Hello everyone,

Assassin’s Creed Shadows launches on March 20 on Steam, and it’s bringing a full list of achievements with it. Available on day one, these Steam achievements (which are the same as the Xbox achievements and PlayStation trophies) can all be earned in a single playthrough, meaning no achievement can be missed regardless of what story choices you make. And don’t worry – your Leap of Fail will look just as spectacular whether you’re playing on story mode or on expert level, as all achievements are unlockable regardless of difficulty level.


The development team built this list to cover a variety of game content – not just the main story, but also the additional content players can find in the world. As a result, achievements are tied to exploration, activities, the hideout, meeting allies and more. The team also wanted to add puns and references to other games, more particularly to other Assassin’s Creed games. How many can you spot? Let us know in the comments!

Check out all Steam achievements below. Note: If the achievement doesn’t have an objective description, don’t read too much into it – we’re avoiding spoilers so you can experience it fully on March 20.

Finally, please note some achievements do not have descriptions to avoid spoilers – and these will be “hidden” once the game is out!
