After spending an entire weekend combing through Rhodes Hill and Raccoon City, I was stuck at 24/25 Mr. Raccoon Memoriam statues. No chapter select, several areas locked behind story progression, and I had no idea which one I’d missed. The breakthrough came when I started tracking them room by room and realized how easy it is to walk straight past the rooftop garden statue and the library one.
This guide walks you through all 25 Mr. Raccoon Memoriam figures in Resident Evil Requiem, in story order, with exact locations and who can reach them (Leon vs. Grace). Destroying all 25 unlocks the “You Little Rascal!” trophy/achievement, contributes to the corresponding Challenge entry, and, based on current versions, grants an extra weapon upgrade rank for Leon.
If you’re aiming for 100% or planning efficient New Game+ runs, doing these in order and keeping manual saves will save you a ton of frustration. If I could claw my way back from 24/25, you can absolutely get this trophy in a clean run.
Before diving into locations, here’s what I wish I’d known on my first run:
Main Menu → Bonuses → Challenges and look for the Mr. Raccoon / Rascal entry to see how many you’ve destroyed in total (it won’t show per-zone breakdown).Bonus Menu → Shop that mark raccoon locations, which is great for cleanup runs.With that in mind, let’s go area by area, in story order, so you can sweep each location before pushing the plot forward.
You’ll first encounter Mr. Raccoon figures in the Care Center. Here you’re mostly safe to poke around, but don’t make my early mistake of bee-lining every objective and ignoring side rooms.
After you cut through your first door using the chainsaw, step into the next room and look straight ahead. The statue is sitting on the fireplace mantel directly in front of you. Very easy to get tunnel vision and walk past this one.
When you use the East Wing Keycard on the Central Hall door to the East Wing, the lobby you enter has a reception desk right opposite the door. The raccoon is on top of that reception counter, almost dead center in your field of view.
From the Waiting Room, take the corridor leading east. Follow it all the way down until just before the stairs up to the Chief Researcher’s Office. The statue is at the very end of this corridor, tucked near the corner before the staircase.
Use the Level 1 Bracelet on the door south of the main kitchen, then go up the stairs to a small kitchenette. The Mr. Raccoon is next to the sink. This room is easy to skip if you’re rushing objectives, so deliberately detour here once you have the bracelet.
Go through the Security Office until you reach the area with a little girl locked in a cell. With the Level 3 Bracelet (story item), interact with the empty cell on the left (the one without the girl). The raccoon is behind the bed inside that cell.
You’ll hear this one chattering from inside the Records Room. The statue is locked inside a sturdy cabinet that only Leon can break with his axe. As Grace you cannot open it, so make sure you destroy this statue while controlling Leon or you’ll have to grab it in a later playthrough.
These two are in the basement, accessed during Grace’s section. They’re fairly straightforward but still easy to rush past during the tension.
At the far end of the Holding Cells corridor, use the Union Plug on the door to the Workshop. As soon as you enter, check the workbench on your right. The statue is right there.
In the corridor right of the Security Room (marked with a yellow “!” on the map), insert another Union Plug in the Boiler Room. Several doors unlock. Go into the room immediately to the right of where you used the plug. The raccoon is sitting on top of the TV.
After solving the VIP room puzzle, you’ll ride an elevator down into an underground base. Progress the story until you reach the Private Lab where you have to use a computer. In the same room, the statue is on the desk to your right as you enter.
This one nearly cost me the platinum. Once you regain control of Leon on the rooftop, jump through the window and cross the roof until you go down the left-hand side. Climb the external staircase ahead but do not go through the wooden door at the top.
From the top of the stairs, turn 90° left, aim down between the staircase and the metal fence. Look towards the garden lamps below: the Mr. Raccoon is perched on the base of the second lamp. You’ll need a rifle with a scope to hit it from here. If you don’t have the sniper yet, don’t go through that wooden door until you do, or you risk locking yourself out for that run.
Once you hit East Raccoon City with Leon, the game opens up. This single zone contains nine statues, more than a third of the total. I strongly recommend making a manual save at the Central Camp and sweeping the area methodically.
At the first street intersection as you enter Raccoon City, turn right. The first open building on your left is the Café Oasis, just before the Hotel Applegate. Go behind the bar counter; the statue is on a shelf behind the counter.
On the rooftop of the logistics warehouse, you’ll pick up the Distributor story item and the game briefly forces you to use binoculars. After that, face back toward the elevator and look out over the highway to the east.
