Resident Evil 4 Courtyard Labyrinth: How to Raise All Flags

In the ninth chapter of the game, Leon and Ashley will go out into an open courtyard, broken into paths by a thick hedge. In this guide we tell you how to get through the maze and solve the puzzle with flags in Resident Evil 4 (2023).

How to complete the labyrinth in the Courtyard in chapter 9

Location of all levers in the maze

The labyrinth in the Yard is shown in the diagram above. At the indicated points there are levers that raise the banners above each of the three towers, which is what is required to open the next gate. Focusing on this map, you can easily go through the necessary points on your own, but below we will also consider in detail all the stages of this puzzle.

Note: while wandering around the back streets of the courtyard, from time to time you will be attacked by enemies, so keep your weapons ready.

First lever

The first tower is located right in the center of the courtyard, where you will get to anyway, going down from the steps of the castle. There is no point in delaying the solution of the puzzle, so look around for useful items and ammunition, and then climb up and lower the first lever.

Second lever

The next lever is located in the southeast corner of the courtyard, on the way to it it will be possible to pick up and marked on the map treasure. A detailed diagram of the passage of the labyrinth in the screenshot above.

Third lever

The last lever is a little more difficult to find than the previous ones. First you need to get to the southwest corner of the labyrinth, where there will be a switch that opens a temporary passage to the third tower. Ask Ashley to hold it and immediately go around to the recently locked grate that you met on the way to the hidden lever in the corner. Now it will be open, and you can go upstairs and complete the hoisting of all the flags.

As is often the case, as soon as you are separated from your partner, she will be attacked by a wave of enemies. After interacting with the last lever, you should rush to help, but the risk will be justified - the road is open further, and you can continue this adventure together.
