Resident Evil 4‘s Separate Ways DLC tells a parallel story that shows what Ada Wong was up to during Leon’s adventure. And although her grappling hook provides some fun new mobility mechanics that can help her reach new heights, she’ll still need to solve some puzzles to proceed through certain barriers. The first real puzzle to pop up in the Separate Ways journey is in Chapter 2, when your progress is impeded by a door that can only be unlocked by pressing specific symbols on a mechanism beside it. We’ll tell you the correct symbols to press below so that you can get through the door and continue Ada’s expedition.

How to open the door in Chapter 2

When you arrive at the door with the mechanism to its left, you’ll find that you can only press down three symbols before the puzzle resets. As such, you’ll need to press the correct symbols all in one go for the door to unlock. And while you can turn around and scan the area for some clues if you’d like, we’ve actually got the correct order ready for you to go below. Even better, you don’t have to press any of the symbols first or last, so just follow the image below in any order you’d like.

When you’ve pressed the correct symbols on the mechanism, you’ll find that the door opens for you and allows you to continue through Chapter 2. Don’t get too comfortable, though – there are some much trickier puzzles coming later in the game.

The information comes from a single, now-removed line of text on the Steam page. Given the speed with which FromSoftware deleted the sentence, it's likely the information wasn't meant to go public yet.

One of 2024’s most overlooked games just came to consoles. Don’t miss it twice

We are currently in something of a Metroidvania boom. With the genre reaching peak saturation, new releases -- of which there are many -- are forced to expand upon the core formula fans know and love in hopes of standing out. Take the thrilling Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist as an example, which imbues the Metroidvania with RPG systems and a focus on player builds. Momodora: Moonlit Farewell, on the other hand, believes that simple is better.

Originally released in January 2024, Moonlit Farewell is the fifth and final entry in developer Bombservice’s Momodora series. While it might not have any ostentatious additions to the basic Metroidvania formula, Moonlit Farewell’s devotion to a sleek rendition of the genre’s core pillars make it a refreshing adventure. The game went under the radar in 2024 but now, with its release on consoles, Metroidvania fans have the perfect way to tide yourself over until Hollow Knight: Silksong.
