SteamVault Changelog

A full Cities: Skylines walkthrough is live — all 135 achievements, every one keyed to the real Steam achievement name, with the eight achievements Steam hides marked as unverified rather than guessed. Five new franchise collections joined the badge list: Hello Neighbor, Expeditions, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Deliver Us and Port Royale, every game price-checked and achievement-checked before it went in. There is also a new curated Best Rhythm Games on Steam list covering Crypt of the NecroDancer, Hi-Fi RUSH, Metal: Hellsinger, Rhythm Doctor and more. Behind the scenes the achievement catalogue grew by 1,414 games to 48,629.

The What’s Next "Easiest overall" view used to only look at your most-played games. Now it covers every game you own. The trick: global unlock rates are the same for everyone, so SteamVault caches each game’s most-common achievements once and shares that across all members — meaning your board is computed from your whole library without a giant per-visit fan-out. Huge libraries fill in over a couple of refreshes as the cache warms, then it’s instant. Refresh your profile and open What’s Next → Easiest overall to see your genuinely-quickest wins across everything you play.

Today's content drop: a complete 61-achievement guide for Two Point Hospital, the management sim whose achievement list runs from curing your very first patient all the way to holding first place in every league table at once for three straight months. It covers the whole Gold Star ladder from 15 stars up to 108, the world-class staff training goals, the two R.E.M.I. X remix sets, the long grinds like 100 ghosts captured and 50 marketing campaigns, and the DLC-specific hospitals - Close Encounters, Off The Grid, Culture Shock, A Stitch In Time and Speedy Recovery - each flagged so you know what you need to own before chasing them. The really awkward ones get honest treatment too: the wave runs at Mudbury Festival and Topless Mountain, the Yesterizer throughput target and the four-illness cure in Clockwise-above-Thyme. Seven of Two Point Hospital's achievements are hidden on Steam with no published description, and rather than guess at their triggers we have marked each one as unverified. Five new Collections to earn badges in - MotoGP (all thirteen official releases from 13 to 26), MXGP, Hot Wheels Unleashed, Super Monkey Ball and Torment. Plus a new curated ranking, Best Open World Games on Steam, running from Elden Ring and The Witcher 3 through Red Dead Redemption 2, Skyrim, Cyberpunk 2077, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, No Man's Sky and Subnautica. The achievement catalogue also grew by 1,813 games, taking it past 47,000.

Today's content drop: a complete 115-achievement guide for Titan Quest Anniversary Edition, the ARPG whose achievement list quietly spans three difficulties and two expansions. It covers the full run of named campaign bosses across Greece, Egypt, the Orient and the Norse lands, the crafting chain from Lesser through Greater to Divine artefacts, the relic and charm collection goals, the fiddly skill-specific ones like landing Phantom Strike on six enemies or keeping twelve asleep at once, and the genuinely brutal end of the list - the nine mastery-specific Legendary clears, the zero-death runs on Normal, Epic and Legendary, the sub-20-hour three-difficulty speedrun and the half-million kill count. Eight of Titan Quest's achievements are hidden on Steam, and rather than invent triggers for them we have marked each one as unverified, along with the optional bosses that have to be found rather than followed on a quest marker. Five new Collections to earn badges in - La-Mulana, Axiom Verge, Super Meat Boy, Defense Grid and Crypt of the NecroDancer. Plus a new curated ranking, Best CRPGs on Steam, running from Baldur's Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin 2 through Disco Elysium, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, Rogue Trader, Planescape: Torment and UnderRail. The achievement catalogue also grew by 2,321 games, taking it past 45,000.

Today's content drop: a complete 115-achievement guide for Frostpunk, which has one of the most demanding achievement lists on Steam once you get past the scenario completions. It covers all six scenarios and their Hard and Survivor Mode variants, the Endurance and Endless targets from 50 days up to the Ultramarathon Extreme run, the city-building oddities like finishing a run with no Steam Hubs, no medical buildings or no Tents at all, the settlement diplomacy achievements for both the loyal and the exploitative routes, and the long list of Last Autumn construction restrictions. Frostpunk hides nineteen of its achievement descriptions, and rather than guess at those triggers we have flagged each one as unverified. Five new Collections to earn badges in - PlatinumGames (Bayonetta, Vanquish, Metal Gear Rising, The Wonderful 101, NieR:Automata and Sol Cresta), Telltale Games, Surgeon Simulator, Rivals of Aether and Nidhogg. Plus a new curated ranking, Best Puzzle Games on Steam, from Portal 2 and Baba Is You through Return of the Obra Dinn, The Witness, Opus Magnum, COCOON and Patrick's Parabox. The achievement catalogue also grew by 1,133 games.

Today's content drop: a complete 51-achievement guide for Oxygen Not Included, Klei's colony sim where the achievements double as a roadmap through the whole game - the early plumbing and ration milestones, the cycle-100 and cycle-365 survival markers, the ranching and power goals, and the genuinely punishing end-game ones like cooling a building to 6 Kelvin, holding 25+ morale in a rocket for ten cycles, or taming one of every critter species. The Colony Imperative achievements point you at the in-game objective text rather than guessing at requirements that shift between versions. Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in - Zachtronics (thirteen engineering puzzlers from SpaceChem to Last Call BBS), Klei Entertainment, the X space-sim series, Tomorrow Corporation and ATOM RPG. Plus a new curated ranking, Best Survival Games on Steam, from Subnautica and Rust through The Long Dark, Project Zomboid, Green Hell and Enshrouded. The achievement catalogue also grew by 2,205 games, almost all of them recent Steam releases.

