### Steam’s Achievement Sets: A New Feature for Completionists<\/p>\n

Steam has introduced an innovative beta feature tailored for gamers who strive to complete every aspect of their favorite titles. Recognizing the ongoing demands of completionists, this update allows achievements to be grouped into sets defined by developers. This segmentation aims to simplify the tracking of progress, particularly for games that continuously evolve through downloadable content (DLC) and expansions.<\/p>\n

Valve articulated the necessity of this feature in their announcement, explaining, \u201cGames today live longer than ever, continuing to receive updates through new DLC, expansions, and seasons. But achievements added with new game content can be hard to discover and can accidentally break the completion status of players who have already finished the game. We have designed Achievement Sets to help address these types of issues.\u201d<\/p>\n

### How Achievement Sets Work<\/p>\n

With Achievement Sets, developers can categorize achievements into distinct collections within the overarching total. Each collection features its own progress tracking, aiding players in understanding what they\u2019ve completed and what remains. For instance, developers might separate single-player achievements from multiplayer ones, helping players target specific gameplay modes to enhance their completion rates.<\/p>\n

Additionally, for titles that implement seasonal content, temporary sets can be established. These sets will only display active achievements corresponding to specific time-limited events or content, thus ensuring players are not left searching for trophies that are no longer attainable.<\/p>\n

### Supported Games<\/p>\n

As of the launch of this feature, several games have adopted Achievement Sets, including:
\n– Against the Storm
\n– Age of Wonders 4
\n– American Truck Simulator
\n– Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4
\n– Crusader Kings 3
\n– Dredge
\n– Euro Truck Simulator 2
\n– Forza Horizon 5
\n– Flock Around
\n– He is Coming
\n– Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight
\n– Left 4 Dead 2
\n– Portal 2
\n– PowerWash Simulator
\n– PowerWash Simulator 2
\n– Team Fortress 2
\n– Victoria 3 <\/p>\n

This list reflects a diverse range of genres, appealing to various gaming communities.<\/p>\n

### Enhanced Achievements Page<\/p>\n

Along with the new Achievement Sets, Valve is beta testing a redesigned achievements page. This update presents a comprehensive overview of players’ overall progress, along with detailed insights for each achievement set. Now, global statistics\u2014showing completion rates for individual achievements\u2014can be toggled on this page rather than navigating to a separate section. Additionally, the search functionality has been enhanced with filters for specific achievement sets and the ability to view locked or unlocked achievements. The new features also include a comparative option, allowing players to assess their achievement totals against up to three friends.<\/p>\n

### How to Access the New Features<\/p>\n

Players eager to explore the new Achievement Sets or the improved achievements page can join the Steam Client Beta. Instructions for opting into the beta program are available on Steam\u2019s support page.<\/p>\n

In conclusion, Steam’s latest feature represents a thoughtful response to the needs of completionists, providing clearer pathways to track achievements amidst a landscape of ever-evolving game content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Steam has a new feature in beta aimed at helping completionists feel like they’ve got a bit more of a handle on their never-ending quests to 100% games whose trophy lists keep on growing and evolving. Steam achievements can now be grouped into sets determined by the developers, creating a means of separating off the likes of DLC trophies from the base game’s to-do list, thereby making it clearer what you’ve done so far and where you might want to focus next.<\/p>\n
