In this quick Unity 2025 tutorial, I show you how I make a simple custom crosshair using Unity’s UI system. We start from scratch by creating a Canvas, adding a UI Image, and assigning any sprite you want—dot, classic cross, ring, or your own PNG. The key is centering it properly by setting the anchor and position to the middle of the screen, so it stays locked to the center across resolutions. After that, I take it one step further and turn it into a switchable crosshair system. I duplicate the crosshair Image a few times, give each one a different sprite, and then control everything with a clean CrosshairManager script. I use two public arrays (crosshairs + buttons), wire them up in the Inspector, and add button click listeners in a for-loop—making sure to store the index in a local variable so C# closures don’t break the mapping. When a button is clicked, I activate only the selected crosshair and disable the rest, and I default to crosshair 0 on start. It’s beginner-friendly, scalable, and super easy to expand.