Today's content drop: a complete 102-achievement guide for Rust, one of the most-played games on Steam and one that has never had a proper achievement walkthrough here. It covers the whole early-game crafting chain from your first rock to a locked tool cupboard, the resource grinds, the monument runs (Excavator, Cargo Ship, underwater labs, Bandit Camp poker), the newer ocean content, and the awkward group ones like Rust Air and Cool Kids Club that need four or five people. Rust hides twelve of its achievement descriptions and we have marked those as unverified rather than inventing triggers. Six new franchise Collections to earn badges in - Monster Train, The Binding of Isaac, Arma, Hard West, Red Orchestra / Rising Storm and Everspace. Plus a new curated ranking, Best Turn-Based Tactics Games on Steam, running from XCOM 2 and Into the Breach through Jagged Alliance 3, BATTLETECH, Invisible Inc. and Tactical Breach Wizards. The achievement catalogue also grew by around 2,000 games.

Two quality-of-life fixes on the profile. The Achievements tab now loads more games automatically as you scroll — no more clicking "Load more" (the button stays as a manual fallback). And the What’s Next "Easiest overall" view is much richer: instead of one achievement per game from a small live-fetched set, it now shows the genuinely easiest unearned achievements across your most-played games (multiple per game, sorted by global unlock %), computed during your profile build so it loads instantly. Refresh your profile to populate the new list.

Today's content drop: a full 121-achievement guide for Dead Cells, the roguevania that everyone bounces off once and then plays for 200 hours — every biome-reach unlock, the runes that open new routes, the boss kills, and the fiddly ones like beating the Scarecrow without touching a mushroom or letting your Leghugger finish an Armored Shrimp. Dead Cells hides roughly a third of its achievement descriptions, and rather than guess those triggers we have said so plainly on each one. Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Dungeon Defenders, Puyo Puyo, Bridge Constructor, Poly Bridge and Myst. Plus a new curated ranking, Best Grand Strategy Games on Steam, from Crusader Kings III and Europa Universalis IV through Stellaris, Hearts of Iron IV and Victoria 3. The achievement catalogue also grew by 767 games, almost all of them brand-new Steam releases.

One of the most-requested features. The A-Z Challenge: take one game to 100% for each letter of the alphabet within a single calendar year. Because SteamVault already knows when each of your games hit 100%, your board fills in automatically and retroactively — join late in the year and everything you've already done still counts. For every letter you still need, it suggests the game in your library you're closest to finishing, so you always know your next target. Opt in on the new /a-z page (in the nav under More) and it shows on your profile with a live A-Z strip. You can flip between years too, to see past runs.

Today's content drop: a full 35-achievement guide for A Plague Tale: Requiem, the plague-and-rats story-stealth sequel, covering every weapon and gear upgrade tree, the Aggressive, Prudence and Opportunism skill grinds, and all the collectibles (flowers, feathers, souvenirs and secret chests) with the hidden story achievements flagged honestly rather than guessed. Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — A Plague Tale, Gungeon (Enter and Exit the Gungeon), Aragami, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl and Coffee Talk — plus a new curated ranking, Best Racing Games on Steam, from Forza Horizon 5 and Assetto Corsa to DiRT Rally 2.0, BeamNG.drive, Wreckfest and art of rally.

Today's content drop: a full 33-achievement guide for Command & Conquer Remastered Collection, covering both Tiberian Dawn and Red Alert plus their expansion mission packs — the cumulative build-count grinds (infantry, tanks, aircraft, navy, superweapons), the Ion Cannon finish on the Temple of Nod, the Jukebox and capture achievements, and the brutal hardest-difficulty campaign runs. Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — SaGa (the Romancing SaGa and SaGa Frontier games), Fatal Frame, Pac-Man, Earth Defense Force and Bomberman. Plus a new curated ranking, Best Survival Horror Games on Steam, from the Resident Evil 2 and Silent Hill 2 remakes to Alien: Isolation, SOMA, Signalis and Fatal Frame.

Today's content drop: a full 128-achievement guide for Dyson Sphere Program, the interstellar factory builder, covering every power and production milestone, the matrix production rates, Dark Fog combat, the exploration finds (black holes, neutron stars, reversed-axis planets) and the tough challenge runs like the sub-10-hour completion and the no-Foundation and no-Solar-Sail restrictions. Four new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Legend of Grimrock, BloodRayne, Zeno Clash and Spelunky — plus a new curated ranking, Best Factory and Automation Games on Steam, from Factorio and Satisfactory to Captain of Industry, Techtonica and Mindustry. We also added around 250 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

Today's content drop: a full 35-achievement guide for Paper Trail, the fold-the-world puzzle adventure, covering every region clear from Home to City, all nine origami collection sets, and the no-hints and under-four-hours completion runs (the hidden story achievements are flagged honestly rather than guessed). Five new Collections to earn badges in — Rusty Lake, Amanita Design (Machinarium, Botanicula and the Samorost games), Higurashi When They Cry, Leisure Suit Larry and the Blackwell series — plus a new curated ranking, Best Point-and-Click Adventure Games on Steam, from Grim Fandango and Day of the Tentacle to Unavowed, Thimbleweed Park and NORCO.

The profile Stats tab got a big expansion (and now holds Completion as a sub-tab, so it's one place for all your numbers). New up top: achievements-per-day for the last 30/60/90 days (toggle), a day-of-week breakdown that calls out the day you unlock the most, and an hour-of-day chart showing your peak grinding time — all timezone-aware if you've set yours. Plus headline stats: total for the window, average per day, your best single day, and your longest/current streak. The existing completion distribution, rarity breakdown and top-games lists live under the same tab. Activity charts fill in after your next profile refresh.

