Introduction

Welcome to the Achievement Guide for Homeworld: Deserts Of Kharak!

The purpose of this guide is to give a clear overview of the requirements for earning all 51 achievements in the game and reaching that perfect 100% completion. Here are some important things to cover before discussing the individual achievements:

Almost all achievements can be obtained in single player (Skirmishes), but some of them can easily be obtained in multiplayer mode with a friend.
Many achievements (especially the automatch ones) can be quite time-consuming, so it’s advisable to keep patience!

Note: If you have any requests of what you wish to see in this guide, please leave your comments below. Or if you see an error in any of the listed achievements do leave me a message about it in the comments!

Enjoy this Guide!

With that out of the way, let's begin!

I can confirm that the achievements are broken. Tried to win 10 Coalition artefact extractions with no pop up, went to 13 total games with nothing.

Uchiha_Murilo 22 Dec, 2022 @ 9:41am

game didn't give me the achievement for completing the campaign, great

ItsDaKoolaidDude 9 Sep, 2022 @ 1:02am

Thats a lot of multiplayer achievements...

Sir_Sephy 8 Sep, 2022 @ 3:51pm

I supposed I can't earn automatch achievements as solo, right?

Lt. Aldo Raine 14 Apr, 2022 @ 1:31pm

Just adding an additional confirmation that Skirmish does not work for the various wins. However, you can do it via a private multiplayer game with AI. Again, Skirmish does not count. It has to be a multiplayer game.

Multiplayer achivements can be done solo in Multiplayer private games with ai.

The achievements that require wins can be done fast with the help of a 2nd player. If the booster forfeit the game (quit) the remaining player get the win. You can get 40 to 50 wins per hour.

The artifact runs are faster solo but they are borring since you have to wait until they are ready to capture them. With 3 captures for victory per game you need 4min 20sec for each game.

For the automatch achievements they removed everything except the 3 bronze ones. In order to get them all you need a party of 6 players. Let one team get 5 wins. You dont have to play the games normaly if you dont want to. The first team who boost can forfeit the game by quiting and after 5 wins everyone who participated in these 5 games will also get the bronze medal and achievement (even those who lose the games, bugged??)

I do not own this game, but I have read that you need to setup custom mp game and add AI as enemy, this way you can grind these annying achievements. Not via skirmish.

eXe 8 Aug, 2020 @ 8:31pm

Did some skirmish "Artifact Retrieval" games as Coalition, but neither got Progress in
"Won 10 Artifact Retrieval games as Coalition"
nor in
"Multiplayer: Artifact Hunter 50 Coalition Retrieved 50 Artifacts as Coalition"........

Skirmish seems really not to count for "Skirmish/Multplayer Achievements:"!

SirWally123 12 Sep, 2017 @ 5:59am

Pretty basic but thanks for laying it all out there.

LoTeK_ 22 Jul, 2017 @ 4:36am

Multiplayer non ranked achievements can really be obtained in skirmish? Are you sure? 'Cause my counter isn't going up here. Could you confirm that?
