The Silent Hill 2 Remake Chained Box has several codes and combinations that players need to find, as well as a straightforward key for one of its three locks. These are all different puzzles that are solved in different sections of the hospital, and some of them can be real brain teasers. Fortunately, we're here to walk you through the process, and all the different codes you need to find across this especially grizzly section of the Silent Hill 2 Remake.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake Chained Box appears after you've cleared the Silent Hill 2 Remake Director's Office Safe, reached the roof and had a run in with Laura and the Flesh Lip boss fight.

There are three locks on the Chained Box to deal with - a combination cylinder lock, a key, and a keypad code - which can all be opened by following one of the chains leading away from the box, which will lead to different puzzle to solve for each.

You'll need to find two codes and a key to get the box open by completing these puzzles:

Once you've completed all three of these the box will finally open and you'll be able to see what's inside, before moving on to deal with both the Silent Hill 2 Remake rings.
