This guide details how to solve the Birthday Cake Puzzle in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, including item locations and strategies for obtaining the best outcome.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Progress through the game until you defeat mutant Jack Baker.
  2. 2
    After the fight, you will be presented with a choice: give the cure to Mia or Zoe.
  3. 3
    To achieve Ending 1 (which is generally preferred for speedruns and allows you to skip a boss fight), give the cure to Mia.
  4. 4
    To achieve Ending 2, give the cure to Zoe.
Tips
  • Giving the cure to Mia is recommended for most players as it leads to an ending that allows for a faster playthrough and skips a later boss encounter.
  • The choice does not impact collectible trophies or difficulty-related achievements.
  • If you are aiming for all endings, you will need to play through the game at least twice to see both outcomes.

The choice influences which of the two main endings you receive in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.