Today's content drop: a 28-achievement guide for Pizza Tower, covering the per-level challenges (John Gutter combos, Bloodsauce Dungeon no-damage runs, the WAR gauntlet), the full S-rank set across all five worlds, and the P-rank grind, with the hidden secret achievements flagged honestly rather than guessed. Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Atelier (fifteen games across the Arland, Dusk and Mysterious lines), Yu-Gi-Oh!, Toukiden, Might & Magic and Disciples — plus a new curated ranking, Best Cozy Games on Steam, from Stardew Valley and Spiritfarer to Unpacking, Dorfromantik, Coffee Talk and Little Kitty, Big City. We also added 280 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

Today's content drop: a full 20-achievement guide for Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons, covering the Crowd Control combo tiers, token grinding, the two endings and all four Mission 4 gang-leader fights (uncertain triggers are hedged, not guessed). Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Train Sim World, Steins;Gate, AI: The Somnium Files, Double Dragon and RIDE — plus a new curated ranking, Best JRPGs on Steam, from Persona 5 Royal and Final Fantasy VII Remake to Octopath Traveler, Sea of Stars and Chained Echoes. We also added 2,292 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — System Shock, Story of Seasons (including the Doraemon crossovers), Attack on Titan, Warriors Orochi and Samurai Warriors — plus a new curated ranking, Best Co-op Games on Steam, from It Takes Two and Split Fiction to Deep Rock Galactic, Helldivers 2 and Overcooked 2. We also added 1,471 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

Today's content drop: a full 55-achievement walkthrough for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, mapping the whole journey from breaking your first enemy and Gustave's Overcharge to the level 33/66/99 milestones, the Axon boss fights and the music-record and journal collectible hunts. Four new franchise Collections to earn badges in — the MudRunner off-road sims (MudRunner, SnowRunner, Expeditions), Grandia, Utawarerumono, and the Fate action games (Samurai Remnant, EXTELLA, EXTELLA LINK, and the remasters) — plus a new curated ranking, Best Immersive Sim Games on Steam, from Prey and Dishonored 2 to the Deus Ex games, System Shock and Weird West. We also added 1,054 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

A community request (Morikami): consoles have had setlists for years where clearing a themed group of games earns a badge, but no PC site did it. Now SteamVault does. Challenge Sets are cross-franchise setlists — 100% every game in a set and you earn its title on your profile. Launching with five, including the exact examples suggested: Jack of All Trades (six simulators), Bonafide Heister (Payday 2 & 3, GTA V, Monaco, Teardown), Soulslike Survivor (Dark Souls III, Sekiro, Elden Ring, Lies of P), Roguelike Ruler (Hades, Slay the Spire, Risk of Rain 2, Balatro, Vampire Survivors) and Pixel Perfectionist (Celeste, Cuphead, Hollow Knight, Ori and the Will of the Wisps). Browse them all at /challenges, and track your progress on your profile under Milestones & Badges. More sets to come.

Today's content drop: a full 50-achievement walkthrough for Monster Hunter Wilds, covering the whole hunt from your first mount and capture to the brutal endgame crown grinds, Hunter Rank 100 and the 100-quest multiplayer haul. Five new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Rune Factory, the Mana series, Freedom Planet, Momodora, and Under Night In-Birth — plus a new curated ranking, Best Farming Sim Games on Steam, from Stardew Valley and My Time at Sandrock to Coral Island, Sun Haven and Story of Seasons. We also added 702 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

Today's content drop: a full 50-achievement walkthrough for Jagged Alliance 3, covering the mercenary tactics grind from headshots and overwatch chains to the punishing Ironman, Lone Wolf and Pacifist campaign challenges. Four new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Jagged Alliance, Space Hulk (the Warhammer 40K corridor-crawlers), Bus Simulator, and MechWarrior — plus a new curated ranking, Best Tower Defense Games on Steam, from Bloons TD 6 and Kingdom Rush to They Are Billions and Mindustry. We also added 538 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

By request from Reddit: on your profile's Collection Badges, hover any collection and hit the × to hide it — handy for franchises you have no intention of completing, so your badge wall shows only what you're actually working toward. Hidden collections tuck into a collapsible list at the bottom where you can unhide them anytime. It's per-browser and instant, and your earned count still reflects every collection.

Today's content drop: a full 44-achievement walkthrough for Cities: Skylines II, four new franchise Collections to earn badges in — Supergiant Games (Bastion through Hades II), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, River City, and Ghostbusters — and a new curated ranking, Best City Builder Games on Steam, spanning Cities: Skylines, Frostpunk, Anno 1800, Manor Lords and more. We also added 663 more games to the achievement-count catalogue that powers the Most Achievements browser.

Steam sometimes omits free games and Source mods — like Entropy: Zero — from the owned-games list it shares over its API, even when you have played them, so they never appeared on your profile. Now you can add them yourself: go to Settings, Track extra games, search for the game and add it, and SteamVault pulls your achievements for it directly and folds them into your profile on your next refresh. Community suggestion from the Discord. Site search was also fixed in the same vein — Steam's own search does not list some free mods, so SteamVault now searches its own catalogue too, meaning games like Entropy: Zero show up when you look for them.

SteamVault has a new Live page: see which members are streaming Steam games and achievement hunts on Twitch right now, with live thumbnails, what they are playing, and viewer counts — plus a roster of every streamer in the community to follow. Any member can be featured for free: just add your Twitch channel under Settings, Live streaming, and you will appear automatically whenever you go live. It is curated and safe — gaming and achievement-hunting content only, Steam games, and no NSFW; the full rules are on the Live page. Find it in the top navigation under Live. Streaming your own 100 percent runs is a great way to grow your channel and help the community discover each other.

By community request: full achievement walkthroughs for both Entropy: Zero and Entropy: Zero 2 — the beloved standalone Half-Life 2 mods, each with its own Steam achievements (31 and 39). Every guide is written from the live Steam achievement descriptions; the mods' many hidden, description-less achievements are flagged honestly as story or scripted-moment unlocks pointing you to a community walkthrough, rather than guessed at. SteamVault tracks any Steam game or mod with achievements, so both now have full guide pages. We also clarified the Family Library sync instructions: the Steam token only appears when you're signed in to Steam in that same browser (not the app) — if the page shows an empty data list, you're simply not logged in.

