Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm hosts a plethora of new achievements and unlockables. Completing the campaign on Brutal difficulty will award you with achievement points and the Narud portrait. It's possible to complete a good portion of the achievements in one playthrough, but it will be much easier to get them all on a second playthrough on Hard difficulty. Like Wings of Liberty, there are achievements that must be completed on Hard difficulty or higher, but they're no longer listed on the score screen at the end of each mission. What takes their place are a new set of achievements that must be completed on Normal or higher. The Hard difficulty achievements can be found in the achievement window in the menus.
