Ada Wong Means Business in the “Separate Ways” Launch Trailer for ‘Resident Evil 4’ [Video]
The “Separate Ways” DLC for the Resident Evil 4 remake finally got its reveal last week from Capcom. And with its release this Thursday, Capcom has unveiled the launch trailer for the Ada Wong-centered story.
Per Capcom’s press release, “Separate Ways” explores another side of the Resident Evil 4 remake, following Ada Wong on a clandestine mission that reunites the agent with Leon S. Kennedy during his search for the president’s missing daughter. Alongside the release of “Separate Ways,” a free update for “The Mercenaries” DLC will go live the same day, introducing Ada Wong and her notorious employer Albert Wesker as playable characters for the popular bonus mode.
In “Separate Ways,” Ada Wong travels to a lonely and rural part of Europe to infiltrate a village controlled by the religious group known as Los Iluminados. Under orders from Albert Wesker, Ada is assigned to obtain the cult’s darkest secret: a mysterious material known as “the Amber.” Her operation intertwines with Leon S. Kennedy’s search for the president’s missing daughter, providing an alternate perspective on the main story that uncovers events that unfold behind the scenes.
Alongside the highly acclaimed gunplay, combat, and knife mechanics of Resident Evil 4, “Separate Ways” introduces an additional feature to the experience that takes the fast-paced action to exciting new heights. For this exhilarating mission, Ada is armed with a Grappling Gun that can be used to swing across chasms, make rapid ascents, and plunge into the depths below. She can also wield the device in combat to take on enemies in close quarters and launch into melee takedowns from a distance.
Resident Evil 4 is out now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. Meanwhile, the anticipated VR Mode for Resident Evil 4 will arrive this Winter.
With the 20th anniversary of Silent Hill 4: The Room right around the corner, you’d hope that someone would give some love to this divisive entry to the series. Director Nick Merola has done just that. Much like Leigh Thorne and Ruben Abreu’s fan film Silent Hill: Road of Guilt, Merola has created a short film of his own, this time based on Silent Hill 4: The Room. On top of that, Merola has a more ambitious plan: persuading Konami to develop a television series adaptation.
Silent Hill: The Room recreates the unsettling and iconic intro scene of Silent Hill 4: The Room, where Henry Townshend (played by Brian Dole) wakes up to find himself mysteriously locked in his own apartment. Filmed in just a single day in Merola’s own apartment, the crew included extensive attention to detail. Things ranging from the chained door of room 302, to the chocolate milk in the refrigerator.
After the credits roll, Merola appears in a short message, whereupon he asks Silent Hill series producer Motio Okomoto to meet with him to discuss developing a Silent Hill TV series. “In 2022, Silent Hill series director Motio Okomoto said, ‘I hope Silent Hill lovers around the world will bring their pitches to Konami. I’ll look through every one of them.’ Well, Motio-San, here’s my pitch,” says Merola.
Merola goes on to say that he’s completed scripts and a comprehensive series bible, outlining “a 10-episode journey” through Silent Hill. “It would be a profound honor to personally present this project to [Okomoto].”
Meanwhile, we’re still waiting on Bloober Team’s upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake, coming to PC via Steam and the PlayStation 5.
