In the Resident Evil 4 remake, you can discover a multitude of treasures located in each of the three main regions. Some of them may be hidden behind puzzles, and others require "Little Keys" to access. If you come across a locked chest, you need to find the key first before you can obtain the treasure.

If you want to find the Little Keys in Resident Evil 4, which can be used to open locked chests, whether you want to complete the treasure maps from the merchant or just earn some extra cash, below are all the locations where they can be found. If you're interested in what's inside each locked chest, you can find that information in the last section of this article.

Every locked chest you find in the Resident Evil 4 remake requires a Little Key, which can be found somewhere in the same region. You can open the chests in any order, and any key can unlock any chest.

However, if you cross the point of no return in the region, you won't be able to go back and retrieve any missed treasures unless you manually saved beforehand. If you start a new game and save it after completing the game the last time, you'll have to search for and collect all the treasures again.

In Resident Evil 4, you can find eight Little Keys located in the first two regions. There are none on the island of locked chests, so make sure to collect all the necessary items before leaving the village and castle.
