Valve has launched a new Steam feature called achievement sets, which lets developers organize a game's achievements into separate groups covering the base game, DLCs, or limited-time seasonal content. Each set gets its own progress bar and a 'set complete' trophy shown on a player's profile, and Valve has also redesigned the Steam Achievements page to summarize overall and per-set progress. The feature is currently available in the latest Steam client beta, with titles like Portal 2, Team Fortress 2, Forza Horizon 5 and Crusader Kings III already supporting it.

Microsoft is combining Playground Games and Turn 10 Studios into a single studio that will focus on Forza Horizon and Fable, according to a memo from Xbox content chief Matt Booty. The move effectively ends Turn 10 as an independent studio after it lost most of its staff in layoffs last year and had been largely maintaining Forza Motorsport since.
