How to change Crosshair in Overwatch 2

Apart from good game strategy or in-detailed knowledge about heroes/maps, one of the most vital criteria to excel in a tactical FPS game like Overwatch 2 is to have a good crosshair that helps you translate your true aiming potential onto the screen. While the default crosshairs for each hero are great, to begin with, it is always advisable to customize and select a crosshair manually. To change your crosshair in Overwatch 2, visit the Reticle section under the Controls tab.
