Learn about all the Special Items (SP Items) in Resident Evil Outbreak and File #2. Find out where to get them and how they affect your gameplay.

Alright, let's talk about the Special Items, or SP Items, in Resident Evil Outbreak and its sequel, File #2. These are pretty neat collectibles scattered throughout the game that can give you a little boost. ### How SP Items Work In the original *Outbreak*, the SP Items you find are tied to randomly selected 'paths' within a scenario. This means you'll have to play each scenario multiple times to snag everything. Paths A and B are the ones you'll encounter on EASY and NORMAL difficulties, while Paths C and D are for HARD and VERY HARD. In *File #2*, it's a bit more straightforward – the items are just listed by difficulty (EASY, NORMAL, HARD, VERY HARD) with no randomization. Keep in mind that some of these SP Items are character-specific. You might find parts of a costume, and collecting all the related items will unlock that costume. Pretty cool, right? Here's a crucial tip: you can only carry eight SP Items at a time per scenario. Once you grab the eighth one, any others will vanish. So, plan your pickups carefully and be prepared for several playthroughs to get them all. Each SP Item you collect adds twenty points to your end-of-game score. And if you manage to collect all 260 SP Items across both games, including the character-exclusive ones, you'll unlock Mr. Colors in *Outbreak* and Ms. Colors in *File #2*. ### List of SP Items Below is a table detailing the SP Items. It shows their English and Japanese names, an image, the scenario they appear in, the room they're located in, which character can pick them up, and which paths (A, B, C, D) they are available on. | English name | Japanese name | Image | Scenario | Room | Character | Path A | Path B | Path C | Path D | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ["Herb Cultivation"](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Book_on_herb_cultivation "Book on herb cultivation") | ﾊｰﾌﾞ栽培の教本 | !Outbreak special item - Book on herb cultivation | "Outbreak" | Locker Room "Locker room (J's Bar)") | Any | Yes | Yes | No | No | | [Advanced glasses](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Advanced_glasses "Advanced glasses") | 多機能メガネ | !The Hive special item - Advanced Glasses | "The Hive" | [Nurses' Station](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Raccoon_General_Hospital/Nurses%27_station "Raccoon General Hospital/Nurses' station") | Yoko | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | | [Alarm clock](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Alarm_clock "Alarm clock") | 目覚まし時計 | !Outbreak special item - Alarm Clock | "Outbreak" | [Break Room](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Break_room "Break room") | George | No | No | Yes | Yes | | [Allegation memo](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Allegation_memo "Allegation memo") | 院長の疑惑メモ | !The Hive special item - Allegation Memo | "The Hive" | [Nurses' Center](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Raccoon_General_Hospital/Nurses%27_center "Raccoon General Hospital/Nurses' center") | Any | No | No | No | Yes | | [Angel set](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Angel_set "Angel set") | エンジェルセット | !The Hive special item - Angel set | "The Hive" | B1F Reposing Room | Any | No | Yes | Yes | No | | [Apple Inn towel](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Apple_Inn_towel "Apple Inn towel") | アップルインタオル | !Hellfire special item - Apple Inn towel | "Hellfire" | [Guest Room](https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Apple_Inn/Guest_room "Apple Inn/Guest room") | Any | Yes | No | No | No |
