Xbox has made a surprising move by completely removing one of the achievements from the Homestead Arcana game's list of 35. The game, which was included in the Game Pass lineup for April and is still available on the Xbox service, is a casual farming simulator developed by Serenity Forge. Players assume the role of a farming witch who must grow various crops, build a home, and upgrade her gear to progress through the game and heal the land of Miasma. However, some players were experiencing difficulties in achieving this due to an issue related to the gear, which was impacting their Xbox achievement completion and hindering their gamerscore growth.
Many Homestead Arcana players encountered a hurdle with one of the game's Xbox achievements, which prevented them from achieving 100% completion of all 35 achievements. The achievement in question, "You Can't Be Too Prepared," sparked controversy among players, but the issue has been addressed with a prompt update that removed the achievement from the list. Despite the setback, numerous Xbox players have managed to earn 34 of the 35 achievements and have already accomplished their goal of completing the Serenity Forge farming simulator.
Crafting every item in Homestead Arcana to unlock the achievement "You Can't Be Too Prepared" is no small feat, and players may encounter a variety of obstacles along the way. However, it appears that one particular item, the Green Ankle Boots, was causing more trouble than it was worth. Despite being necessary for completion, the boots were not even listed for players to craft, resulting in the removal of one Xbox achievement. While it is uncertain whether Serenity Forge or Xbox made the decision to delist the achievement, the issue has been acknowledged and may be resolved in the future. Fans of Homestead Arcana had already taken to the forums to discuss the achievement problems, which may have alerted the developers to the issue. Despite the setback, the community can now move forward with clarity regarding the game's achievements.
Homestead Arcana is available now for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
