Where to find Resident Evil Requiem hip pouches and increase inventory space

Find all four Resident Evil Requiem hip pouches and you'll double your inventory size as Grace. One of her main weaknesses is not being able to carry much so these little extra bags are invaluable, letting you add two slots to your inventory for each one you can get. If you find them all you'll add a whole extra two rows to your initial capacity. So each one you find means less time trying to work out what to drop, or ferrying things back to your stash, to make room for other things.

All Resident Evil Requiem hip pouch locations

You'll have to buy the first hip pouch you can find in the parlor you can access behind the Resident Evil Requiem Unicorn Door, using the antique coins you'll discover as you explore. That one is set up as an unmissable thing you have to find as part of your basic progression. After that other three are also hard to miss but it's not impossible. So check all the locations below to make sure you don't overlook any, and get the most out of your Resident Evil Requiem inventory space.

1. Your first hip pouch is an unlockable upgrade in the Care Center Parlour on the first floor. It'll cost 3 coins.
2. There's a RE9 hip pouch behind the Level 1 locked door in the ground floor Care Center Filing Room storeroom. You'll need the Level 1 wrist band to get it.
3. There's a hip pouch in the Care Center Basement Processing area, in a room behind the forklift you can raise.
4. The last Hip Pouch is in the first Umbrella crate you can reach and open in the Ark Bioweapon Repository 05.

As I mentioned earlier, each one of these will add two boxes to your inventory, so eight extra slots in total which will double what you can carry as Grace, which makes a big difference. Leon, with his massive magic briefcase, doesn't have such problems so you won't have to worry about finding any as him (although there is a case upgrade available when you unlock the ability to upgrades Leon's gear later). Unfortunately these inventory upgrades don't carry over so you'll need to get them each playthrough, but the extra slots you get each time will always be useful.
