Capcom has announced that Separate Ways will be released for Resident Evil 4 next week on Thursday, September 21. The new story DLC, which is inspired by the original mini-game that Capcom developed for the PS2, PC, and Wii versions of RE4, stars Ada Wong and tells the story of what the Chinese spy was up to during Leon S. Kennedy’s own little adventure in Spain, now with added weapons that include a grappling gun. A free update for The Mercenaries mode that adds Ada Wong and Albert Wesker will also be released on September 21, while RE4’s VR Mode, which promises an even scarier experience for PS VR2 owners, is coming as a free DLC update this winter.
Separate Ways tells the story of Ada Wong and her parallel journey through the events of Resident Evil 4, filling in unanswered questions from the main story. The full story will be revealed as you view both sides of events from both Ada and Leon’s viewpoints.
Before Leon S. Kennedy had even set foot in that cursed village, she was there. Her mission? The retrieval of the cult’s darkest secret—the Amber.
Now Ada must deal with an unknown threat that is devouring her from within, an accomplice with a dark past and ulterior motives, and a chance reunion with the man she least expected—Leon S. Kennedy.
Why did she accept this mission? And what path will she make for herself in the shadow of Leon’s investigation into the abduction of the president’s daughter?
