Today, the recent achievements update featuring Steam Achievement Sets and a new achievements page, is available to all Steam users. Achievement Sets are ideal for organizing achievements within a game, making it easier for players to track their progress and discover new achievements as games add them. They also allow games to add new achievements, or new DLC with achievements, without breaking prior game completion. You can read the full blog post here , but here's a quick summary... Track progress by achievement set - You can track progress across each achievement set in a game, each with their own progress bar and trophy. Keep game completion intact - If new achievements are added to a game, it won't break previously completed sets or take away your game completion. DLC achievements - Achievements can now be tied to DLC and can be organized into their own sets, with progress reflected separately from the base game. Complete games or sets with retired achievements - Developers can archive or retire achievements and sets when they're no longer available, preserving them for players who earned them without affecting future completion for everyone else. We've also revamped the achievements page to bring together overall game progress, individual set progress, achievement details, Global Stats, and expanded search and filtering. Enjoy competing with friends? Players can now compare their achievements progress with up to three friends, based on a more accurate total achievement count. Throughout the beta, we've continued to make improvements based on feedback from both players and developers, and we'll continue to do so. We'd like to thank everyone who participated and took the time to share their thoughts. Are you a game developer interested in seeing how easy it is to add achievement sets?
