Xbox appears to be ready to launch its own version of PlayStation’s platinum trophies. A new update to the Xbox PC app has revealed Mythic achievements, which according to data in the app will appear once a player completes all the achievements in a game.
Mythic achievements appear on screen with a unique unlock sound, and players will reportedlybe able to track themthrough the Xbox dashboard. Xbox players will also be able to display their Mythic count on their profiles. Some Xbox Insider testers have alreadystarted spottingreferences to Mythic achievements in early versions of the Xbox dashboard.
Xbox CEO Asha Sharmarevealed last monththat Xbox would be getting a platinum trophy equivalent later this year. Microsoft still hasn’t officially announced Mythic achievements, but if they’re already starting to appear in early Xbox software then you can bet they’ll turn up officially very soon.
Mythic achievements started appearing in the Xbox PC app on the same day Microsoft announced it waslaying off 268 Xbox staffers, likely closing Ninja Theory, and movingHalo,Sea of Thieves, andAge of Empiresover to Activision.
