I'm back to an old save game which is no longer compatible with the latest game version. I had to revert to version 2.2.1 and everything seems to be fine but my question is: will I still be able to unlock achievements?

im not 100% sure but i think so, considering achievements still worked with beta patches and that you aren't really cheating just playing on a older version.

To my knowledge, yes, but with the caveat that patches prior to an achievement coming to exist will not have the triggers Steam is checking for coded to appear.

All achievements that were present at that version number are available, but no new ones.

I confirm that achievements do work without any problems with game version 2.2.1. Thank you Paradox, I can now continue my Roman Empire campaign!
