How to unlock the Family is in Tents achievement in Psychonauts 2 - Definitive Guide

You can get this achievement once you reach the “Questionable Area” of the game. When you’re facing the diner area (as soon as you get in) just to the right of it are a bunch of poles with platforms on them. Just climb up to the highest platform and shoot the target on the highest pole using PSI Blast.

Edit: You can also shoot the target on the highest pole from the ground? I never tried this, give it a go! Thanks comment #3 for adding this!

You are supposed to talk to someone prior to this, but comment #1 confirmed that it’s not necessary. Just go ahead and do above step.

FYI: if you are trying to do this after finishing the game, not to worry! There is free roam exploration / level select after the game ends. You can still do this achievement the same way as paragraph 1 states.

I picked this up without even realising, cause you can shoot the target to complete the quest without actually starting it…

I was wondering if that was the case as well. I’ll add it to the guide now that it is confirmed

You can also shoot the target from the ground pretty easily if you don't want to do any climbing.

I’m not sure what this means. Do you mean the achievements is not unlocking at all?

This achievement specifically did not unlock even though I completed the quest.

Odd, tried rebooting the console since? Closing the game down and restarting the game? Or both? Hopefully it will unlock next time you play the game

I restarted, disistalled, released the cache and so far nothing, it happened yesterday, after I finished the mission it just didn't happen, very strange

It’ll probably unlock some time later down the line, I’ve had achievements not unlock until days later sometimes. Or until the time I chose to replay a game a year or two later (shadow of war comes to mind). If all fails, I don’t think it takes that long to get there in new game+ As tedious as that sounds

@RodrigoBr128 Did this achievement ever pop for you? I've 100% the game but this and some other achievements still haven't popped, including a couple of unmissable story related ones.

@Tundra Boy Muc if you still didn’t unlock anything, you may have to replay the game just to get what you missed (hopefully you don’t need the collectible ones). There must have been an issue with the game communication to the Xbox server or something so the achievements didn’t unlock. Xbox Live has been a bit funny as of late.

I am not aware of any glitched achievements. Best of luck in getting any of you do dude.

I did this post-patch, and it didn’t unlock when I shot the target before Dion got there. After visiting the family camp, Dion moves next to the tent. Talking to him started the quest, and the achievement popped after the tent popped up.

had no problem having this one unlock without talking to Dion but attempted this after completing the main story (if that matters)

After unlocking the Questionable Area, you will be pushed toward meeting your family on the camp grounds. They will tell you that Dion needs help setting up the circus tent. Head to the Questionable Area Parking Lot and tell Dion you will help him do it. Then all you need to do is jump up the different platforms and use your PSI Blast to hit the target and complete the quest.

!Side-quest Alert!

Speaking to Donatella will have Dion leave the campground to start setting up the Aquato Circus Tent in the parking lot. If you talk to him there, he'll begrudgingly accept help if you're offering to climb the poles and loosen the rope at the top. This will allow you to collect a PSI Challenge Marker once the tent is set up.
