Uncharted 4: How to Find the Strange Relics for the Relic Finder Trophy

One of the Trophies in Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is called Relic Finder. It tasks players with collecting the Strange Relics, although no other information is given. It turns out that there are three of these, each found in separate story missions. They’re pretty far apart and very easy to miss. Fortunately enough, we’ve found all three and are here to help you nab the Relic Finder Trophy for yourself.

Strange Pendant

Location – Chapter 9: Those Who Prove Worthy

The first item you seek is found during Chapter 9 while you’re exploring the dark cave with your brother, Sam. As you progress, you’ll find yourself in an area with a large drop to your left and right. If you peer over the edge to your left, you’ll find a grapple point that you can latch onto. Do so, then drop down. Now turn around and look for a small opening in the cave wall. Swing over (you’ll hit yourself on the wall behind you a few times, but don’t worry). Once you can reach, make the jump. The first Strange Relic is on a corpse sitting inside the small area.

Strange Relic

Location – Chapter 12: At Sea

During Chapter 12 you’ll find yourself climbing a rock face covered in grass and trees. Keep your eyes on the left side where you’ll notice a part of the rock you can stand on with a stone basin sitting in the center. There will be a grapple point between you and this area, so just swing over. On the rim of the basin you’ll find the second item you need. This particular collectible is present in each Uncharted game and resembles a Precursor Orb from the Jak & Daxter series.

Strange Fruit

Location – Chatper 21: Brother’s Keeper

As you progress through the mission, you’ll find yourself at a cliff inside a cave with a place for you to latch onto with your rope. As you move down, Drake will comment on Avery’s ship. Look at the rock arch just above you as you hang and you’ll notice a small opening to the right. It’s a bit tricky, but you need to swing into this opening and grab the ledge. Climb up inside where you’ll find the Strange Fruit sitting on the floor. Fans of Naughty Dog’s old work probably won’t find it too strange at all, though, as it looks like something a certain bandicoot would love.

Once you nab the final Relic, your trophy should pop. Congratulations! For more help with Uncharted 4, check out our expanding wiki!
