Resident Evil Revelations 2 - Ep 3: Destroy Prometheus, solve the deadly door puzzle and escape the factory

Destroy the Prometheus statue, escape the deadly factory inferno and solve the Overseer’s fearsome four-door puzzle without spilling blood.

With the second piece of Replica Liver in your possession, head left and use both parts on the statue of Prometheus blocking the doors. Immediately take a couple of steps back to avoid the imminent explosion, then - once the route ahead is clear - pass on through the doors.

In the next area, head up the nearby steps and move through the yellow door on the left. Here, you'll find a couple of breakable crates and a Green Herb in the corner of the room. Leave the room via either of the yellow doors and take a left, continuing along to the end of the passageway. When you reach it, make your way through the blue double doors.

As you enter the next room, your route back will be barred. Make your way forwards and prepare for some excitement as the ground begins to shake and a loud voice booms through the air. Make your way through the blue door ahead and follow the corridor around to the right. Climb the steps, then pass through the shuttered door.

How to escape the factory

As you enter the next area, a huge explosion will rock the factory innards, and a clock will start ticking down to zero on-screen. You have exactly five minutes to escape, so it's imperative that you work quickly from this point on.

Step onto the metal walkway and begin following it around to the left. There's a broken ladder directly ahead so dash on over - noting the spewing jet flame to your right - and give Moira a boost to the upper level. With Moira now under your control, follow the steps down to the right and wait by the spewing flame.

Next, switch back to Claire and quickly look for the large red valve near the broken ladder. Turn it to clear Moira's route forward. Resume control of Moira and look for the valve directly ahead, turning it once you're close enough.

As soon as the flames on the lower level that you noted earlier recede, switch control to Claire and sprint down the now-accessible steps. Continue along the walkway and climb the ladder at the very end. At the top, spin the nearby valve to clear Moira's route ahead, then turn your attention to the hammer-wielding mutant lying on the ground directly below the flame you just shut off. Empty a few rounds into it and, once it's dead, continue along the walkway.

Two mutants attack here so deal with them quickly, run down the stairs ahead and smash the crate as the walkway bends round. Climb the steps at the end, descend the staircase ahead, and follow the walkway along until you reach another spewing flame.

Resume control of Moira and move forward along the walkway, heading down the steps. Grab the Green Herb from the crate, then lift the movable cage. Place it below the broken ladder hanging from the walkway nearby and climb on up. At the top, follow the walkway around, spinning the valve when you reach it. Finally, descend the ladder and join Claire on the walkway below.

Solve the four door puzzle

Immediately switch back to Claire and proceed along the walkway, taking a right at the end. Four doors sit to your left and there's a helpful 'Four Gates' document on the nearby table.

Approach the right-hand corner of the walkway and - when the pipe drops down from above - interact with it to boost Moira to the upper platform. Guide Moira along the path ahead and note the staircase leading up to the left.

There's a chest at the top containing a Parts Box. You need to solve the lock-picking mini-game four times in order to open it - so make sure you have plenty of time before giving it a go. Whether you choose to open it or not, your final destination is down the steps ahead. Follow the walkway down, then glance to your left once the pathway opens out.

Identify the doorway that isn't booby-trapped with spikes - it should be the second from the left on Claire's side - then switch back to Claire and pass on through. Finally, head through the shuttered door to escape the blazing factory inferno behind you.
