All Mr. Raccoon Locations in Resident Evil Requiem — Complete Collectible Guide

⚠️ Spoilers ahead — this guide covers all major areas including the final zone. If you’re still in the early campaign, use the section headers to jump directly to where you are.

💡 Before you start: A significant number of collectibles and items in RE Requiem are tied to specific story windows. Progress too far past certain triggers and the opportunity disappears permanently. Keep at least 2-3 manual save backups at points of no return — autosave alone will not protect you here.

What Are Mr. Raccoon Collectibles and Why Bother?

Mr. Raccoon memoriams are small statuettes and bobbleheads hidden throughout the campaign. Interacting with one — either a melee hit or a single shot — destroys it and adds it to your tally. The first one you find even comes with a taunting note: “Hunt us, seek us! Find us, break us!”

The reward for collecting all 25 is the “You Little Rascal” trophy/achievement, but more importantly it unlocks a permanent gameplay function: the ability to upgrade Leon’s weapons to level 3 through supply boxes. That’s not cosmetic — that’s a meaningful progression unlock, especially for NG+ and Insanity Mode runs.

💡 Raccoon Roundup Map (Rhodes Hill): There’s a special magazine in the Care Center Basement that reveals in-game locations of Mr. Raccoon memoriams. Details on how to obtain it are in the Basement section below — grab it early to cross-reference as you explore.

Care Center — First Floor (4 Collectibles)

Care Center — Second Floor (2 Collectibles)

💡 On collectible #6: This is a good example of RE Requiem’s dual-character design working against completionists. If you’re playing through Grace’s segment and notice the warped cabinet, mental note it — you’re coming back as Leon.

Care Center — Basement (3 Items Including the Raccoon Roundup Map)

Special Item: Raccoon Roundup Map (Rhodes Hill)

Character: Grace Location: Inspection area — locked safe

This magazine is worth prioritizing because it reveals in-game Mr. Raccoon locations across the Care Center and adjacent facilities. Getting it early saves backtracking.

How to unlock the safe:

1. During Leon’s segment, defeat the Chunk boss in the basement
2. Afterward, find the cabinet with a warped door nearby and read the file inside — it contains the safe combination
3. When Grace reaches the basement, open the safe using: Right 60 → Left 40 → Right 80

Care Center — Courtyard and Research Facility (2 Collectibles)

Courtyard Collectible #2 — The Balcony Shot

This is one of the most easily missed collectibles in the entire game. Here’s exactly how it works:

1. At a story trigger point, Leon acquires a sniper rifle and must shoot infected chasing Grace and Emily
2. After Grace and Emily enter the Chapel and the area is clear — do not jump down from the balcony
3. Aim your scope and look left of the gate
4. There’s a small object that appears to be moving — it’s a Mr. Raccoon bobblehead
5. One shot to destroy it

❌ Why this one gets missed: The natural instinct after clearing threats is to jump down and keep progressing. The bobblehead has no obvious visual trigger from ground level and Grace doesn’t have line of sight to it earlier due to environmental obstructions. If you jump first, you’ve missed your window.

East Raccoon City — Main Street (6 Collectibles)

❌ Collectible #4 warning: There are a high volume of enemies in the bus area. A stray shot or grenade detonation can destroy the bobblehead before you intentionally interact with it. The good news — it still registers in your tally even if it breaks from environmental damage. But you won’t see it happen, so don’t panic if you can’t find it intact.

East Raccoon City — Willis Tower and Underground (2 Collectibles)

East Raccoon City — Ridgewood Station Trains (1 Collectible)

Raccoon City Center and RPD (4 Collectibles)

💡 On the RPD section: If you’ve played Resident Evil 2 or its remake, you’ll recognize these spaces — the layout triggers a lot of nostalgia, which is exactly the point. Don’t let the environmental details distract you from sweeping every room before progressing.

ARK — Final Area (2 Collectibles)

⚠️ Final area reminder: The ARK is a point-of-no-return zone. If you’ve been tracking collectibles throughout the campaign and haven’t reached 23 before entering the ARK’s final sequence, do a count before continuing. Backtracking is not possible after certain story triggers in this area.

FAQ

Q: What do you unlock for finding all 25 Mr. Raccoon collectibles?
A: Completing the “You Little Rascal” tally unlocks the ability to upgrade Leon’s weapons to level 3 through supply boxes. It’s a permanent unlock that carries into subsequent playthroughs.

Q: Can you collect Mr. Raccoons in New Game Plus if you missed some?
A: Yes — NG+ allows you to replay the campaign and the tally tracks across runs. If you missed collectibles on your first playthrough, NG+ is the clean way to finish the set without starting from zero.

Q: Is the Raccoon Roundup Map required to find all collectibles?
A: No, but it marks locations in-game which reduces manual cross-referencing. It’s a quality-of-life item rather than a gating mechanic — use this guide alongside it for exact room positions.

Q: What happens if an enemy or explosion destroys a Mr. Raccoon before I interact with it?
A: It still counts. Destruction by any means — including accidental environmental damage — registers the collectible in your tally. The East Raccoon City bus area is the most common place this happens unexpectedly.

Q: Are any Mr. Raccoons locked behind difficulty-specific content?
A: No — all 25 are accessible on any difficulty setting. The challenge is timing and awareness, not mechanical gating.
