Wardogs: How to Unlock All 10 Achievements

Every achievement in the Early Access build, plus the two tutorial unlocks and the defibrillator kill most players miss.

Every achievement in the Early Access build, plus the two tutorial unlocks and the defibrillator kill most players miss.

Wardogs pits three teams of a hundred players against each other for control of the map, and its Early Access build ships with a compact set of achievements that reward cash, positioning, and a few unusual kills. Ten are live on Steam right now, and two of them can be cleared before you ever load into a real match.

Quick answer: There are 10 achievements in the current Wardogs build. Two unlock in the Tutorial, and the rest come from cash milestones, long-range kills, and specific match outcomes.

Two free unlocks in the Tutorial

Finishing the Tutorial from start to end awards This is WARDOGS with no extra effort. Play it through once and the achievement lands automatically.

The hidden one, That was rude, is tied to the same sequence. While you are in the Tutorial, punch the character named Kristopher. It is the easiest achievement in the game and the one most players skip by rushing through, so take the extra second before you move on.

Don’t skip the Tutorial to save time. Doing so is the only chance to grab the punch achievement without loading back into it later.

Do Not Resuscitate: unlock and use the Defibrillator first

Do Not Resuscitate asks you to kill an enemy player with the defibrillator charge, which means you need the tool before you can even attempt it. The Defibrillator is normally used to revive teammates instantly, and it requires a battery to charge and use.

It becomes available at Medic level 11, and buying access to it carries a one-time unlock fee of $50,000. After that, the item itself costs $1,600 and weighs 2.6 kg. Once you have it equipped and charged, land the shock directly on an enemy to score the kill and trigger the achievement.

The harder match-based achievements

The remaining seven all come from live matches, and a few take real patience. Long Shot needs a kill from more than 950m away, so it rewards a steady sniping setup and a clear firing line. Ricochet is far more forgiving, since any enemy killed by a bounced bullet counts.

Cash drives three of them. Fat Stacks wants $100,000 in net profit during a single life, Big Spender wants $100,000 spent on one loadout, and Top Dog requires finishing as the highest cash earner across every team in the match. CZ Survivor and Clean Sweep round out the list, asking you to survive 60 minutes in the CZ without dying and to win a match without any other team scoring a point.

Because Wardogs is still in Early Access, more achievements are likely to arrive as the game updates, and a console release would probably add its own set. For now, keep the tougher match objectives in mind while you play so you can knock them out whenever the opportunity lines up.
