How to Get Filling Room Hip Pouch
1
Dead Researcher
To get the second hip pouch, you will need to get the ID Wristband (Level 1), which can be found on the dead researcher's body on the 2nd floor of the East Wing, just past the Lead Researcher's Office.
Note: This is where you will encounter Chunk, who is roaming around the area. Be careful when trying to get the wristband.
2

Go inside the Filling Room located on the second floor of the West Wing.
3
Hip Pouch 2
Use the wristband to open the door inside and obtain the hip pouch on the top of the cabinet.

The second hip pouch is located inside the Filling Room, located on the second floor of the West Wing. However, it is locked behind a door inside the Filling Room, which will need the ID Wristband (Level 1) to open it. The wristband can be found on the dead researcher's body on the 2nd floor of the East Wing.

Processing - Hip Pouch 3

How to Get Processing Room Hip Pouch
1
Forklift Key
After obtaining the second joint plug during the Basement section of the main story, obtain the Forklift Key located on the dead body near the blocked door on the left of the Processing room.
2
Forklift Machine
Move the forklift blocking the door by using the Forklift Key on the machine near the blocked door.
3 Turn the power back on inside the Processing room by using your Joint Plug in the machine across the door. This will unlock the door containing the third hip pouch.
4
Hip Pouch 3
Go inside the unlocked door and obtain your reward, which is placed at the top of the table.

The third hip pouch is found inside the left room in Processing in the Basement.

This is one of the easier ones to get, as you only need to obtain the Forklift Key on the dead body near the room and use it to remove the forklift blocking the way to the pouch.

Bioweapon Respository 05 - Hip Pouch 4

White Button

To get the final hip pouch, you must first reach the ARK, which is the final area of the story. You will need to go inside Bioweapon Repository 05 to proceed. Once inside, there will be a licker and a container in front of you.

Open the container by pressing the white button to find the hip pouch inside, but be warned, as this will alert nearby lickers around you.

How to Increase Inventory Size

You will need to collect Hip Pouches to unlock two inventory slots for Grace. There are four pouches in total, and they can be found throughout the map, usually behind locked doors.

To upgrade Leon's inventory size, you will need to buy Case Upgrade (8x13) from Supply Boxes. You can start purchasing in Supply Boxes once you reach the BSAA Tent in Central Camp in East Raccoon City.

This is the only inventory upgrade for Leon in the game and costs 4,000 Credits.
