn built for Titanfall 2, a heavily modified version of Source, which is why it kept Source’s 0.022 yaw.
Why does my converted sensitivity feel different?
- Field of view: a wider FOV makes the screen appear to move slower even at the same cm/360.
- Scoped and ADS aim: this matches hipfire only. Check CS2’s own zoom settings.
- Mouse acceleration: if Windows acceleration or a mouse app adds it, the same movement turns a different amount depending on speed. Turn it off.
Frequently asked questions
What is Apex 1.5 in CS2?
Apex 1.5 is CS2 1.5 at the same DPI. Both are 34.6 cm per 360° at 800 DPI.
What is the CS2 to Apex multiplier?
It is 1. Apex and CS2 share the same yaw, so the number does not change in either direction.
Does DPI change the Apex to CS2 multiplier?
No. The ×1 multiplier holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games. If you change DPI, divide by the ratio of new DPI to old DPI, or enter both values in the converter.
Where do I change sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2?
Go to Settings → Keyboard / Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity (or type sensitivity in the console). CS2 uses the same 0.022 yaw as CS:GO, so a CS:GO sensitivity carries over to CS2 unchanged.
