Resident Evil Requiem includes several hidden clues and unlockable content, but none of them seem as complex as the “final puzzle.”
warning! The following contains spoilers for Resident Evil Requiem.
As in recent Resident Evil games, Requiem includes a list of challenges that add completion points to the player’s score, and one of these challenges is aptly named “The Final Puzzle,” which has become quite confusing to players.
IGN has a guide in development for the final puzzle, and significant progress has been made in the complex early stages of the challenge, which appear to be more complex than anything seen in any previous Resident Evil game, and it appears that there is still a long way to go towards its conclusion.
The final reward of the puzzle is still unknown, but as the game continues to be released globally, the search for the solution will become a major focus of interest in the player community.
The game offers a vague hint for the challenge: “Let the sweet husband hear the sound,” and the puzzle mechanics, at least in the first part, seem to rely on collecting or examining a set of items to identify parts of a particular code.
The chain of clues in Requiem are based on players obtaining a specific severed hand, which can later be scanned for a hidden RNA code via a blood sample analyzer, and other items have their own codes that, after some analytical work, form a copy of the RNA sequence that can be entered into a safe bearing buttons bearing a star, sun and moon.
After that, the trail of clues pauses, but the next steps are expected to unfold soon as players progress through the game, and figuring out this type of puzzle remains a fun part of the Requiem experience.
IGN’s review of Resident Evil Requiem, which gave it a rating of 10 out of 10, stated the following: “Resident Evil Requiem represents the pinnacle of artistic and intellectual maturity in the course of the series, as it reformulates its identity by mixing pure psychological horror with intense action within an integrated experience. Its depth is evident in the design of dynamic enemies that adapt to the style of play and impose constant tension, and in a precise rhythmic structure that balances moments of overwhelming helplessness and the feeling of absolute control without disruption.”
