Solving the scavenger hunt in Resident Evil Requiem is a classic puzzle-solving moment that brings a bit of nostalgia to Leon’s journey through the RPD. While navigating the S.T.A.R.S Office and sifting through the remnants of the elite team’s belongings, you will discover two cryptic images. On the back, a handwritten note from Barry Burton challenges you: “You kids have fun solving this one.”

As part of our commitment at Digital Tech Explorer to provide thorough, real-world testing and gaming insights, I’ve broken down the exact steps to locate this hidden prize. If you prefer to skip the detective work and get straight to the loot, here is the solution to Barry’s scavenger hunt.
How to Solve the Scavenger Hunt in Resident Evil Requiem
The clues provided in the S.T.A.R.S Office point to a specific corner of the police department. You will need to head to the Operations Room, located on the ground floor of the RPD’s west side.
To access the hidden item, enter the Operations Room via the West Office. Look for a stack of wooden pallets positioned near the chalkboard on the right side of the room. Climb atop these pallets and turn your perspective toward the television mounted in the hanging box. Resting on the top edge of the TV casing is the Locker Key.

Scavenger Hunt Rewards and Details
Once you have the key, return to the West Office. The specific locker is located at the back of the room. Below is a breakdown of the items you will acquire:
| Item | Effect / Use |
|---|---|
| S.T.A.R.S Emblem Charm | Increases firepower for automatic weapons, but adds significant sway while aiming. |
| Raccoon City Zoo Tickets | Lore item containing a personalized message from Barry Burton (inspect and rotate to read). |
The S.T.A.R.S Emblem Charm is an excellent tactical choice for players who favor high-damage builds, though it requires a steady hand to manage the increased weapon sway. This type of technical trade-off is exactly what we love analyzing here at Digital Tech Explorer, as it allows for deeper character customization and playstyle optimization.
