Follow this Resident Evil walkthrough to solve the Control Room puzzle and obtain the DEATH MASK III. Learn the shark tank sequence and lever puzzle to progress.

Alright, you're about to get your hands on a key item, the DEATH MASK III. This part involves a bit of a puzzle in the Control Room, and you'll need to be quick when the shark shows up!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, head down the ladder.
  2. 2
    Make your way over to the table with the white board on it. You need to find a number written there – it'll be either a 1, 2, or 3. Keep that number in mind!
  3. 3
    Now, go over to the giant window. Things are about to get exciting because a shark is going to smash through it, and a countdown will begin. Don't panic!
  4. 4
    As soon as the shark breaks through, press the computer switch located near the window.
  5. 5
    Quickly turn around (use the C-Stick for this) and make a diagonal run towards the other computer switch. Press that one.
  6. 6
    From this second console, head directly left to find a lever. Pull it.
  7. 7
    Now, go into the hallway right next to you. Turn left, and you should see a tank with red and green lights on it.
  8. 8
    The game will ask you to press BUTTON 1, 2, or 3. This is where that number from the white board comes in – press the corresponding number.
  9. 9
    Head back to the second computer console you activated and press it again.
  10. 10
    Return to the lever and pull it one more time.
  11. 11
    Finally, go back to where the shark is banging on the window and press that switch.
Tips
  • Remembering that number on the whiteboard is crucial. If you get it wrong, you'll have to do this part over.
  • The diagonal run after the shark breaks the window is key to reaching the second console in time. Don't hesitate!
  • Pay attention to the lights on the tank; they're a visual cue for the puzzle.
