How to unlock the Sampler achievement in Gears 5 - Definitive Guide

**You'll 100% get this while going for other specific achievements in these game modes like:

Gears 5Line Them UpThe Line Them Up achievement in Gears 5 worth 37 pointsDefeat 10 different opponents in a Free For All Match


Gears 5PaydirtThe Paydirt achievement in Gears 5 worth 16 pointsScore a Touchdown with the Flag in GridIron


Gears 5Close CallThe Close Call achievement in Gears 5 worth 48 pointsWin a Match of Arcade Blitz where the opposition team is within 25 points of winning


However, (for those who want just this achievement and not the others for some strange reason) these can be done in public matches or privately with a friend (or second controller). The fastest matches are as follows:

Arcade Blitz: Set up a private match with a second controller (or bots) for 50 points.

Free For All: Set up a private match with a second controller (or bots) for 10 kills.

Gridiron: Set up a private match with a second controller (or bots) for 13 points. I didn't notice anywhere to lower the point amount. You get 2 points per touchdown (carrying flag to the zone), so you will need to play 7 rounds to win. This took the longest.

You need to complete them, not win, so you will get this after 3 matches.

EDIT: It looks like you now need to win the matches and not just play them (originally you could just complete them, but this was patched out)

Same as above (studlybambi), I had to hard reset the console for it to unlock after getting stuck at 66%.

I needed to win my Free for All match to get this to pop.

I give you a thumbs down because you don't explain how to set up a second controller.
I'm trying to do it for half an hour and still didn't figure it out.
EDIT
I figured it out that I can only add 2nd controller via home page, not the game page, so I've cancelled my thumbs down.
2nd edit
You have to BEAT, not only to complete.

Winning all 3 matches did the trick for me, not just completing them (even from start to finish).

Thanks for all the feedback! I have updated the solution that you must win the matches now.

Actually the cheevo does not require winning. The issue is causing the requirement of a specific type of free for all- it doesnt work on 8 player version, it does work on 14 player version.

I was missing the free for all match, joined the custom 14 player match, finished it last, and the cheevo popped.

Hope it helps.

The match free for all - 8 players doesn't work for this achievement.

Yes Solid Ice19, I just found it out lol That only works with a 14 player round. 8 it doesn't work... I didn't understand why I was stuck at 66%.

I've played and won all three, with and without bots, with and without a second controller, and hard reset and I'm still stuck at 66%. Any ideas?

No need to be rude... they're asking a legitimate question because an achievement is not unlocking when it should.

Now, back to the question... I am not sure what is causing the issue. I unlocked it quite a while back and wrote the guide when I did. I know recent patches broke other achievements, but this one seems fine as multiple people are unlocking it every day. I'd recommend playing each again and make sure you are there the full match... I'd probably even play two matches back to back if you don't see the tracker move.

1) Create a closed confrontation game.
2) Consistently select these 3 modes and play a match in each.
