How To Unlock Cave Shrines in Resident Evil 4 Remake
At the beginning of Chapter 4 of Resident Evil 4 Remake, you will come across a shrine that is located in Mural Cave. After getting there, you will notice two hands on two sides of the Shrine. What you need to do is, you need two heads. No, not any sacrificial issue here. You will need two sculpture heads; the Apostate’s Head and Blasphemer’s Head.
No worries, the locations won’t be random. So basically, you need to travel around the lake and find these items to fit into the hands of the Shrine. Later on, it will give the key to the Church.
Alright, so to proceed to the next area of the cave, you’ll need to find this painting on the wall. It’s supposed to show you your destination. This means you will find the head items there. Let’s start with the Large Shrine.
Large Cave Shrine
Head to the Large Cave Shrine at first. There will be a locked cave on the left. To open this, you will need to find out three different symbols in the correct order. However, in the cave, you will see these symbols in Yellow markings on the cave walls. Not much of a hassle.
After you have found these symbols, return to the locked cave and push the buttons to match the symbols. You will get the Apostate’s Head from here.
Small Cave Shrine
This one’s almost similar to the first one. However, Devs did an oopsie and left some decoy symbols on the cave wall to toy with you. No need to worry, as you will find one of the symbols on the left side of the Shrine. The other ones will be on the second floor.
Now, head back down and push the buttons with the symbols that you just found out. It will give you the Blasphemer’s Head.
Mural Cave Shrine
After this, return to the Mural Cave. Now, place these two items on the hand sculptures; no need to worry about the order. After solving this, you will get the Church key from there.
