Microsoft has announced its new Xbox Mythic Achievements feature, which functions similarly to Sony's PlayStation Platinum trophies. The feature is being made available for Xbox Insiders to test and will be unlocked once players earn every original achievement for a game. Notably, Mythic Achievements have already been retroactively added to games players have previously completed, including Xbox 360 titles, meaning some games may already have achieved Mythic status when players next check their profiles.

Xbox is also updating its platform to better track these achievements, with a new gaming tab coming to profiles that will allow players to monitor Gamerscore milestones and Mythic Achievements. The main achievements list is being redesigned to make it simpler to track progress towards Mythic status, with a progress bar at the top of each game's achievement list showing how close players are to completing the set. This announcement comes just weeks after Xbox CEO Asha Sharma indicated the company would introduce a Platinum trophy equivalent this year.
