Since its inception, the Epic Games Launcher has navigated its own unique suite of challenges. Perhaps the biggest competitor to Steam currently on the market, Epic's platform launched with a relatively small number of features, making up ground by offering developers better cuts of sales. New features have been implemented over time, with Epic Games Launcher adding achievements in a recent update. However, it hasn't all been smooth sailing.
Some users have reported problems with the Epic Launcher's achievement system. It seems that achievements don't always sync on the platform, a frustrating issue for players looking to share their accomplishments with their friends. However, it appears that Epic Games is currently aware of the issue and looking for a permanent fix, though it's not entirely clear how long that will take.

Over on Twitter, Epic Games Director of Publishing Sergiy Galyonkin commented on a post made by another user about achievement syncing issues. Galyonkin confirmed that the syncing problems are a known issue with Epic Achievements and that the company is currently working on a fix. Galyonkin stated that users' achievements are indeed being recorded, but that there's an issue on Epic's side that's causing problems. No timeline was given for when a fix could be implemented.
