IRON NEST Achievements and Gold Medals Guide

This IRON NEST achievements and gold medals guide explains the current 33 Steam goals, mission completion, ending choices, medal tiers, and Patch 6 fixes.

Current Steam baseline

Steam lists 33 achievements on September 2, 2026. The set includes mission-completion goals, achievements for earning gold on all medals within named operations, and multiple outcome achievements tied to the campaign’s final choices.

This count and the global completion percentages are live data. They can change with updates and player activity.

Separate completion from mastery

First finish a mission and learn its objective flow. Then inspect its medal conditions and plan a replay around one or more gold requirements. A successful shot or completed operation does not automatically mean every performance condition reached gold.

For an orderly checklist, track:

  1. the basic completion achievement for each named operation;
  2. every medal and its current tier;
  3. the gold-all-medals achievement for that mission;
  4. each campaign ending or mutually exclusive outcome still needed.

Procedural positions mean a copied coordinate walkthrough may not reproduce another run. Build the map again while keeping the medal’s performance requirement in view.

Missing unlocks after launch

Patch 6 version 1.0 (1663) explicitly fixed Steam gold-medal achievements not unlocking and an impossible consecutive-kills medal on Iron Road. Update first, finish the mission cleanly, dismiss the newspaper, and then check Steam. Do not assume a pre-patch failure proves the current condition is still broken.

Version note

The 33-item list and Patch 6 fix are verified sources checked September 2, 2026. This guide does not claim every medal was earned or tested by the author.
