What are the rarest Steam achievements?
Given the platform’s thousands of games, and the millions of people playing them, it’s no surprise that some achievements are considerably harder to earn than others. We used tracking data from GitHyp to determine the rarest Steam achievements for the most-played titles on the PC games store.
In Terraria, the rarest achievement, Currently At One With Nature, requires players to remove specific biomes from their world, a task that could take time and effort depending on where a player starts the game. While there is the option to play on server-side natural world boundaries to make obtaining the achievement easier, it’s possible that this guide still factors into a few gamers’ completion count.
Achieving the Mega Upload achievement in Garry’s Mod has you uploading something to the Steam workshop and getting 1,000 likes. Depending on the level of effort you’re willing to put in, this feat could be easier or harder than earning other achievement titles. If you create a cool weapon or map, the like button could work itself, but for those making something more abstract, you may have to rely on your own pages and the kindness of strangers.
Destiny 2’s triumph seals are monthly challenges that players can work on throughout each month. The game features multiple seal types, with different challenges, each requiring a different amount of game-time commitment. In particular, the Original Seal is considered the rarest triumph seal in the game, as it requires players to complete all three Criminal Mastermind Challenges in The Doomsday Heist. Only 3.9% of players have earned one of the original seals.
The rarest Rocket League achievement involves scoring ten goals against pro-level bots using specific vehicles. You don’t have to get all 10 in one game, either, so this particular feat is less likely to kick you out of whatever session you’re grinding. Still, a mere percentage of Rocket League players have this achievement, so it could be a challenge.
The highest Lost Ark achievement requires players to reach the Grand Master rank in PvP modes. While that sounds simple, note that only absolute pros will reach this level, since the game’s ranked modes require skill, tenacity, and dedication. While you likely won’t hit Grand Master immediately when you start playing, you can improve your skills gradually, then aim for this reward once you’re technically among the game’s best.
For fans of fast-paced multiplayer games, this GitHyp chart is sure to hit close to home, with Warframe’s rarest achievement, K-Driven, earning the title of “most-played, rarest achievement.” In order to unlock K-Driven, you need to ride a million meters with a K-Drive hoverboard and get a K-DRIVE at viability level 12. While that might not sound difficult at first, remember that the sci-fi game’s fanbase is mighty small when compared to other games on this list.
While there are many other Warframe achievements with similar completion rates, very few players have hit 400,000 damage with Valator, achieved a K-DRIVE level cap, or received Kril’s Collaborator K-Saudi Skin. The game sees a new update every few weeks, and dedicated fans are keeping the action RPG fresh, which is why it remains one of the best free games on PC.
The ARK: Survival Evolved achievements require players to tame all of the domesticable creatures on the map’s various environments. While some players are still working on this arduous task, others have settled for taming only one creature, the formidable Megalodon, which can be done rather early on in their Ark journey. Poor little guy, we’re sure he’ll