A full 13-achievement Oxenfree guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the chasm jump, the Adler letter and hidden-frequency collectible hunts, the Renjamin slap and the make-enemies-with-everyone run. Because Oxenfree is a short branching-choice adventure, several of its achievements are hidden and tied to specific endings and relationship outcomes; rather than guess at exact triggers, those are flagged honestly as choice-driven and pointed at a spoiler-aware community guide, with a note that its New Game Plus makes mopping them up on a second run easy. Five new franchise collections to hunt: God Eater (GOD EATER 2 Rage Burst and GOD EATER 3), Oxenfree (both games), Playdead (LIMBO and INSIDE), We Were Here (all five co-op escape-room chapters) and The Bard's Tale (the ARPG remaster, the Trilogy and Bard's Tale IV) — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. Plus a new best-of list, Best Stealth Games on Steam, ranking ten sneaking greats from Dishonored 2 and Metal Gear Solid V to Shadow Tactics and Invisible, Inc. The achievement catalogue also grew by 1,020 more games.

Two upgrades to Quests. First, every active Quest now has a "what counts for you" view — expand it and SteamVault lists the games in your own library that still have achievements to earn and genuinely count toward that Quest, most-opportunity first, each linking straight to its guide page. No more guessing which of your games qualify for something like the AUGUST letters run. Second, the monthly slate is getting more creative: September's vote introduces brand-new challenge types beyond the usual — Weekend Warrior (achievements earned on Saturdays and Sundays), One Big Day (your biggest single-day haul), Franchise Tour (spread across as many different franchises as you can), One-Percenter (only achievements under 1% global rarity) and Century Club (achievements in games with 100+ of them) — alongside returning favourites like Backlog Buster and Fresh Blood. Head to the Quests page to sign up for August and vote on September.

The community vote is in, and August's three Quests are now live to sign up for and climb. Backlog Buster rewards achievements in games you first started before 2026, Fresh Blood rewards games you first played in 2026, and the AUGUST letters run rewards achievements in games whose titles start with A, U, G, S or T. Each Quest carries Bronze, Silver and Gold medals for your profile, and scoring counts everything you earn across the whole month — so signing up mid-month still credits your entire August. Voting for September is open now too: ten candidates including a SEPTEMBER letters run, Digging for Diamonds, Rarity Run, Daily Dedication, Heavyweight and Franchise Focus. Head to the Quests page, sign up for August, and pick your top three for September.

A full 52-achievement Enshrouded guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the character-level milestones from 2 all the way to 99, the early crafting and tool unlocks (flame altar, grappling hook, glider), the elixir-well guardian fights, and the big per-region completion grinds across the Springlands, Revelwoods, Nomad Highlands, Kindlewastes, Albaneve Summits and Veilwater Basin: reaching every Ancient Spire, mining every valuable material, reading every obelisk, clearing every Shroud Root and finding every flame shrine and sanctum, plus the Shroud Wyvern and dragon boss kills. Because Steam does not list exact node, obelisk and shrine locations, those collection goals point you at a community map for the final stragglers rather than inventing coordinates. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Chivalry (Medieval Warfare and Chivalry 2), OlliOlli (all three skateboarding games), Goat Simulator (the original, the Remastered edition and Goat Simulator 3), The Great War (the Verdun, Tannenberg and Isonzo WW1 trilogy) and Granblue Fantasy Versus (Versus and Rising) — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. Plus a new best-of list, Best Soulslike Games on Steam, ranking ten punishing action-RPGs from Elden Ring and Sekiro to The Surge and Code Vein. The achievement catalogue also grew by 390 more games.

A full 54-achievement Sea of Stars guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the lock-breaking and Moonerang-bouncing combat feats, the big completion grinds (catch every fish, cook every recipe, find every treasure, deliver all the Rainbow Conches to Mirna, hear every campfire story), the team Timed Hit and Timed Block challenges, and the whole Horloge minigame slate including the Wheels champions. The hidden story achievements that ship with no published description — the four Dwellers and the rest of the campaign beats — are flagged honestly as story-related and unmissable rather than guessed at. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Kingdom Rush (all five tower-defense games plus Legends of Kingdom Rush), The Forest (The Forest and Sons Of The Forest), Wargroove (both games), Q.U.B.E. (the 10th Anniversary edition and Q.U.B.E. 2) and Shadow Tactics (Blades of the Shogun and the Aiko's Choice expansion) — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. Plus a new best-of list, Best Roguelike Deckbuilder Games on Steam, ranking eight card-slingers from Slay the Spire and Balatro to Fights in Tight Spaces. The achievement catalogue also grew by 1,366 more games.

A full 104-achievement Raft guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the survival-day milestones up to 365 days, every hunter ladder (sharks, Lurkers, Screechers, Anglerfish and the rest), the builder, gatherer, painter and zipline grinds, capturing animals and bees, digging treasure, the trading-post token tiers, and the island Historian note-hunts across Vasagatan, Radio Tower, Tangaroa, Balboa, Caravan Town, Varuna Point and Temperance. The hidden story achievements that ship with no published description are flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Three new franchise collections to hunt: Silent Hill (Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill f), Blood Bowl (Blood Bowl 3, Blood Bowl 2 Legendary Edition and Blood Bowl Chaos Edition) and Broken Sword (Shadow of the Templars Reforged, the Smoking Mirror Remastered and the Serpent's Curse) — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. Plus a new best-of list, Best Metroidvania Games on Steam, ranking ten explorers worth getting lost in from Hollow Knight to GRIME. The achievement catalogue also grew by 835 more games.

