Ubisoft just pulled off a sneaky little assassination—Assassin’s Creed 3 Remastered has finally received official achievements support on Steam! That’s right, six years after its release, players can now officially flex their completionist skills without relying on workarounds.

For years, Ubisoft has been on a mission to enhance older titles with quality-of-life updates. Just last month, Far Cry New Dawn got a 60 FPS patch, and back in November, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate was given the same love. The latest target? Assassin’s Creed 3 Remastered, which now lets players unlock achievements retroactively. This means if you already met the requirements before this update, those shiny rewards will pop up automatically. And if you only own the original Assassin’s Creed 3, no worries—you get the feature too.

While this update is a win for achievement hunters, it’s clear that Assassin’s Creed 3 Remastered could use more improvements. Steam reviews paint a picture of a game that still struggles with optimization and bugs. With a “Mixed” rating after over 10,500 reviews, it seems Ubisoft still has work to do if it wants to fully restore this classic’s reputation.

With Assassin’s Creed Shadows on the horizon, it’s only a matter of time before fans start comparing it to past games. Will Ubisoft continue refining its older titles, or is this update just a one-off? For now, at least, AC3 Remastered players finally have something new to celebrate.
