A Marvel Rivals crosshair can be created, changed, customised, and you can even import ones other people have made. It's more than just a cosmetic tweak as well because, for many characters, a good reticule can enhance their function. Precision heroes like Hawkeye and Black Widow can really benefit from tuned aiming options for example, and being able to modify your crosshair is just a nice player-friendly way to accommodate accessibility.

A custom crosshair won’t actually change skill level or gameplay in anyway but it can definitely help you aim better according to your preferences. To help you find an option that suits you, here’s how you can edit your crosshair in Marvel Rivals, import others, and use some pre-made reticules you may want to try.

And, while you're looking at aiming in general, you might have heard about Marvel Rivals mouse acceleration, so check out my guide there for more details on that.

Changing your reticle in Marvel Rivals is relatively easy to do and located in the Keyboard tab in Settings. Here you can look under the HUD section, where the first set of options revolve around customizing your crosshair.

The shape you want to build on is probably the most important decision you’ll make so to choose that, select the Reticle Type drop-down menu. This will let you choose between Circle, Crosshairs, Dot, and Circle and Crosshairs - try them all and figure out which one you like.

From here you'll be able to mold the crosshair further. There are options to adjust width, outline width, opacity, outline opacity, blur, center gap, circle radius, crosshair length, crosshair angle, and color.

Obviously there is a lot of choice here, so it's best to play with all the options outside of a game so you're not AFK while other people are playing. Instead, make adjustments in the practice range so you can try everything out without impacting other players.

If you can’t be bothered or aren’t confident to create your own crosshair in Marvel Rivals, the game lets you import and export crosshairs using a code players can share.

To import Marvel Rivals crosshairs go to the Keyboard tab in Settings and under the HUD section, look at Reticle Save. Select the drop-down menu and hit ‘add new save’ to get four options: delete a saved reticle, rename a saved reticle, import a reticle, or export your own reticle.

To import one with a code, simply hit Import Save on the Reticle Save row. You will then be prompted to input a reticle code. This will be a long line of characters and numbers that configure the crosshairs to replicate someone else’s settings.

It’s important to note that you can set different crosshairs for different heroes. To do so, at the top left of the settings, you will see a button that says ‘All Heroes’. To tweak a specific character's reticle only, hit this button and choose the character you want to change.

This is excellent for providing different reticles for characters who have different aiming needs. For example, having a dot is useful on a sniper character like Black Widow or Hawkeye where you want to aim for a character’s head. However, that may be a little small when you want to spray with Jeff the Land Shark, or shoot in cones like Star-Lord, where a circle might be of more use.

Here are a few basic Marvel Rivals crosshair codes you may want to use to import reticles into your own game:
