Steam achievements are getting a huge overhaul, with separate sets for DLC and season passes, and an easy way to compare with friends
It's in beta now, but will likely release widely in about a month.
Valve has introduced significant updates to the Steam client beta, aimed at enhancing the achievement system and making it more user-friendly. The most notable changes include separate sets of achievements for DLCs and season passes, allowing players to maintain 100% completion bragging rights for the base game, even if they choose not to play additional content.
Additionally, achievements are now displayed on a single page, showcasing overall progress and individual achievement unlocks, with the ability to compare progress with up to three friends at once. While these changes have been implemented in select games, the update is still in beta, and not all Steam games have adopted this new system.
