Achievements

Unlock all 55 Achievements in Into the Breach! This guide details Global, Squad-Based, and Challenge Run achievements, including tips for Victory, Metagame, Island, Pilot, and Challenge achievements.

Into the Breach features 55 Achievements, divided into 25 Global Achievements and 3 Achievements for each of the 10 Primary Squads. Completing an Achievement awards 1 Coin, which is used to unlock additional Squads. Squads can be unlocked in any order. The cost in Coins for specific squads are: Rusting Hulks (2 Coins), Zenith Guard and Blitzkrieg (3 Coins), Steel Judoka and Flame Behemoths (5 Coins), and Frozen Titans and Hazardous Mechs (6 Coins).

Game length is determined by the number of islands secured before destroying the Volcanic Hive. Shorter games offer less time to gain XP and gather resources like Reactor Cores, Pilots, and Weapons, making them harder.

• Victory - Beat the game (any length).
• Hard Victory - Beat the game on Hard (any length).
• Adaptable Victory - Beat the game at least once per length (2, 3, & 4 Islands secured).
• Squads Victory - Beat the game with 4 different Squads (any length).

Global - Metagame Achievements

These achievements often require multiple timelines due to their cumulative nature. Reputation (stars) are earned for completing missions, with 0-2 Reputation per mission and a maximum of 5 missions per Island. Typically, 8-10 Reputation is gained per Island if all missions are completed. Expect to play 2-3 timelines for 50 Reputation. Civilians in buildings grant rewards; destroying buildings kills civilians. Maximum civilians saved per mission: 500 on Easy (200 missions minimum), 1,000 on Normal (100 missions), and 1,500 on Hard (67 missions). Mechs or Veks can block emerging Veks, with more appearing on harder difficulties. A Perfect Island means all mission objectives are completed and all Time Pods are recovered.
