Alright, my fellow gamer, you’ve hit the jackpot with that question! “Resident Evil Requiem” is the latest nightmare fuel from Capcom, just released on February 27, 2026, and it’s a doozy. You’re clearly looking to expand your carrying capacity for all those essential herbs and shotgun shells, and I’m here to help you get those precious Hip Pouches for Grace Ashcroft!

Unlike Leon S. Kennedy, who upgrades his attaché case with a “Case Upgrade” for 4,000 credits, Grace relies on finding Hip Pouches to increase her inventory space. Each Hip Pouch grants her an additional two inventory slots, which is absolutely vital for surviving the horrors of the Rhodes Hill Care Center. There are a total of four Hip Pouches for Grace to find throughout the game, and it’s highly recommended to grab them as soon as they become available.

Here are all the Hip Pouch locations for Grace in Resident Evil Requiem:

* **Hip Pouch #1: Care Center Parlor (1F West Wing)**
You’ll find the first Hip Pouch in the Parlor, located on the first floor of the Care Center’s West Wing. To access this Hip Pouch, you’ll need to open a glass cabinet by exchanging 3x Antique Coins. You’ll also need to have progressed the story enough to find the Ruby Relic to open the Parlor door itself. Conveniently, there are often two Antique Coins within the Parlor room itself, and another in the Guard Office, making this upgrade accessible early on once the Parlor is open.

* **Hip Pouch #2: Filing Room (1F West Wing)**
The second Hip Pouch is situated in a storage area within the Filing Room, also in the northern part of the West Wing of the Care Center. To unlock this area, you’ll need to obtain the ID Wristband (Level 1), which is typically found at the top of the staircase in the East Wing. Once you have the wristband, return to the locked door in the Filing Room, and the Hip Pouch will be on a sideboard in the small storage space behind it.

* **Hip Pouch #3: Basement Processing Room (Care Center Basement)**
Your third inventory upgrade awaits in the Care Center’s Basement, specifically in the Processing Room. This area becomes accessible after you’ve taken Emily to open the Quartz puzzle box in the Security Manager’s Office and collected a couple of Joint Plugs. Once you reach the Processing Room via the Collection Pool, you’ll need to find a Forklift Key to move a nearby forklift. The Hip Pouch will be located in the room that the forklift was blocking. Make sure to grab this one, as you won’t be able to return to the Basement later!

* **Hip Pouch #4: (
