Microsoft Tests Xbox Achievement Updates With New Look and Profile Controls

The preview marks a first step toward fan‑requested curation led by a new team focused on feedback.

Overview

  • Select Xbox Insiders, who got access Wednesday, began trying a visual refresh that adds new icons, animations, and color matched pop ups.
  • Games you have fully completed now show as 100% highlights in your list, with filters that let you view finished titles at a glance.
  • The option to hide any game from your public achievements history starts rolling out to Insiders later in April, and hidden titles still count toward total Gamerscore with activity still reported across Xbox.
  • Microsoft says the features will reach more testers over the coming weeks before a broad release to all players after Insider feedback.
  • Xbox describes the changes as quality of life improvements to a long static system, and CEO Asha Sharma said a dedicated team is working on fan requests with more updates to follow.
