The Expanse A Telltale Series: 100% Achievement Guide

This guide is a full achievement guide for The Expanse: A Telltale Series, with all 35 achievements.

 

Introduction

Welcome to my The Expanse: A Telltale Series achievement guide! Unlike most Telltale games, there are achievements based on collectables as well as decisions. Some collectables you get or decisions you make will directly impact what achievements you can get right until the end of the game. Naturally, this guide will include spoilers, so if you don’t want spoilers you might want to complete the main story first. However, if you already have completed it or don’t care about spoilers and want to do all of these in a single playthrough, I’d recommend going through the achievement list first so you’re aware of what you need to do from the get-go.
