Resident Evil Village Piano Puzzle Guide: How to Solve & What it Gets You

Resident Evil Village may carry on the newer first-person style of gameplay seen in RE7, but it’s as chock-full of puzzles as any other entry in the series. There’s one, in particular, that might be tripping you up, and if you’ve found that you need help figuring out how to solve the piano puzzle in Resident evil Village, rest assured that you’re not alone.

That’s why we’ve put together this guide. Below you’ll find info on how to solve the puzzle, what doing so will get you, and more.

How to Solve the Piano Puzzle in Resident Evil Village

Found in Dimitrescu’s castle, the piano puzzle in Resident Evil Village is pretty straightforward: Play the notes shown on the sheet music provided to you, and you’ll be rewarded with something hidden in the instrument. The only problem is, you may not have the musical know-how to properly play each note in order without screwing up.

Fortunately, the puzzle is deceptively easy. Once you play the correct note, the puzzle will register you as having played that portion of the song correctly even if you mess up the next note. This means you can press every key until you get the right one, do the same for the next note in the song, and so on and so forth until you’ve completed the puzzle.

Is it a little busted? Sure. At the same time though, it’s a godsend and will save you tons of time that would be wasted on trial and error.

What Solving the Piano Puzzle Gets You

Some will need to be unlocked in order to progress the main story, while others hide treasures and secret weapons you can pursue for additional funds and armaments.
