Epic Games to launch achievements and new XR project

Epic Games today announced it’s adding achievements to some of the games in the Epic Games Store, starting next week. It’s also announced that it was rolling out an augmented reality version of its Project Anywhere proof of concept to Microsoft HoloLens 2.

Achievements, or the acknowledgement of an in-game accomplishment, have been so thoroughly integrated into modern gaming practice that the Epic Game Store felt incomplete without them. Now they’re on their way, and players who get them will be granted certain rewards, though Epic warns that it’ll take a while before they roll out for all of the games on the EGS.