A full 11-achievement Manor Lords guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — surviving your first winter, hitting 100 percent approval in a Large Town, the Restoring the Peace scenario and its harder clears (defeating Baron Hildebolt, winning with mercenaries only, and beating it on the Challenging preset), the no-hunting no-foraging Merchant run, and quality-of-life pops like changing the church bell. Because each achievement states its own requirement, every tip restates the real goal and adds safe city-building strategy, with no invented triggers. Four new franchise collections to hunt: The Elder Scrolls (Skyrim, Skyrim Special Edition, Oblivion Remastered, plus Skyrim VR as an optional bonus), Dragon Age (The Veilguard and Inquisition), Painkiller (Hell and Damnation and the 2025 reboot) and SpellForce (SpellForce 3 Reforced, Conquest of Eo, Soul Harvest and Fallen God) — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. The achievement catalogue also grew by 656 more games.

A full 179-achievement Brotato guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — every kill and material milestone, the stat-threshold builds (Dodge, Speed, Range, Life Steal, HP Regen), the tricky one-run challenges like Overkill, Unstoppable Force and Fireworks, and the big grind of winning a run with every character across both Crash Zone and The Abyss plus the Danger 0 to 5, Nightmare and Wounded clears. Because Brotato spells out exactly what each achievement wants, every tip restates the real requirement and adds safe general strategy, with no invented triggers. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Salt (Salt and Sanctuary plus Salt and Sacrifice), Redout, My Hero One's Justice, Steel Division and The Crew — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. The achievement catalogue also grew by 291 more games.

A full 57-achievement Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the story-progression beats through the Ginso Tree, Misty Woods and Mt. Horu, every ability-tree branch, all Health and Energy Cells, the Map Stone restorations, the tricky combat-combo tasks (Bash chains, Charge Flame detonations, Light Burst torch lighting) and the brutal endgame runs like Supersonic, Immortal and One Life. Five new franchise collections to hunt: The Banner Saga, Transport Fever, BlazBlue, Sam & Max and Dead or Alive — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. The achievement catalogue also grew by over 1,400 more games.

A full 35-achievement Nine Sols guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the Daybreak Tower music-sheet puzzle, the optional miniboss clear, the full skill-tree and Jade collectibles, maxing the Azure Bow, the Shanhai 9000 hunts and the Standard Mode finish. The hidden story achievements that ship with no published description are flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Contra, Metal Slug, Ninja Gaiden, Duke Nukem and Cook Serve Delicious — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. The achievement catalogue also grew by over a thousand more games.

A full 71-achievement Hi-Fi RUSH guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the beat-hit and parry milestones, the partner call-in challenges, the security-robot and shield counts, the collectible hunts, and every difficulty clear from Easy up to Rhythm Master. The handful of hidden story achievements that ship with no published description are flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Quantic Dream (Detroit, Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls), The King of Fighters, Neptunia, Railway Empire and House Flipper — every game checked three ways before it went in: that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. The achievement catalogue also grew with more games.

A complete 100-achievement PowerWash Simulator guide, written straight from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the Career Mode star milestones, the equipment and cleaning-liquid ownership targets, the bonus jobs, the full Career clear and the cosmetic loadouts. The few hidden achievements that ship with no published description are flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Dragon's Dogma, ELEX, Insurgency, Zero Escape and Men of War — every game checked three ways before it went in, that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still actually purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn.

Introducing Quests: monthly achievement challenges with Bronze, Silver and Gold medals and their own leaderboards. Each month has a themed slate — earn a set number of achievements that fit the theme (rarest achievements, a spread of different games, games starting with certain letters, and so on). You sign up for the ones you want, so you never auto-join, and signing up part way through the month still counts everything you earned that whole month. Medals you earn live on your profile, and there is a new Quests page showing the current challenges, your progress, and the leaderboards. Right now you can vote for which challenges run in August — pick your favourites and the top ones go live on the 1st. Supporter votes count double.

A complete 61-achievement walkthrough for Sifu, written from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the takedown-chain and score-threshold challenges, the arena packs and the tiger and dragon challenge tiers, the detective boards in every level, and the near-deathless runs behind the age-25 and age-50-or-younger clears. The hidden story and boss achievements that ship with no published description are flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Star Ocean, Sword Art Online, Shin Megami Tensei, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Digimon — every game checked three ways before it went in, that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still actually purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn. Plus 1,500 more games added to the achievement-count catalogue, most of them niche releases no other tracker has listed yet.

A complete 45-achievement Ghostrunner walkthrough, written from the real Steam achievement descriptions — the ability-combo kills, the module-gated ones that quietly need Reflect or Deflect: Absorb equipped before they will track, the no-death and no-kill level challenges, and the four separate collectible sweeps that stand between you and Junkrunner. The two hidden achievements with no published description are flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Five new franchise collections to hunt: Hades, Orcs Must Die!, Ghostrunner, Magicka and Katamari. Every game was checked three ways before it went in — that the appid really is the game we meant, that it is still actually purchasable on Steam, and that it genuinely has Steam achievements to earn.

A complete 32-achievement walkthrough for SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated, written from the real Steam achievement descriptions — every Golden Spatula and sock milestone, all the boss fights, and the Sand Mountain ski slopes that block most 100 percent runs. The one hidden achievement with no published description is flagged honestly as unverified rather than guessed at. Four new franchise collections to hunt: Helldivers, Vampire: The Masquerade, SpongeBob SquarePants and Monkey Island — each game checked to be actually purchasable and to genuinely have Steam achievements before it went in, with the VR entries tagged as optional bonuses rather than blockers. Plus 1,070 more games added to the achievement-count catalogue, most of them recent releases that no other tracker has listed yet.

A big batch straight from the suggestion box, all requested by FE112. You can now build your own game lists — keep them private to plan a backlog, or make them public to share, and public ones appear under Lists for everyone. The guide editor now autosaves your draft, so a long write-up is never lost again, and you can attach a tip to each individual achievement instead of burying it in the body text, the way the big trophy sites do it. Guides can also state how many playthroughs a 100 percent run needs, images can be resized, and text can be coloured. Plus a real bug fix: profiles with very large libraries would not load at all, because every single game was rendered at once. The Games tab now loads 100 at a time, so even the biggest accounts on the leaderboard open instantly. Game rows also show how many members have fully completed that game.

