Resident Evil 4 remake datamine suggests Separate Ways DLC is coming

The fan-favorite scenario might be coming to the remake eventually.

The Resident Evil 4 remake might be getting Separate Ways as DLC, according to one dataminer.

For those unfamiliar: Separate Ways is an unlockable campaign scenario within the original Resident Evil 4 that follows Ada Wong’s path through the story. It’s a fan favorite, and some are none too pleased that the Resident Evil 4 remake didn’t release with Separate Ways – fortunately, it’s likely only a matter of time.

Well-known Resident Evil dataminer Gosetsu has found evidence of something called “The Another Order” within the Resident Evil 4 remake game files on PC (thanks, Eurogamer). It’s likely an adaptation of Separate Ways, as “The Another Order” was the mode’s name in Japan when the original Resident Evil 4 came out in 2005.

Resident Evil Central shared the finding on Twitter, which you can check out below.

Thanks to Gosetsu from the RE Wiki Discord, they managed to datamine Resident Evil 4 Remake and find evidence that "The Another Order", otherwise known as "Separate Ways" exists in the files.

Slight spoiler warning – there are also a couple of nods to Separate Ways in the Resident Evil 4 remake already. So it’s likely inevitable that the mode will arrive eventually, though Capcom hasn’t announced anything about it yet.

Thus far, the only confirmed bit of DLC is The Mercenaries – a battle mode that comes out on April 7, 2023. It’s also a free add-on, as long as you already own the Resident Evil 4 remake.
