Sometimes we need a better way to take aim at our opponents, right? As much as it is nice to embrace our sniper rifle and gun down all enemies coming our way, there must be a better way! And luckily, there seem to be alternative aiming methods in the latest Call of Duty, so this guide is all about how to enable gyro aiming in Modern Warfare 2.

Motion controls have always been a bit of a salvation and also of a curse, but they are very interesting to use in first-person shooters. And by turning them on in Modern Warfare 2, you might be quickly able to simply move around your controller in space to take aim at your enemies.

So let us find out how to simply turn on this option, let’s take a look at how to enable gyro aiming in Modern Warfare 2.

How to enable gyro aiming in Modern Warfare 2

Just enter into options, go to settings, then choose “controller” and choose the advanced tab. Then go down to “gyro aiming” and turn it on.

There are also several other options you might want to take a look at. For example, it is possible to choose to aim it down sights or just keep it on all the time. It is also possible to adjust the sensitivity, both horizontally and vertically. Ideally, if you keep it on just “aim down sights”, you can move around normally with the analogue stick and switch to gyro when it comes time to aim precisely.

We hope this guide gives you a hand to have a better chance to take down your opponents, but we also recommend you take a look at our other Modern Warfare 2 guides like the best tacticals or how to see your kills in-game.
