Xbox's version of PlayStation's Platinum Trophy achievement seems to leak, and it's got a sound-effect that's 15 seconds long
I'm not sure what's more surprising: that Xbox never had a Platinum Trophy equivalent, that Xbox feels the need to have a Platinum Trophy equivalent, or that it's adding a Platinum Trophy equivalent now while restructuring the company.

The short version
- Nevertheless, that's what Microsoft appears to be doing.
- The Xbox PC App has reportedly been updated with a new Xbox Mythic Achievement that features an elaborate starred and laurelled symbol design, and an accompanying unlock sound that's 15-seconds long!
- The update was spotted by reputable Xbox-watcher Klobrille , with website TrueAchievements adding that Mythic Achievements are worth zero Gamerscore and apparently retroactive.
What happened
But there's no official confirmation of the Achievement yet, nor confirmation if it works exactly like a PlayStation Platinum Trophy - which is to say you earn it after earning every other Achievement or Trophy in a game. We've asked Microsoft for clarification.
Why it matters
A new update for the Xbox PC App reveals: Xbox Mythic Achievement; plus symbol and unlock sound.