A full 61-achievement Gears Tactics walkthrough, written from the real in-game achievement descriptions — including the Jacked game mode challenges and the brutal Insane-difficulty run — with the six blank hidden achievements honestly flagged as unverified rather than guessed. Five new franchise collections to 100%-hunt: Plants vs. Zombies, Gears of War, Front Mission, Shenmue and Valkyria Chronicles. Every game was checked to be purchasable and to actually have Steam achievements before it went in. Plus 1,000+ more games added to the achievement-count catalogue.

A full 61-achievement Bendy and the Ink Machine guide, plus Zombie Army, Styx, Bendy, The Room and Bloons TD franchise collections. The achievement catalogue also grew by ~2,550 games.

We launched a community Discord — join from the new Discord button in the top nav (or the footer). Two channels post automatically: #site-updates gets every new feature and guide the moment it ships, and #latest-completions celebrates each new 100% a member earns. Come hang out, find boosting partners, get help with tough achievements, and show off your completions.

Added a full achievement walkthrough for Pacific Drive (all 49 achievements, grounded in the real in-game descriptions, with the hidden story achievements honestly flagged rather than guessed). Also added five new franchise collections to 100%-hunt: Crysis, Red Faction, Alien, Onimusha, and Dynasty Warriors — every game verified to have Steam achievements and be purchasable before it went in. Plus 600+ more games added to the achievement-count catalogue.

Added a full achievement walkthrough for The Forest (all 45 achievements, grounded in the real in-game descriptions with hidden ones honestly flagged). Also added five new franchise collections you can 100%-hunt: F1, Syberia, RAGE, Commandos, and Risen — every game verified to have Steam achievements before it went in.

Reworked how VR fits collections (thanks _Wicky__ + Dewald). Instead of hiding VR games, a franchise now shows all of them: you earn the badge by 100%-ing the non-VR games (VR never blocks it), and if you own a headset and clear the VR entries too, you get a bonus 🥽 VR badge on top. Superhot VR is back in the SUPERHOT collection, tagged VR and optional. Entirely-VR franchises (Job & Vacation Simulator, I Expect You To Die) stay in the opt-in VR section. Nobody is pressured to grind headset games, VR owners get recognition, and collections stay complete.

Thanks to _Wicky__ in the suggestion box. Instead of dropping VR franchises, they now live in an opt-in VR section: hidden by default (a Show VR toggle reveals them on the Collections hub, and they sit under a collapsible section on your profile), and they do NOT count toward your badge total or milestones — so nobody is pressured to grind games they need a headset to play, while VR owners still get recognition. Also fixed the detection gap it revealed: Superhot VR was pulled from the SUPERHOT collection (it needs a headset even though Steam tags it VR-compatible), and delisted Forza Horizon 4 was removed from the Forza set.

Your recent unlocks now cycle through a looping carousel at the top of your Overview (icon, name, detail, how long ago, rarity) with a clickable thumbnail rail — PSNProfiles style. Collapsing them into that strip frees the space below, so the Overview is now a cleaner two-column layout: a dashboard sidebar (milestones, rarest, rarity breakdown, what to unlock next) beside a widened Recent Activity games list.

FE112 wanted to show off select achievements PSNProfiles-style. You can now pick favourites from your rarest and recent unlocks and they appear as a showcase strip on your Overview. Free profiles get 5 slots, supporters get 10. Set it from the Customize profile panel.

Five new badge collections, every game verified to have real Steam achievements: Five Nights at Freddy's (the four modern games with achievements), Oddworld (4), SteamWorld (6), Kingdoms of Amalur (2) and Layers of Fear (3). The VR-only Layers of Fear entry was left out, since a badge you can only earn with a headset is not one most people can earn. Added a full walkthrough for Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition: all 30 achievements written from the live Steam list, with the single hidden achievement honestly marked unverified rather than guessed. And the most-achievements catalogue grew from 14,482 to 15,650 games.

Ran a verification sweep across all 191 collections to find franchise games we were missing. Added 20 confirmed entries, including the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection releases, Total War: Rome Remastered, Dark Souls II, the three Shovel Knight campaigns, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episodes I and II, and Trails in the Sky the 3rd. Every one was checked to be a real game (not VR-only, not DLC) with its own Steam achievements before being added.

Four new franchise badges, every appid verified as a real, still-purchasable Steam game with achievements: Mega Man (9 games), Castlevania (5), Sherlock Holmes (5) and Baldur's Gate (4). An F1 collection was investigated and dropped - almost the entire Codemasters F1 run is delisted from Steam, so the badge would be unearnable. Also added a complete Satisfactory walkthrough: all 44 achievements, written from the live Steam achievement list, with the four hidden ones honestly marked unverified rather than guessed at.

Both from _Wicky__ in the suggestion box. Community guides can now show the same At a glance summary our own walkthroughs do - difficulty, time to 100%, missable count, and yes/no facts for grind, difficulty-specific achievements, permadeath runs, NG+ and online. And four new collections: Ship Graveyard Simulator, The Stanley Parable, Savage Planet, and Mini Metro & Mini Motorways. Clone Drone and Prison Boss were requested too but could not be built: Clone Drone in the Hyperdome has no Steam achievements, and Prison Boss VR is VR-only, which we exclude because a badge you can only earn with a headset is not one most people can earn.

Dewald spotted that a bunch of Serious Sam games were missing. Re-ran the full enumeration against Steam and added HD: The First Encounter, Bogus Detour, Tormental, Double D XXL and Fusion 2017. The Classic First/Second Encounter, HD: The Second Encounter, HD Gold Edition and Shatterverse are left out because they genuinely have no Steam achievements, so they could never count toward the badge. VR-only titles are excluded as a new standing policy: a badge you can only earn with a headset is not a badge most people can earn.

