Ready to dive into Overwatch? If you already have, you might be wondering how to aim down your sights like you would in most shooter-oriented games. Well, for short, you cannot.

Much like sprinting, the game doesn’t give every character the ability to look down their sights. Only Widowmaker is able to, and this can be activated by pressing L2/LT/PC equivalent. As a sniper, she’ll look through her scope and be able to take shots with increased vision. And if you’re not Widowmaker, stop searching for the ‘aim down sights’ button. It’s not there. We’ll all be shooting from the hip on the battlefield.
