| An '''achievement''' is a reward given to players when they accomplish certain gaming feats decided by the developer in videogames published for ''Games for Windows Live'', [[Xbox 360]], [[Xbox One]], and [[Xbox Series X]] consoles, and on Valve's ''Steam'' platform. Since the launch of the Xbox 360, it has been a mandatory requirement by [[Microsoft]] that all videogames published on the console (including 360 versions of multiplatform games) feature achievements.

| Most Microsoft achievements also award the player Gamerscore that count towards a gamer's total [[Gamerscore]]. These points, while not redeemable, are intended to serve as a tangible form of special rewards for unusual or skilled actions within game play.<ref>[http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/games/achievements-and-challenges '''Xbox.com''': ''Xbox One achievements and challenges'']</ref> Most games contain 30-50 achievements and a total of 1000 Gamerscore, though these numbers can be increased through the release of DLC packs.

| On the Xbox 360, Windows and Steam platforms, achievements take the appearance of icons or badges, not unlike the [[medals]] which can be found in the ''Halo'' games. In contrast to the original small, square achievement icons, Xbox One achievements are represented by large 16x9 images. Rather than icons, these images are often screenshots, concept art, or other related imagery. These images may or may not include additional text, such as the name of the title or a developer logo.
| | Most Achievements also endow upon the player [[Gamerpoint]]s that count towards a gamer's total [[Gamerscore]]. These points, while not redeemable, are intended to serve as a tangible form of special rewards for unusual or skilled actions within game play.<ref>http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/tips/achievements.htm</ref> |

| It is worth noting that ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' has no achievements in and of itself. This is likely due to the fact that because ''Waypoint'' contains no original gameplay, any achievements granted by it would just be rewarding players again for accomplishments they had already completed. ''Waypoint'' instead has [[Halo Waypoint#Avatar Awards|Avatar Awards]], achievable and viewable simply by accessing Waypoint after carrying out certain tasks in the various ''Halo'' games. | | It is worth noting that ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' has no Achievements in and of itself.