New franchise badges for Hollow Knight, Crusader Kings, Europa Universalis, Injustice and The Escapists — 183 collections now, every appid verified to actually have Steam achievements. Added a complete Left 4 Dead 2 walkthrough covering all 101 achievements (written from the live Steam achievement list, with the two hidden easter-egg locations honestly flagged as unverified rather than guessed). The achievement catalogue behind /games/most-achievements grew from 12,718 to 14,449 games.

A full 175-achievement walkthrough for Age of Empires IV, plus something new: a Stack These planner. A lot of the list is single-match conditions locked to one civilisation, and they do not conflict with each other — so we worked out which ones can be earned together and grouped them into 13 runs covering 57 achievements. Each plan tells you how to set the match up, and every achievement in a plan gets a chain badge so you know it is worth doing now rather than later. The planner is generic, so other games can get one too.

We audited all 93 walkthroughs against the live Steam achievement list. Vampire Survivors was the big one - all of its guides were keyed to the wrong names and none of them were showing, so we rebuilt it with a full 243-achievement walkthrough. We also repaired 17 guides across Mafia, Portal, Diablo IV, Alan Wake, Civ VI and Stellaris that were silently not rendering, and replaced 11 guessed hidden-achievement writeups with an honest we-have-not-verified-this note instead.

The Games tab had grown to eight sort pills plus three filter pills plus a toggle. Sorting and filtering now live in two compact dropdowns next to the search box, so the controls fit on one line and there is room to add more sorts later.

New ⚡ Latest Achievement sort on your Games tab: orders your library by the most recent achievement you actually unlocked in each game, so whatever you are truly working on sits at the top (FE112 asked for this — Steam’s own last-played data keeps lying to us). Also added a 🏅 Collection Badges leaderboard ranking members by how many franchise badges they have earned.

Added Alan Wake, The Evil Within, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Mount & Blade and Stronghold collections (178 total, every appid achievement-verified), a full 82-achievement walkthrough for Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and 1,778 more games in the achievement-count browser — now 12,718 games.

The Recent Activity panel on your profile Overview was ordered by most-played-in-two-weeks (Steam returns it that way), so a game you have sunk hours into pinned to the top even if you launched something else an hour ago. It now orders by real last-played time, matching the Games tab.

All 173 collections now have their own page (e.g. /collections/borderlands) listing every game in the franchise with its achievement count and your completion — instead of living as anchors on one big hub. Better to browse, and 173 more pages for Google to find.

Submitted ~9,800 game pages to Google via the sitemap (previously only a few hundred), fixed duplicated page titles site-wide, added an FAQ with structured data to the homepage, and stopped adult titles from being indexed. Groundwork for showing up when people search for a Steam achievement tracker.

The achievement-count browser now covers nearly 11,000 Steam games, shows each game's positive-review count, and hides achievement-spam shovelware by default (games with huge achievement lists but almost no audience) — so the top of the list is real games worth buying. One click to show the spam again.

Expanded the sort-by-achievement-count browser from 750 to over 4,500 games — now covering the ~6,000 most-owned games on Steam, with live achievement counts pulled from the Steam API. Sort descending for the biggest achievement lists, ascending for the fastest 100%s.

New browsable ranking on the Games page: every game we track, sorted by how many Steam achievements it has. Sort descending to find the biggest achievement lists worth buying, or ascending for the quickest 100%s — with search and pagination. Seeded with 750+ games and it grows automatically as more game pages get viewed.

Added Worms, Galactic Civilizations, Sins of a Solar Empire, FlatOut, Turok, POSTAL and Neverwinter Nights — all appid + achievement verified. 173 collections now.

Added Deep Rock Galactic, Project CARS, GRID, Dawn of War, Shantae, Moving Out and Shovel Knight — all appid + achievement verified. 166 collections and counting.

Community guides can now include an at-a-glance difficulty (1–10) and time-to-100% estimate, embedded screenshots (), spoiler tags (||hidden||) that blur until you hover, and divider lines — with new toolbar buttons for each. Writing diary entries now earns Diarist / Chronicler / Lorekeeper titles too.

A new Diaries section in the Forums (📔) where you can keep a running journal of your achievement hunting — progress logs, checklists and completion stories, PSNP/HowLongToBeat-blog style. Write dated entries, read everyone else's in the feed, and delete your own.

Added Farming Simulator, Truck Simulator, The Surge, Lords of the Fallen, Sniper Ghost Warrior and Atelier Ryza (all appid + achievement verified), and rounded out the Trails collection with Trails from Zero and Trails to Azure.

The example profile card on the homepage now shows a recently-active SteamVault member with their real stats and latest unlock — and it’s clickable straight through to their profile (FE112's idea). Refreshes every few minutes.

Added I Expect You To Die, Escape Simulator, WHAT THE...?, Viscera Cleanup Detail and Star Wars Battlefront (all appid + achievement verified, _Wicky__'s picks). Also surfaced Titles from the Milestones tab and added a note that community titles count activity from launch (FE112).

Share a whole franchise, not just one game. Your Cards tab now has a Collection Cards section: open any collection to get a shareable summary card (games at 100%, overall %, total playtime) plus a gallery of every individual game card in that set — all on one page you can post to Reddit or X.

The 100% Achievement Cards now reliably show your hours played for the game. They were pulling playtime from a separate Steam call that comes back empty when game-details privacy isn’t public; they now read it from your cached profile instead (the same value your Games tab shows). Bumped the card version so existing cards regenerate.

The Games tab on your profile has a new "⏱ Time to 100%" sort that orders your library by the community median hours it takes to fully complete each game (from real SteamVault playtime data), and shows the estimate per row. Games without enough data yet sort to the bottom and fill in as more members complete them.

