Steal the Artifact
Steal the Artifact is a free for all game mode in the multiplayer portion of Assassin's Creed: Revelations.
Description
The objective of the game is to steal an artifact and hold onto it for as long as possible to achieve the highest score. The game is played by 4-8 players and consists of one ten minute round. Upon spawning in, there will be one artifact that each player will be aiming to retrieve. Once you steal the artifact, you will become a target until you are killed. Whoever killed the artifact carrier will take possession of the artifact and will be teleported to another location on the map, to avoid being immediately killed by the other Templars who were also chasing after the artifact.[1]
Whilst you are carrying the artifact, you will receive a higher score depending on the amount of pursuers who are chasing you. You will also receive an extra bonus if you managed to survive up to two minutes with the artifact. Additionally, if you hide whilst carrying the artifact you will receive a score bonus, especially if your pursuers are near your location. It is also more beneficial if you hide while in possession of the artifact, as running with it causes an icon to appear over the character and the other Templars are able to track your location.[2]
