In Separate Ways, Ada Wong travels to a rural and lonely area of Europe to infiltrate a village controlled by the religious group known as Los Iluminados. On orders of Albert Wesker, Ada is tasked with obtaining the sect’s darkest secret: a mysterious material known as “Amber.” His operation intertwines with Leon S. Kennedy’s mission to find the president’s missing daughter, providing an alternative perspective to the main story and revealing the events taking place behind the scenes.
In addition to the acclaimed combat, gun and knife mechanics of Resident Evil 4, Separate Ways introduces an additional feature that takes the fast-paced action to new levels. For this exciting mission, Ada is armed with a Grappling Gun that can be used to swing across cliffs, make rapid ascents, and dive to the depths below. He can also wield the device in combat to engage enemies up close and engage in melee attacks from afar.
