Earn achievements as you play

When you play games on Stadia, you can unlock special awards called achievements. Achievements are like trophies. You get them when you complete specific goals in a game, like when you finish a level or defeat a specific number of enemies. Achievements let you and your friends track game accomplishments, and are tied to your account.

Tip: Not all games support achievements, but if you've played games on Stadia, you may have already unlocked some.
