Overview
Edit
The relic is in the shape of an egg and is covered in two rows of strange symbols. These symbols, as well as the Relic itself, are based on those in the Jak and Daxter game series, also created by Naughty Dog for the PlayStation 2. The relic is in the form of a Precursor Orb, an artifact found in the Jak and Daxter games. When the markings are translated they read: "Naughty Dog, Madman."
Location
Edit
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Edit
The relic can be found at the start of the Chapter 5 - The Fortress. When you first enter the fortress through a window by climbing around the outside, you will have to go outside again to proceed. When you break through the second window, follow the passageway to the right, as if you were doing the chapter as normal. You will see a doorway to the left. Outside, there will be a pirate standing directly ahead of you, and beyond him, the remains of a structure that looks like a room. To your left will be a wall of the fortress, with pirates on top of it, and a stairs leading up to the top. Kill all of the pirates and go up the stairs (you will have to do this anyway to do this chapter). At the top of the stairs, go left, towards the remains of the “room.” Jump onto the roof of the “room” and in one of the corners, you will find the Strange Relic.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Edit
The Strange Relic can be found in Chapter 4 - Run to Ground. When you jump down into a room filled with water, head over through a door, where you will find yourself inside a vertical pipe. Normally the player should climb down using other pipes on the wall, but this time climb up to a grate on the wall near the top of the pipe. It should be sitting in the bottom right corner of the grate.
Uncharted: Golden Abyss
Edit
The Strange Relic can be found in Chapter 15: "Chimera to Ward Off Evil". Before or after you open the door for Chase, you go behind you and climb the wall with hand holds. When you reach the top, it will show an icon of a hand, you will touch it and rub all over the Strange Relic to clean it. Once you're done, you have then collected the Strange Relic.
Once you have collected the Strange Relic, the following description of it appears in Nate's Journal:
"Precursor Orbs are mysterious objects which remain enigmatic even today. The Ancients were rumored to use them to defy gravity. Proponents of 'Ancient Astronaut' theories believe they are depleted power cells. Vincent Perez believed them to be important components in sacred rituals involving hidden objects, not unlike ancient Easter egg hunts."
Rewards
Edit
In the first two games, finding the Strange Relic unlocks the Relic Finder medal which awards 20 medal points in Drake's Fortune and $10,000 in Among Thieves. It also unlocks the bronze Relic Finder trophy in all games (although an update required in Drake's Fortune to add trophy support).
Trivia
Edit
- The Strange Relic is found in chapter five of both Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.
- It also can be found in Uncharted 3 multiplayer in Co-op Hunter Arena on Hard or Crushing.
- It is also identical to Naughty Dog's Jak and Daxter series' Precursor Orb.
