Stuck on the Treasury Sword Puzzle in Resident Evil 4 Remake? Follow this guide to solve the portrait puzzle and the gate puzzle to get the Bloodied Sword.

Alright, let's tackle this Treasury Sword Puzzle in Resident Evil 4 Remake. It's one of those puzzles that looks a bit daunting at first, but once you know the logic, it's pretty straightforward. We need to get all four swords to open up the way forward.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First, head over to each of the four portraits in the room. You'll be able to collect a sword from each one. The catch is, one sword, the Bloodied Sword, is missing and locked behind another puzzle.
  2. 2
    Once you have the swords you can grab directly, you'll need to solve the Treasury Gate Puzzle to get the Bloodied Sword.
  3. 3
    Look at the symbols on the gate: an Eagle, a Stag, and a Snake.
  4. 4
    Now, look through the gate. You'll see three symbols you can shoot, but one is a Seahorse, which isn't on the gate, so ignore that one.
  5. 5
    To solve it, you need to pull the chain to the left of the gate, which corresponds to the Stag symbol.
  6. 6
    After pulling the Stag chain, you need to shoot the Eagle and the Snake symbols on the right side of the room.
  7. 7
    This will unlock the gate, allowing you to grab the Bloodied Sword.
  8. 8
    With all four swords in hand (Iron, Golden, Bloodied, and Rusted), you can now place them in the stone portraits. Here's the correct order:
  9. 9
    First Portrait: Iron Sword
  10. 10
    Second Portrait: Golden Sword
  11. 11
    Third Portrait: Bloodied Sword
  12. 12
    Fourth Portrait: Rusted Sword
Tips
  • The puzzle is all about deducing which sword belongs where based on the portraits. The first portrait shows a Knight holding his sword – simple, hence the Iron Sword.
  • The second portrait shows a Knight in golden armor being knighted. This ceremonial moment calls for the Golden Sword.
  • The third portrait depicts a knight being stabbed. The Bloodied Sword, obviously, fits this grim scene.
  • The fourth portrait shows a sword next to a gravestone, suggesting it's old and weathered, making the Rusted Sword the logical choice.
  • If you're more of a visual learner, there's a video guide linked in the source that can show you exactly how to do it.

Completing this puzzle allows you to continue the story and progress through Chapter 7.
