Monocular Key location in Resident Evil Village – Shadows of Rose

You won’t be able to obtain the Monocular Key until you have found the RW-Variant Flask 1 and 2. They are necessary to obtain the key. The first flask can be found in the section of the castle where the library is and is required so that you can destroy the Mutamycete Cores around the castle. Once you have the flask, head back to the center of the courtyard and go back inside the castle through the Dining Room.

Go back to the Main Hall section of the map and destroy the Cores blocking the way to the second floor.
