Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Achievement guide · roadmap · tracker
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is the eleventh installment of the Wolfenstein series and a sequel to the 2014's Wolfenstein: The New Order. The game follows the main protagonist, William Joseph "B.J." Blazkowicz, in his efforts to ignite a Second American Revolution. The game is played from a first-person perspective and most of its levels are navigated on foot. The story is arranged in chapters, which players complete in order to progress. A binary choice in the prologue alters the game's entire storyline; some characters and small plot points are replaced throughout the timelines. The game features a variety of weapons, most of which can be dual wielded. A cover system is also present.
There are four missable achievements to get during a playthrough;

I'm Machine Enough
Ultra rare0.5%Beat the Panzerhund ride without killing anyone on "Bring 'em On!" difficulty or higher
In the mission "New Orleans", after climbing the ladder you'll be sitting on a Panzerhund - rush the level without killing anyone on the "Bring 'Em On" difficulty or higher. Make sure you don't run enemies over. The achievement will unlock when you enter the sewers. This is missable because there is no Panzerhund if you revisit the district after the story. Note this is much easier if you just get off the Panzerhund and complete the segment on foot. Even more so if you are only on the Bring It On difficulty.
