Follow this guide to grab the Helmet Key after the boss fight in Resident Evil, navigate back through the Guardhouse, and prepare for the next challenge.
Alright, you just took down that boss! Nice work. Now, head down the stairs and snag the HELMET KEY from the fireplace. Once you've got it, make your way back to the GALLERY through those double doors.
- 1You're in the GALLERY now. Just run straight for GUARDHOUSE HALLWAY 2.
- 2In GUARDHOUSE HALLWAY 2, head back towards the GUARDHOUSE HALLWAY. You'll run into Wesker here – just watch his little scene, and then head back to the GUARDHOUSE HALLWAY.
- 3From there, make your way back to the GUARDHOUSE SAVE ROOM.
- 4This is a good spot to restock on GRENADE LAUNCHER ammo. Trust me, the next part is a bit rough. Make sure you've got your HELMET KEY handy and definitely save your game.
- 5Now, exit the save room and head outside from the GUARDHOUSE HALLWAY.
- 6You'll be at the GUARDHOUSE ENTRANCE. Just run back down towards the GUARDHOUSE GARDEN.
- 7In the GUARDHOUSE GARDEN, hop on the lift and ride it up to the POND ROOM.
- 8In the POND ROOM, you'll need to run across the pond. Watch out for those snakes! After you've crossed, head back to the GARDEN.
- 9Back in the GARDEN, make your way to the SHED.
- 10Inside the SHED, Barry's left you some goodies. Grab everything, especially the ACID ROUNDS, because a new monster is about to show up. Then, head into the EXIT HALL.
We're back in the mansion, and honestly, after dealing with Lisa, those plants, and the sharks, it's a relief! We need to explore the rest of the mansion to find more clues, maybe even figure out how to get behind that waterfall near the GUARDHOUSE. This return trip to the mansion isn't too long, usually taking about 5 to 15 minutes, depending on which ending you're aiming for. Good luck!
