Resident Evil 4 DLC might be on its way sooner than we expected, as survival horror game developer Capcom implements some changes to RE4 on Steam, updating the shooter for some possible new material. Naturally, we’re expecting the Ada Wong-led campaign Separate Ways, which was not originally included as part of Resident Evil 4 Remake. But the Steam updates could also be connected to new material for the Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries minigame.
In the original, 2005 Resident Evil 4, Separate Ways was available after completing the main game, and allowed you to play as Ada Wong parallel to Leon Kennedy’s story. Though Ada naturally returns in the RE4 remake, Separate Ways – so far – does not. But that could be about to change, sooner rather than later.
Fresh activity in the Steam backend for Resident Evil 4 Remake suggests the possibility of a new update coming to the survival game. On Monday, August 7, several changes were made to Resident Evil 4’s Steam listing, not dissimilar to the additions and alterations made to CSGO ahead of the announcement and limited test for Counter-Strike 2. The changes include two main ‘depots’ within the Resident Evil 4 Steam listing: ‘re_mas_03’ and ‘qa_mas_03.’
If I had to speculate – and please, keep in mind this is pure conjecture – ‘re_mas_03’ represents ‘Resident Evil master,’ and thus connects to the game proper, while ‘qa_mas_03’ relates to ‘quality assurance,’ and might suggest a demo or test build for something arriving in the future.
Hopefully this signals the arrival of Separate Ways, to complete the full Resident Evil 4 Remake experience. Alternatively, Capcom may be adding more to the Mercenaries minigame which launched previously as a free DLC.

Resident Evil 4 Remake is a constant battle for survival, as wave after wave of the iconic Ganados swarm Leon Kennedy over 16 high-body-count chapters. But remember, this is still at heart a survival horror game. Like the original Resident Evil, and the other RE games before it, carefully managing and deploying your ammunition remains an essential mechanic. Now, one Resident Evil 4 Remake player takes this strategy to the next level, somehow finishing the entire game without landing a single shot on anyone.
Eduard Badaluta, the face model for Leon Kennedy in the Resident Evil 2 and 4 remakes, is calling on fan accounts to be deleted. In comments that have since been removed, Badaluta says these fans are running "piece of shit accounts", and says that he "doesn't need" fan accounts in the first place.
With Alan Wake 2, Remedy Entertainment is developing its first ever full-fledged survival horror game, and in an era where the genre and the studio both are flourishing perhaps more than they ever had, that’s an exciting prospect. Of course, given the massive critical and commercial success that the Resident Evil series has enjoyed, and how much Capcom’s franchise has been responsible for the genre’s revival, comparisons are inevitable for any new survival horror title- and that stands true for Alan Wake 2 as well.
and fans can save big on both franchises for a limited time. Various platforms are offering significant discounts on, with players also having the opportunity to support important charitable causes. Meanwhile, multiple .
Alan Wake 2's developers took inspiration from Capcom's Resident Evil series as it wanted players to feel "more vulnerable" while playing the sequel.
Resident Evil is the defining survival horror game series. From the original RE in 1996, through the reinvention of Resident Evil 4, the bold wackiness of Resident Evil Village, and the terrific Resident Evil remakes, the world of Chris Redfield, Leon Kennedy, Jill Valentine and co. has rarely hit a truly dud moment. There have been ups and downs, sure, but essentially, every Resident Evil game brings something unique. And now, with rumors swirling about a possible RE Code Veronica remake, you can get basically the entire Resident Evil series for $35. That’s $335 worth of games for less than the price of one.
Every mainline entry in the series as well as several other great spin-offs are included in the latest Humble Bundle.
There is no shortage of Resident Evil fans hungry for something new to enjoy. The video game franchise has thrived over the years and most recently found a new market with remakes. With the likes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 being hits for fans, it was only recently that fans could continue with this trend. Capcom released Resident Evil 4, the remake, in March of this year. Fans were able to enjoy the campaign following Leon through another thrilling fight against a bioterrorism organization. However, the game didn’t release entirely, as fans have been waiting on the secondary campaign to emerge.
Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 remake has sold more copies than any other title in the horror franchise’s 27-year history, after passing 12.6 million cumulative lifetime sales across console and PC.
Capcom has a few massive franchises that take the market by storm with every release. However, when it comes to their biggest-selling franchise, Resident Evil, it’s always interesting to see just what game comes out on top. Today, we’re finding out that the franchise is still thriving, and one of the previous most significant installments has officially been dethroned. It looks like Resident Evil 2, the 2019 remake, has officially taken the top spot in regards to units sold. How long will this title last before it becomes overtaken?
The Resident Evil franchise has exhibited incredibly long legs where its sales are concerned, and unsurprisingly, that continues to be the case. Capcom has updated its list of Platinum Titles, providing updated sales numbers for its Resident Evil games, and there have been some interesting developments.
