π° What Happened
PlayStation players who earn every trophy get a Platinum Trophy. Xbox has achievements instead, but until now there was no reward for collecting them all in one game. That may be about to change.
An Xbox Insider in the Alpha Skip-Ahead test group found a new filter called 'Completed/Incomplete Mythic Achievement'. Turning it on showed only games that person had fully completed.
Xbox has not announced anything about Mythic Achievements or said when the feature might reach everyone. Polygon could not find the filter on its own console and has asked Xbox to explain.
π The Backstory
Xbox Insiders test early versions of new features before release. Insiders have revealed other upcoming Xbox plans this way, including a disc-to-digital program.
Achievements began on the Xbox 360 in 2005 and changed how players chase goals. Fans have asked for a full-completion reward for years. Test groups at other game companies also share news early, sometimes before a feature is finished.
π― Why It Matters
A completion badge gives players a reason to finish games they already own. It also brings Xbox closer to PlayStation's system, which matters to players who compare the two consoles.