The raccoon is sitting on top of a crashed van on the highway, just in front of a delivery truck. This is another one where a scoped rifle makes your life much easier; with a pistol you’re basically wasting ammo and guessing.
After you obtain the Cedarbrook Apartments Key, use it on the gate at the Central Camp next to the elevator. Head down and take the door on the right. At the first enemy, where the game teaches you stealth kills, go into the room on the left. The statue is on a box inside.
Progress the story until you collect two batteries and open the gate in the flooded garage. When you exit, turn left to trigger a cutscene where you get the BSAA Container Keys. After the scene, you’re on the street outside Cedarbrook. Walk a little west and look inside the parked bus – the raccoon is in the driver’s seat.
Inside Cedarbrook, keep going until you acquire the Crank. Return to the upper balcony and use it on the locked gate. Go up the stairs, turn right into the upper floor, then head right again toward the interior staircase and walk to the very end of the corridor. The statue is inside an open fridge. This is the top floor, just before you reach the rooftop – don’t go back down the stairs until you’ve got it.
Back on the street outside Cedarbrook, look at the opposite sidewalk. Shoot the hanging ladder to drop it, climb up and drop down into the gas station lot to the north. Enter the gas station – the raccoon is on a metal shelf inside.
Head to the far west end of the main road where a large crane sits. Activate the switch to create a shortcut back to the Central Camp. While you’re crossing this new route, look down and to your left: the statue is inside an open sewer pipe beneath you. This is another one I missed the first time because I was sprinting; walk slowly and listen for the sound.
On the main road between the gas station and Central Camp, use the Fuel Can (from the gas station) on the generator next to the large crane. Go through the newly opened gate and down the stairs into the underground. Follow the path until you reach a train car at Ridgewood Station. The raccoon is on a passenger seat inside.
With the same Fuel Can, return to the Central Camp and ride the elevator up to the rooftop. Go down the stairs on the right to another generator, fuel it, and hit the red button to power the zipline. Ride the zipline to Willis Tower. From where you land, climb the stairs, turn right, and follow the sofas into a side room. The statue is on a shelf inside.
Once you’ve grabbed #11–19, you’re done with East Raccoon City. I like to make a fresh manual save here before continuing, just in case my count is off.
After the motorcycle chase section, when Leon is back on foot, angle slightly left down the street. The Mr. Raccoon is on the ground among the debris in front of a destroyed tanker truck. It blends in with the rubble, so rely on the sound cue.
Inside the Operations Room, check the left side where the room is partially collapsed. The statue is tucked behind a wooden barricade in the rubble. You might need to inch your aim around to spot it between planks.
From the Operations Room, go south and then left until you reach a closed shutter. Look up and shoot the ladder to drop it, then climb into the Library on the second floor.
In the Library, focus on the big central bookshelf. Go to the north side of that shelf and crouch. Aim at the lower row of shelves, second from the left: the Mr. Raccoon is hidden inside the bookcase, behind a stack of books, right by the Mechanical Cat puzzle item. If you don’t know it’s there, you will walk right past it; listen carefully for the sound to confirm you’re in the right spot.
After the Orphanage section, Leon eventually exits the R.P.D. and enters Kendo’s Gun Shop. As soon as the cutscene ends, turn around and head into the open alley beside the shop. Walk to the end and then look up: the statue is in an open window to the left of an Umbrella sign. This is a pure nostalgia hit for Resident Evil 2 fans, so take a second to soak it in after you blow the raccoon away.
When you first enter ARK, you’ll walk through a decontamination tunnel. As soon as you exit that tunnel, turn right. The statue is tucked behind a box in the corridor. Easy to miss if you just march straight ahead.
Controlling Grace, you’ll pass through a tense area full of Lickers and sealed containers. At the end of this sequence, you automatically arrive in an Operations Room where you pick up the Noble Orb (red briefcase). In this same room, the final Mr. Raccoon is on the left side of the room, in front of the large monitor. Grab this one and you should see your challenge and trophy pop shortly afterward if you’ve hit everything else.
For quick reference, here’s how the statues are distributed:
To reliably secure the “You Little Rascal!” trophy without three or four extra playthroughs, this is the approach that finally worked for me:
Once you internalize where the real troublemakers (#10 and #22 especially) are, the route becomes surprisingly manageable. Run by run, your muscle memory will handle most of the early ones automatically, and you’ll be free to focus on survival instead of staring at every bookshelf.
If you follow this guide in order, keep those manual saves, and make sure you have the sniper ready for the long shots, you should walk away with all 25 Mr. Raccoons and the “You Little Rascal!” trophy in a single, well-planned playthrough.
