Airframe Ultra Achievements Guide: All 21 Achievements

How many achievements does Airframe Ultra have?

Airframe Ultra has 21 Steam achievements in total, according to the store page on Steam. A handful of them are highlighted on the store page, and some of those highlighted achievements are marked as hidden (secret), so their names are not shown there. That leaves the full list incomplete unless you look at a tracker.

According to Exophase, the achievement set also includes several secret achievements beyond the ones featured on the store. Its tracking page lists the full roster with unlock conditions, though its completion percentages come from a very small sample of players and should be read as rough community data, not official figures.

What are the highlighted achievements and what do they ask for?

The store page highlights Welcome to Airframe Ultra!, Get Rekt, Baby Steps, You're Supposed to Go Straight!, Taking the Scenic Route, Focus on the Road!, Fashionista, "Just One more Game" and Road Rage. According to Exophase, their unlock conditions are:

Those descriptions are from Exophase's listing, not from an in-game or Steam-published table, so treat them as reported rather than confirmed by the developer.

Are there secret achievements in Airframe Ultra?

Yes. The store page notes that some highlighted achievements are hidden, with their names withheld. According to Exophase, the roster also contains secret entries, including one for blowing up the Airframe by overheating and one for crossing the finish line on Airframe while on fire. Exophase also lists non-secret achievements such as playing a match on every map, equipping a Quirk and earning your first Star. The developer has not published an official name-by-name walkthrough of these, so the exact wording of each condition rests on third-party tracking.

How do you unlock the trickier achievements?

There is no official step-by-step guide from the developer. Based on Exophase's reported conditions, several achievements are naturally earned through ordinary play:

• Welcome to Airframe Ultra! and Get Rekt come from your first elimination in each direction.
• Baby Steps, Focus on the Road! and Fashionista happen almost automatically in your opening matches and trips to the character creator.
• "Just One more Game" and Road Rage ask for a little more time: five completed circuits and five eliminations in a single race.
• You're Supposed to Go Straight! and Taking the Scenic Route reward deliberately bad driving.

The secret entries tied to overheating and to finishing on fire depend on the overheating and damage systems described on the community-run wiki at Miraheze, which notes that sustained high speed builds overheat and can damage the vehicle. That wiki page is marked as a work in progress, so details may change.

Tips for completing all 21 achievements

Play a mix of online and split-screen sessions, since the game's multiplayer modes are the main setting for elimination and race-based achievements. Spend some time in the character creator early, and make a point of finishing at least one lap in last place and one race driving the wrong way. For the heat-related secret achievement, hold throttle for long stretches and watch the overheat gauge described by the community wiki. No patch notes covering achievement behaviour have been published so far, so if an achievement seems stuck, the official launch announcement points players to the bug report forum at bugs.akuparagames.com/airframe-ultra/bugs.
