    May 15, 2020 Update: These two achievements are now both finally obtainable! Disregard the following post

    It appears this game currently has two unobtainable achievements, as the achievement list is the same as the Steam release, however not all content from the Steam version was ported over onto Xbox.

    Space EngineersExplorerKawiNinjaRider7The Explorer achievement in Space Engineers worth 262 points(Locked) Visit all planets and moons in Survival mode.

    Explorer has you visiting all 6 of the game's planets and moons (Earth, the Moon, Mars, Europa, Titan, and "Alien"), but the last 3 are nonexistent on Xbox and only available to Steam players. Have tried several different methods of getting this achievement with just the 3 that are available, including loading a fresh game spawning on each planet/the moon, and even using admin tools to teleport to each location with no luck.

    Space EngineersDeath WishKawiNinjaRider7The Death Wish achievement in Space Engineers worth 310 points(Locked) Armageddon Mode for 5 hours in Survival.

    Death Wish requires you to spend 5 hours in Armageddon mode, a mode which meteor showers are constantly raining down on you, though this option is not available in Xbox's game settings when you start a new world. On Steam this is found under the "environment hostility" settings, but is also nonexistent on Xbox and the only two options you are given are safe & normal.

    I have submitted a bug report for both achievements over on the Keen's support page, and have it linked below if anyone wants to check it out and upvote my report. Doing so will hopefully bring more attention to these issues and get the developers to look into this and put out a fix quickly. I will also continue to update this thread if/when I hear more back from them.

    First of all: Great work making a bug report for this!

    I also noticed the same thing, and if it wasn't for your efforts, I probably would have had to do all the work. So thanks!

    Small detail here:
    You seem to have posted it on the PC support forums, not the Xbox One forums;

    Achievements are now obtainable finally!!! Just unlocked Explorer and Death Wish progress is tracking, though Xbox tracker is currently showing 0.01% have unlocked it so it is in fact obtainable.
