Valve is introducing achievement sets to Steam, allowing developers to organise achievements for base games and DLC into separate groups. Players unlock achievements as usual by playing, but when browsing unlocked achievements, Steam breaks the list into developer-created sets to show completion progress more clearly and help players find related achievements to unlock next.

Each set has its own progress bar, and completing a set grants a 'set complete' trophy visible on the player's profile. Developers can create seasonal achievement sets that Steam will archive, enabling time-limited holiday achievements or seasonal content. Valve says the feature is already supported by several games including Portal 2, Team Fortress 2, Forza Horizon 5 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4.

Valve is also refreshing the Steam Achievements page to display a summary of overall progress, progress in each achievement set, and details on individual achievements. The new features are available in the latest Steam client beta.
