Crosshair Overlay for Any Game on Windows

One crosshair you control, across many games

Different games take very different approaches to aiming: some hide the crosshair on certain weapons, some swap to large reticles when you move, some only render a tiny dot, and some give you nothing at all. CrosshairEDGE solves that by drawing its own customizable crosshair on top of the game window, completely independent of in-game logic. You see the same shape, color, and size on every game where the overlay is allowed to render — which is most modern Windows games in borderless or windowed fullscreen mode.

Customizable aiming point that fits your style

The aiming point is built from up to nine layers, each with its own shape, color, outline, opacity, scale, blur, rotation, and gap. You can keep it minimal — a single dot, or a thin plus — or stack layers to build a more visible reticle for fast-paced shooters. Each preset is independent, so you can use a small subtle dot for one game and a high-contrast layered crosshair for another.

Game Auto-Switch: the right preset for the right game

Game Auto-Switch lets you bind a specific game executable to a specific preset. When that game is running, CrosshairEDGE can automatically switch to the matching preset, then switch back when the game closes. Combined with 20 preset slots and the F3 cycling hotkey, you can keep your favorite crosshairs ready without ever opening a settings panel mid-game.

Compatibility — what to expect

CrosshairEDGE is designed to work with most Windows games that support borderless fullscreen or windowed fullscreen mode. It does not need game integration and does not modify game files. Some games using exclusive fullscreen or restrictive anti-cheat systems may block normal Windows overlays. If the crosshair does not appear in a particular game, switch the game to borderless fullscreen first — that is almost always the fix.

If the crosshair does not appear, check these

• The game is in borderless fullscreen or windowed fullscreen mode.
• The crosshair is enabled (toggle with F1).
• The selected preset has visible segments and non-zero opacity.
• The app is running on the same monitor as the game.

Independent of the game's own crosshair

Because the overlay is purely on top of the game, it does not interfere with the in-game reticle. If a game shows its own crosshair, you can either hide it in the game's settings or simply position the CrosshairEDGE crosshair around it. Many players use Right-Click Hide to remove the overlay while aiming down sights, so the in-game scope or reticle takes over without any toggling.

Designed for Windows gamers

CrosshairEDGE is built for Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit), with hardware-accelerated rendering and DPI-aware scaling for 1080p, 1440p, and 4K monitors. Multi-monitor setups are supported — the overlay follows the active screen so it always lines up with your game.

Coming soon on Steam

CrosshairEDGE is planned to launch on Steam for $5.99 USD. Add it to your Steam wishlist so you don't miss the launch, and check the CrosshairEDGE homepage for the full feature list.
