Developers could add Microsoft achievements on any platform they choose, but with rare exception mostly limited to Minecraft and casual games like Solitaire that doesn't happen

99.9% of the time achievements are isolated to Microsoft platforms like Xbox and the Windows store. You must play those specific versions to unlock them.

Hi, have you tried restarting your console completely (unplugging for 1 min and plugging back in) and restarting your PC? But yeah, it should be tracking the achievements on both devices, is this what you're referring to? https://support.xbox.com/en-US/games/game-setup/tracking-achievements-in-your-game

Fortnite is launched through Epic Games Launcher so it's in it's own ecosystem and Epic currently doesn't have achievements. Xbox doesn't track achievements for Fortnite on PC unless that's something that was recently changed.

Make a TrueAchievements.com account and you can track all your achievement needs there, excellent site.

I gave MS the benefit of the doubt that they were just slow but with the recent forum update and still no tracking of achievements it's starting to look like they are trying to force us into using SmartGlass and purchasing Win 8 if we want to do it from
a PC.

MS made the whole "achievement" thing hugely popular (it's been copied by just about everyone) and now they are dropping the ball.
