What happens to developer achievements?

Ahead of this rollout, certain games had a different kind of reward known as developer achievements. If you have some of these, don’t worry: Epic has verified that your progress will not be lost. Instead, your existing progress will be translated towards these new achievements, allowing you to hit the ground running once the new achievements go live.

When will more Epic games get achievements?

According to Epic, “We’re working to get these tools to more developers, so you can expect to see Epic Achievements popping up in your favorite games later this year. Keep your eyes out for more updates you’ve been waiting for as we drop new social features and player rewards later this year.”
