15 Hardest Video Game Achievements Of 2017 (So Far)
6. Power Overwhelming - Plague Inc. Evolved
Yes, Plague Inc. Evolved dropped on the Xbox One some time ago - all the way back in 2015 to be exact. However, an update that brought in a whole new type of plague - one that lets you make vampires, dropped this year and with it came brand new achievements.
For those unaware, Plague Inc. Evolved is a game where you try and kill the entire world, quite literally. But for this achievement you aren't dealing with a plague, you want to turn everyone into vampires - and to be fair you want to kill a couple people too. The achievement description simply reads "Consume the bones at Stonehenge," because a hard achievement with a description that helped just wouldn't make sense, and making sense of how to even unlock this achievement is a lot of work.
When it comes to most achievements in this game there's a fair amount of RNG involved. You need to get lucky. You need to start your plague/vampire in the right country, evolve and spread it the correct way and then pray to RNGesus that he will gift you the right circumstances to get the achievement. What makes Power Overwhelming so different though is the sheer amount of good RNG, and the amount of meticulous care and attention to detail you need. Seriously, it's a whole thing, and the shortest guide to gaining the achievement is a 600-word block of text that doesn't even guarantee it happens.
Taking into account the amount of luck and skill needed, it should come as no surprise that this achievement is rocking a 0.06% unlock rate on Xbox Live currently.
