The Epic Games Store will soon receive achievements.
Epic Games announced this in a tweet. “Certain games on the Epic Games Store may soon show achievements when you unlock them. This is just an early version of the feature and you can expect to see changes. We’ll be sharing more information about the feature in the future.”
Achievements can be unlocked in certain forms on Steam, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but the Epic Games Store didn’t have them yet. It was therefore a much requested feature among users of the webshop.
