Fans of the original Resident Evil 4 game will remember Separate Ways, a side-story and minigame available in the release. In this short story, players take on the role of Ada Wong instead of the main game's protagonist, Leon S. Kennedy. Ada boasts some special abilities of her own - such as better agility, new attacks, and a hook shot tool for added mobility - which made the minigame a fan favorite.
With so much positive fan reception to the original Separate Ways DLC and with the release of the game's Mercenaries mode, many players have been wondering if Capcom plans on bringing Separate Ways to the Resident Evil 4 Remake. Here's everything you need to know about the Resident Evil 4 Remake DLC, Separate Ways, including its release date, included content, and more.

Resident Evil 4 Remake Separate Ways Release Date Speculation
Capcom has yet to announce an official release date for Separate Ways, nor have they even confirmed its existence despite fans' high hopes that it's on its way. However, known leaker Dusk Golem, known as AestheticGamer1 on Twitter, claims that the DLC will come, or at least be announced, before the end of 2023.
I said this both before RE:4 came out & a month or so ago, but I wouldn't expect to see RE9 this year, & be VERY surprised if it was revealed this year.

Separate Ways DLC for RE:4 I do expect to be revealed before the year is up though. It'll be pretty meaty for a DLC too. https://t.co/2xRNiWGPvW
Resident Evil 4 Remake Separate Ways DLC Content
They also mention that the content will be "pretty meaty for a DLC," suggesting that players might get even more content than they did in the original Separate Ways minigame.
After the release of Resident Evil 4's Separate Ways, it's possible that Capcom could have even more new games and additional content in store for fans of the survival horror series.
