Whether you’re playing as Leon or Claire, you’ll find it in the West Office, 1F, nearest the door leading back out into the Main Hall once you eventually get the Spade Key. Unlike the safe codes, portable safe solutions and locker codes - which technically require further clues to find later in the game - the Leon Desk Puzzle solution is able to be solved there and then. Looking for something else from the game? Visit our Resident Evil 2 walkthrough for more help. There is also a File here explaining how it works - you need to read the names of all the desks in the room to give you the answer. Our full Resident Evil 2 walkthrough explains every aspect’s of Leon and Claire’s campaigns, including Locker Code solutions, the Leon Desk puzzle solution, all Resident Evil 2 Safe Codes and Portable Safe solutions, Hiding Place locations, how to survive Mr X fights and the Chess Plug puzzle solution.

Crack it open, and you’ll receive a different reward per character. Leon will receive the High-Capacity Mag (Matilda), while Claire gets the Speed Loader (SLS) - both handgun upgrades. That’s about it - now time to keep going through the Police Station, which our Resident Evil 2 walkthrough can help you with. Happy exploring!
