There Are Three New Achievements For Ryse On Xbox One

We’re going to file this one under “R” for “Really?” Microsoft has added three new achievements to Xbox One launch title Ryse: Son of Rome.

For those more interested in the campaign, the 50-point “Et, tu, Brute” achievement can be earned by saving the Emperor in the first chapter and then ending his life in the eighth in a single play through. The other 200 points are earned in the multiplayer mode.

“Beware the Ides of March” tasks players with accomplishing 15 executions in a single match. The “Lunacy in March” achievement is yours for playing seven matches on the Barbarous map. Each of these is worth 100 points.

Our Take
There’s no downside for players in having more achievements added to a game, even if it is well over a year old. It’s just not something we’re used to, especially given the critical drubbing this game received.
