What is the STARS briefcase code in Resident Evil Requiem?

Finding the STARS briefcase code in Resident Evil Requiem will have you searching every nook and cranny in the library of the Raccoon City Police Department (RPD). It's less full of zombies than it was during the Raccoon City Incident, but there's no shortage of books to trawl through if you don't know where to look. On top of that, there's a missing library book that you'll need to search for.

Below, we explain how to find Resident Evil Requiem's STARS briefcase code, where to find the missing library book, and what rewards you'll find inside the briefcase.

Where to find the STARS briefcase code in Resident Evil Requiem

As you explore the STARS Office in RPD, you'll find a locked briefcase in the locker room area. This area is completely optional, so it's easy to miss if you aren't exploring the entire building.

Like with the West Office locker, you can technically just open the briefcase once you know the code without finding the puzzle clues that tell you the code. If you'd like to open the briefcase right away, feel free to skip ahead to the end of the guide. If you'd like to find all of the hints and collect all of the files, continue on to the next section.

Where to find the missing library book in RPD in Resident Evil Requiem

Before we begin the search for the missing library book, it's important to note that you need to interact with every file mentioned below in order to interact with the missing book. If you skip a file, the book will still appear, but you won't be able to interact with it.

As you exit the locker room, you'll find Barry's to-do list on the desk ahead of you. The to-do list tells you that Barry's top priority was finding the missing library book, and the only information that we're given is that the captain checked it out last.

Head into the smaller office and interact with the desk drawer. At first, it'll appear that there's nothing inside, but a file will fall into the drawer after a short amount of time. When you interact with it, you'll find that it's a library card showing the checkout history for the book, Medicinal Benefits of Herbs. It appears that Wesker checked out the book, but returned it a couple of days later, so it's time to head back to the library.

The book in question is found on the second floor. Head up the stairs, walk across the walkway, and look at the shelf to the right of the door. (The door is permanently closed, so there aren't any jumpscares to worry about here.)

Inside, you'll find a photograph of Rebecca Chambers in a unit cheerleading outfit. Turn it over to find the STARS briefcase code: Rising Rookie Rebecca, or in combination terms, RRR.

What is the STARS briefcase code in Resident Evil Requiem?

Interact with the briefcase in the STARS Office and input the code, RRR, to receive the Power Shades charm. This one is for the Requiem handgun, and it lets bullets penetrate as many enemies as you can line up for a shot. It also makes the gun's last bullet more powerful. There's no drawback to equipping this charm, so go ahead and do it the next time you're at an automated supply box.
