Honeycomb: The World Beyond Achievements Guide: All 28

How many achievements are there?

28 on Steam, from the game’s global achievement stats page — the list below carries every name, its official description (eleven achievements hide theirs on Steam), and the global unlock percentage as of September 25, 2026. Console trophy lists were not verified for this guide.

The full list

What the rarest ones ask

The bottom of the table changed shape over the September hotfixes:

• The study family — Botanist (every plant, 1.1%), Zoologist (every animal, 1.1%), and Scholar (everything — the official description literally reads “Study everyting!”, typo included — now tied with Xeno zoologist at the bottom, 0.8%). Geologist kept its official description, but the hotfixes rebuilt its requirement: Hotfix #8 narrowed it to soil samples and hard materials, and Hotfix #9 re-decides it from your Compendium on load — it doubled to 3.2%
• The hybrid family — Xeno botanist (2.1%) and Xeno zoologist (0.8%), “hybrid every plant/animal possible”. Hotfix #8 repairs broken saves by granting these on load. The engine for them is the crossbreeding guide on the plant side and the taming & nests loop on the animal side
• Archivarium — hidden, and the comeback story of the list: stuck at 0.3% because its unlock was bugged, it jumped once Hotfix #6 made the achievement grant retroactively on load — 4.8% as of this check

What the common ones tell you

The top of the table is a launch-window census: 95.5% hold The World Beyond (our reading: nearly everyone who bought it booted it — the description is hidden), 81.1% survived the first night, and 72.7% built their first shelter. Past the halfway mark, Hop on (“And float away”, 55.8%) reads like the hoverboard’s first ride — a community wiki reads it as the crafting step; see the hoverboard guide and the tools guide — and Survivalist (a week without fainting, 35.6%) is where difficulty choice starts to matter; the wear rates and fainting penalties by mode are tabulated in the game modes guide.

The Compendium catch — fixed by the September hotfixes

The launch-month worry here was the Compendium: entries that could not be unlocked at all — Hot Waters, Lead, Meteor Shard, Sapphire, Symbiolith — blocked the one achievement tied to it. Hotfix #6 (September 16, 2026) removed those entries, and saves you already have are cleaned up and re-checked when you load them, so the Compendium and its achievement complete again.

Hotfix #8 (September 21) kept repairing the same corner of the game: the Geologist achievement now requires only soil samples and hard materials, the first-animal, all-animal and plant hybrid achievements are granted on load based on your Compendium hybrids, and Hennessy’s costumes unlock in the garage mirror again after earning Xeno zoologist.

Hotfix #9 (September 22) turned the repair into a standing rule: the fauna, flora, and geology achievements are now decided by what is in your Compendium, and saves where tracking was never set up or was incomplete grant them when you load, as long as every required entry is known. Between the September 22 check and this one, Geologist doubled again — from 1.6% to 3.2% — consistent with Hotfix #9 granting it on load to saves that had already earned it. The patch notes tracker carries the full lists.

Study-family tips

Everything the bottom of the table asks for routes through systems this wiki already covers:

• Scan as you explore — the registry is the achievement engine; the creatures hub and flora hub map what there is to study
• Hybrids double-count — hybrid offspring are scannable subjects too, and the community-documented answer to the “Scan 23 Animals” objective (valley-exit guide)
• Keep a week alive — Survivalist pairs with careful food and durability management; storage slows rotting to 15% of the world rate per Hotfix #4, and a powered fridge stops it

Percentages will drift as the player base grows — this page was verified against the live stats page on September 25, 2026 and carries its last-checked date.
