Resident Evil Requiem peppers Racoon City with mysterious BSAA containers that players can open once they claim the BSAA key during the story. These hidden stashes don’t just offer extra ammo and equipment—they’re pivotal for advancing the narrative and snagging the "Crate Expectations" trophy. The way these containers unfold adds a unique twist, blending exploration with survival. Tracking down every container helps turn the tide in your favor, expanding both your arsenal and your mastery of the city’s dangers.
In Resident Evil Requiem, the BSAA containers are scattered in specific spots throughout Racoon City, requiring the BSAA key obtained mid-story to open them. Although the game mentions four containers, there are effectively three you can access, as the initial container doubles as the spot where you pick up the key. Identifying these containers and unlocking them is critical, both for story progression and collecting valuable supplies.
Once you receive the BSAA key during the plot, it will appear in your inventory, allowing access to all BSAA containers in the game world. Despite official claims of four containers, only three exist, with the first being the very location where you acquire the key itself.
The first BSAA Container resides in Central Camp, which serves as your home base during this chapter. This container is the sole mandatory one for progressing through the game. Inside, you'll find a repair kit and an essential motorcycle, both critical for surviving the relentless challenges ahead.
Because Central Camp is a frequent hangout, you’ll quickly gain access to this container. It's your first taste of the valuable gear these crates hold, combining convenience with necessity.
The second BSAA container is nestled near the Gas Station where you contend for fuel. After the skirmish, take the road to the right and locate a ladder leading up onto a stack of containers. Climb up and hop down the other side to reach the crate.
Prepare for a small ambush inside the container, as zombies lurk within. Fortunately, there’s an explosive barrel nearby that can quickly clear them out if you time your shots right. Unlocking this container rewards you with a new rifle and some ammo, giving you an edge in upcoming fights.
Taking advantage of environmental hazards here is key; it turns a potentially nerve-wracking fight into a quick, satisfying encounter with a well-timed explosion.
The third BSAA container waits beyond a gate to the left of the Gas Station. You’ll have to fuel up a nearby generator to open this gate. Once powered, follow the path, which loops back towards Racoon City’s start point. This container not only provides crucial supplies but also unlocks the "Crate Expectations" trophy.
This final container offers a rewarding conclusion to your search for these elusive stashes. Its placement encourages backtracking and exploration, ensuring players remain engaged with the city’s layout and hazards until the very end.
