Navigating through the survival horror world of the Resident Evil 3 remake requires careful resource management and attention to environmental details. Players frequently encounter locked containers holding essential weapon modifications and inventory upgrades that aid in surviving Raccoon City. Understanding how to locate and input each RE 3 Remake safe code allows players to optimize their gear without wasting crucial supplies.
Finding the Downtown Drugstore Safe Combination
The first major safe encounter occurs in Downtown Raccoon City inside an upper-floor apartment near the pharmacy. Clues for this lock are hidden on a promotional poster located inside the neighboring pharmacy building. Dialing the mechanism left 9, right 3, and left 7 opens the vault to reward players with a valuable Dot Sight attachment for the handgun.
Cracking the Police Station West Office Safe
While exploring the police station, players will find another safe situated in the first-floor West Office. The solution for this lock is recorded on an internal memo found within the station's Dark Room. Turning the dial left 9, right 15, and left 7 unlocks the container to yield a Hip Pouch, which permanently expands inventory space.
Unlocking the Hospital Nurses Station Safe
During the hospital segment of the game, another security safe is located on the second floor inside the Nurses' Station. The clue for this combination can be discovered on a document inside the hospital's Operating Room. Entering left 9 followed by right 3 opens the safe, granting players the Dual Magazine upgrade for the assault rifle.
Best Practices for Inputting Safe Combinations
Opening safes in this entry requires precise inputs using the directional pad or analog stick to turn the dial. Players must rotate the dial to each target number without pressing the confirm button until the final digit is selected. If an error occurs during dialing, the lock resets automatically, requiring the full sequence to be entered again from the start.