Two new leaderboard boards reward rare accomplishments, not just achievement count: 💠 Rarity Points (every unlock weighted by how rare it is) and 👑 Prestige (each game scored off its rarest achievement you earned, Steam-Hunters style). Pick them from the leaderboard tabs. Scores fill in as profiles refresh.

Added higher tiers across every title category — completions up to 1,000, ultra-rares to 5,000, achievements to 250,000, streaks to 1,000 days, and library breadth to 5,000 games — plus deeper community tiers. Even the heaviest hunters now have a ceiling to climb (51 titles total).

New Titles page (in the More menu) shows every title grouped by category with a progress bar toward each one — completions, ultra-rare unlocks, ratings, tips, guides and forum activity — so you can see exactly what you’ve earned and what’s next.

Titles now reward taking part, not just hunting: rate games (Critic, Connoisseur), write achievement tips (Tipster), publish community guides (Guide Author), and start or reply in forum threads (Conversation Starter, Community Pillar). They tick up as you contribute from now on and can be featured next to your name from Customize Profile (FE112's idea).

Choosing your featured Title now lives in the owner-only Customize Profile panel instead of a big card on your public profile — the title still shows as a gold badge next to your name. Also refined Recently Played so games you only installed (never launched, like a freshly-installed Guardians of the Galaxy) no longer jump above games you actually played.

The Games tab "Recently Played" sort now orders by your real last-played time (like Steam) instead of leading with most-played-in-2-weeks — so the game you just launched sits at the top. That mode now also shows "X ago" per game so it is easy to verify. Hit Refresh on your profile to pull your latest sessions.

Earn Titles from your stats — completions, ultra-rare unlocks, total achievements and streaks (e.g. Completionist Novice, Masochist, Achievement Titan). See them all on your profile and pick one to feature as a gold badge next to your name (FE112's suggestion).

Your Games tab has a new 'Pick my next 100%' button that rolls a random unfinished game, with an option to favour games close to 100% for quick wins (_Wicky__'s idea). Also fixed the 100% Achievement Cards order — they now genuinely sort by most recent completion first (FE112).

Added a full guide for DREDGE (all 60 achievements incl. the Pale Reach and Iron Rig DLC), written from the real Steam descriptions with hidden story achievements kept spoiler-free.

Added Age of Mythology, Planet Coaster, Endless, Vermintide, Homeworld, Age of Wonders, Kingdom, Prince of Persia and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater — every game appid-verified to have Steam achievements. 100% a whole franchise to earn its badge.

Threads you start from a game page now live under their own game section: the Forums page has a "Game Discussions" list grouped by game, each opening a dedicated Forums › Games › [game] page. General topics stay in the main list, so game chatter no longer clutters it.

Community Ratings now sits up beside the rarest-achievement summary instead of taking a full row, the header rarity tags show your earned count out of each tier's total (e.g. 2 / 10 ultra-rare), and the separate difficulty-distribution chart was removed since the header now carries that breakdown.

A bell in the navbar now tells you when someone replies to one of your forum threads or when SteamVault replies to your suggestion. Click it for recent notifications, or open the full Notifications page. (In-app for now; email alerts may come later.)

Game pages now put the achievement list front and centre with ratings, collections and stats tucked into a side column, and the community activity (100% Club, leaderboard, discussion) grouped below — so you reach the achievements without scrolling past everything. On mobile it stacks with achievements first.

Every game page now has its own discussion section — start a thread to ask a question or share a tip about that specific game, and reply to others. Game threads also show up in the main Forums, and a breadcrumb links each thread back to its game.

Every game page now has a SteamVault leaderboard ranking all members tracking that game by completion percentage, with a search box and your own rank highlighted when you're signed in. It fills in as members' profiles refresh.

The Rate-your-100%s shortcut now opens a dedicated page listing exactly the games you've completed but haven't rated yet — so you can see what's left at a glance and jump straight in (FE112's suggestion).

The navbar now has a 'More' menu with Collections, Lists, Forums, Suggestions and this What's New page. A gold dot flags new site updates, and — if you're signed in — how many games you've 100%'d but haven't rated yet.

When you open a game you've taken to 100% but haven't rated yet, a gentle prompt now nudges you to rate it — with a 'Don't ask again' if you'd rather not.

Rate any game's difficulty, enjoyment and grindiness on a finer 1–10 scale. Existing votes were kept and rescaled, so nothing was lost. The widget also moved to the top of each game page so it's easy to find.

The Collections page now has a search box — filter 135+ franchises by collection name or by any game inside them.

Game pages now show which achievements belong to the base game vs each DLC, with a 🧩 chip on every DLC achievement — across 77 games so far.

We're reviewing every walkthrough against official Steam data and fixing errors. Guides now carry an honest note that they're auto-generated tips, with one-tap links to add a community correction.

Added in-depth achievement guides for Prey, Control, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Just Cause 3, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Sleeping Dogs, Dishonored and Fallout: New Vegas.

Added Amnesia, Outlast, The Dark Pictures Anthology, Crash Bandicoot, Rayman, Quake, Darkest Dungeon, Psychonauts, The Walking Dead and many more — 139 franchises in total. 100% a whole series to earn its badge.

Fixed the 'SteamVault 100%s' number on game pages so it reliably counts every member who has fully completed a game.

Support SteamVault on Ko-fi to get a 💛 profile badge and three supporter-only dark themes (Obsidian, Aurora, Crimson).

Pick from five site themes — Midnight, Daylight, Sunset, Cream and Lavender — from the palette icon in the navbar. Your choice is remembered per browser.

Take every game in a franchise to 100% to earn its badge on your profile. Browse them all on the Collections page.

Inline, spoiler-aware achievement walkthroughs for a growing library of games, with your own unlock progress shown per achievement.
