Resident Evil Requiem: STARS Office Briefcase Code Solution

The armory smells of dust and stale coffee; a battered briefcase sits quietly on a shelf like a dare. I crouched, rifled through a stack of file folders, and saw a scrap that pointed me down a hallway. If you want that case open, follow the breadcrumbs I pulled together.

There was a sticky note tucked under Barry’s keyboard — How to open the STARS Office briefcase in Resident Evil Requiem

I found the first hint on Barry Burton’s desk: a terse to-do list with one item circled — the missing library book. From there it’s old-school scavenger work: you read files, you search offices, and you let a handful of clues form a trail.

Step one: read Barry’s To-Do List on the far-left desk in the S.T.A.R.S. Office. It names the missing book and drops a small detail: the captain checked it out last. That captain is Albert Wesker, and his office is nearby.

Step two: open Wesker’s desk drawer. You’ll find a Library Card noting Wesker borrowed Medicinal Benefits of Herbs and returned it two days later. That sends you to the Raccoon City Police Department library.

Step three: the book sits on the second floor of the library, on the far side of the bridge. When you grab it and flip through, you’ll find a poster inside — Rebecca Chambers in an RPD uniform, clutching a basketball. Flip it and read the handwriting: Rising Rookie Rebecca.

That phrase — Rising Rookie Rebecca — is the code. Head back to the S.T.A.R.S. Office armory and enter RRR on the briefcase. Inside: the Power Shades Charm, a small fan-service reward that fits perfectly in a game built by Capcom for players who hunt every corner — whether you play on Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox.

What is the code for the STARS briefcase in Resident Evil Requiem?

The code is RRR. You can reach it without spoiler-blasting the story: read Barry’s note, check Wesker’s drawer for the Library Card, and pull the herb book on the second-floor bridge. The poster inside names the code outright.

Where is the STARS Office briefcase located?

It sits in the S.T.A.R.S. Office armory inside the RPD building — the same room where Barry’s desk and Wesker’s office live. In short: the RPD’s second floor cluster of rooms is where the clue chain begins and ends.

What do you get from the STARS briefcase?

You receive the Power Shades Charm. Equipped to Leon’s Requiem hand cannon, it increases penetration and boosts the firepower of the last round in the cylinder — a neat mechanical wink to Wesker’s sunglasses and the series’ history.

A faded poster leaned against a shelf — Why this little easter egg matters

Finding Rebecca’s poster is a small, human beat: a callback to classic Resident Evil 2 that rewards patient players. It’s fan-service that doesn’t trade on cheap nostalgia; it ties a tactile puzzle to a collectible prize, and it rewards observation the way a detective novel rewards reading between the lines.

The clue trail plays out like a thread through a burned-out house, and that pacing keeps you moving: file, drawer, card, book, poster, armory. Capcom built that breadcrumb loop to make exploration feel meaningful, and outlets like Moyens I/O have documented it with screenshots that help players on any platform.

Practical tip: if you want the charm fast, focus on the S.T.A.R.S. Office files (Barry’s desk) and Wesker’s drawer first — the rest is plumbing. Equip the charm when you expect heavy armored targets or when you want that last cylinder round to sting.

Does this kind of easter egg feel like affectionate fan service or a safe retread of old beats — and which do you prefer in a modern Resident Evil?
