Weapon Crate Room

Your guide to the Weapons Storage room in Resident Evil 2. Learn how to access it with the Red Card Key and the crucial "zapping system" mechanic involving lockers.

Alright, let's talk about the Weapons Storage room in the Raccoon Police Station. You'll need the Red Card Key to get in here, but only after you've restored power to the area. It's not just a place to grab some extra ammo, though. This room is super important because it introduces you to the 'zapping system' in Resident Evil 2. When you check out the lockers, you'll have a choice between two items. Here's the kicker: whatever you pick, the other item is left behind. This is where the zapping system comes into play. You can decide to take both items for yourself, leave them both for the other character (Leon or Claire) to grab in their scenario, or just take one and leave the other. Think carefully about what you need most right now, because your choice will affect what's available later!
