Spoiler Warning

Complete Raccoon City Orphanage Walkthrough – Resident Evil Requiem

When you enter the broken down in the orphanage, drop down and make your way through the sewers. There’s only one way through anyway. Keep going to the end and you’ll find a door with a valve on the left. Open it and go through. Turn right and vault over. Go through the metal bridge and go inside the building.

Run through the hallway. Before the turnstiles, there’s a large gunpowder by the benches. Go back and head down the staircase. Take the green herb on the floor and go inside the train. Squeeze your way through the train and once you get to the third train, an infected plant plows through. Shoot its head when it is open. A single rifle shot should do the trick.

After beating the infected plant, a cutscene triggers and you’ll find yourself down. Slide down on the right and jump up the platform. Go to the train. Loot everything around this area, including Scrap by the seat. Run to the right and go to the next train. Grab the green herb by the seat. Jump down the other side and crouch to go under the pillar. Open the container on the left for some supplies and interact with the rope to descend down to the abyss.

This area is very straightforward. Move forward and you’ll start seeing plants attack you. The area is darker than usual, so it is hard to spot them.

Keep moving forward and if you spot a dark tentacle on the ground, going through it will alert a plant. In the middle of the pathway, there’s a slight detour by taking the left path. Take it and follow the path, as it leads to a container for supplies that includes as 12.7x55mm ammo.

Return back and continue straight and fight more of the infected plants. Go straight until you reach the plants blocking the way forward. Run a bit closer to the plant until it goes up and it should expose its head for the first 2 seconds of waking up. Shoot it with a rifle. Do it for the next plant blocking the way. There’s a green herb on the left here before crossing.

After crossing the track, two more infected plants surprises you from the left and the right. Bring out your shotgun before crossing and shoot the one on the left. For the right plant, hit it with your rifle as you approach closer to bait a slam.

Infected Plant Boss

After reaching the end, a boss will block the way. It has one huge head in the middle and two tentacles on each side.

Pay attention to the left and right tentacles. When they start moving wildly, it will slam the ground on the same side. Dodge these as much as possible.

Keep shooting the head when it opens. I suggest unloading all the machine gun ammo this section kept throwing your way. The boss isn’t that tough. Once it starts wiggling uncontrollably, you’ll find a bunch of propane tanks on the right. Shoot it and that should end the boss battle.

Run forward to the huge Umbrella entrance and this triggers a cutscene. Yup, here we go again with those labs that almost signals the last part of any RE game.
