Unused Achievements

Goodnight Scheherezade

Present in the PC version is a texture for a unused achievement. Named "32 Goodnight Scheherezade", this achievement is missing in the achievement code and from Steam itself. However, this achievement is available in the PlayStation versions as a platinum trophy, with the requirement to obtain it being "Collect all Trophies". The icon for the trophy is different than the Steam and Xbox achievements, and is written as "Good Night, Scheherezade".

AnArtistAtHeart

In the code for Steam achievements is a line that references an unused one, named AnArtistAtHeart. The achievement code, named DataAchievement.csv, has a key in the first line that explains what the following achievements' code means. Past all used achievements, at the bottom, is a line that references the mentioned achievement. In its notes section is the text "[in memory of Lance]". This is referring to Lance Reddick, the voice actor of Hellboy in this adaptation. Reddick passed away near the end of development, making this one of his final posthumous roles. The developers have stated his impact on the game and held him in high regard in interviews and public statements. This achievement was likely made to honor him, but was ultimately scrapped.
