Resident Evil 4 remake Separate Ways DLC out next week on Xbox

If you've finished up with all the Resident Evil 4 achievements and are looking for other reasons to come back, then good news: the Separate Ways DLC arrives next week on September 21. It'll be paid DLC, but a free update arrives for The Mercenaries mode on the same day.

Resident 4 Separate Ways DLC arrives on September 21

"The mission requires secrecy. Failure is not an option. Play as Ada Wong in this additional scenario and experience the events of Resident Evil 4 from her perspective, filling in unanswered questions posed in the main story," Capcom says. "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 she 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."

Ada's DLC will add a grappling gun which can be used to reach other areas and also as a ranged weapon, allowing for "a more exciting and fast-paced gameplay experience."

Meanwhile, the update for The Mercenaries will add Ada Wong and Albert Wesker as new playable characters, and you won't need the Separate Ways DLC to get the update. The update for The Mercenaries arrives on the same day as the Separate Ways DLC on September 21.
