Black crosshairs in VALORANT are very good at keeping your focus on the enemy agents rather than a colorful crosshair in the center of your screen. This is an all black crosshair VALORANT guide. So without further ado, this is how to make crosshair black in VALORANT!

You need to get yourself to the "Settings" of VALORANT, which is in the top left corner, as you probably already know. From that, hit the "Crosshair" button, and then follow that by selecting the "Primary" button afterwards.

Do you want the best black crosshair VALORANT has to offer? If the answer is yes, then make yourself a Crosshair Profile and name it as you wish! We went with "All Black", but you can set the name to whatever you like.

This also makes things a lot easier in the future if you want to switch between this crosshair and another one! We also have a guide for the best crosshairs in VALORANT, so you can find the perfect one for you!

You might think the color needs to be set to black, but when you go to do this, you will see that black isn’t an option! So for now, leave the color as whatever you want - it won’t affect the black crosshair itself.

Crosshair Settings

Crosshair

Black Crosshair VALORANT - Crosshair Section Settings
Black Crosshair VALORANT - Crosshair Section Settings
  • Outlines - Off
  • Outline Opacity - 1
  • Outline Thickness - 2
  • Center Dot - Off
  • Center Dot Opacity - 0
  • Center Dot Thickness - 1
  • Override Firing Error Offset With Crosshair Offset - Off
  • Override All Primary Crosshairs With My Primary Crosshair - Off

Inner Lines

After setting your Crosshair section settings to the ones we have, you’ll scroll down to find the "Inner Lines" section of the Valorant black crosshair settings.

These settings are nice and easy - drag them all down to 0! Turning the Inner Lines off means that the white blocks inside the crosshair do not appear when you are using the crosshair - keeping the dark theme.

  • Show Inner Lines - On
  • Inner Line opacity - 0
  • Inner Line Length - 0
  • Inner Line Thickness - 0
  • Inner Line Offset - 0
  • Movement Error - Off
  • Movement Error Multiplier - Deactivated because of Movement Error being turned off
  • Firing Error - Off
  • Firing Error Multiplier - Deactivated because of Firing Error being turned off

Outer Lines

The third and final step in this small black crosshair VALORANT guide is to sort out your "Outer Lines" settings. Whilst these aren’t as simple as the "Inner Lines" settings, it hasn’t exactly been hard so far!

If you want the VALORANT black crosshair to be bigger and transparent, we suggest increasing the "Outer Line Length". This will allow you to see through your crosshair, having purely just black lines as your crosshair!

  • Show Outer Lines - On
  • Outer Line opacity - 1
  • Outer Line Length - 2
  • Outer Line Thickness - 2
  • Outer Line Offset - 0
  • Movement Error - Off
  • Movement Error Multiplier - Deactivated because of Movement Error being turned off
  • Firing Error - Off
  • Firing Error Multiplier - Deactivated because of Firing Error being turned off

It is as simple as that! For an all-black crosshair, VALORANT makes this relatively easy, considering that black is not a selectable color at first!

Sometimes a black crosshair can be a nice change, especially if you use a Yellow, Green or Cyan one normally! So if you haven’t tried this crosshair out, give it a go!

Oh, and if you want to make the process ten times easier, just get the black crosshair VALORANT code from the image below, and follow the guide on how to import it into VALORANT!

As we just mentioned, the black crosshair VALORANT code is below, but if you don’t know how to import a VALORANT crosshair, here is a brief rundown!

  1. Copy the black crosshair Valorant code from the box below
  2. Next to where you created your crosshair profile, press "Import Profile Code"
  3. Simply paste the code in using Control + V and press "Import"

This is one of the best features that Riot Games has decided to add into the game. A good crosshair is so crucial to stomping the enemy team, you’re bound to want to try out those of the pros! For example, you can copy Shroud's crosshair and use it as your own.

The import code for the black crosshair we love is:

  • 0;P;c;8;t;2;o;1;d;1;b;1;z;1;a;0;0t;0;0l;0;0o;0;0a;0;0f;0;1o;0;1a;0;1m;0;1f;0

There you have it! The full, detailed, and comprehensive how to get a black crosshair in VALORANT guide. Whilst we think it would be so much easier if Riot Games made black a selectable color as a crosshair, that is not the case - so until then, this will do perfectly!

We think this is the best black crosshair VALORANT has to offer, and whilst it might just look like someone has taken a Sharpie to your screen, you’re bound to rack up the montage moments!

Even after switching to a black crosshair you decide that it is simply not for you, check out our VALORANT color codes guide to see what your options are in the game.

My main games are VALORANT and League of Legends, so you could say that I am at the beck and call of Riot Games! I have worked previously for a few different websites, doing various roles, such as writing, editing, and even voiceovers, but here at THESPIKE, I am an out-and-out article writer, so I can really get as much content out as I can! I graduated with my Esports degree with a 2:1, and a desire to keep going, so this was a perfect step for me, but I still can't get enough of League of Legends when I'm free.
