Separate Ways is so good that it makes other Resident Evil games look worse by comparison. It’s hard to believe that this campaign was only $10 when Resident Evil 3 Remake, a game of similar length yet far less satisfying, was full price just three years ago. It’s even more surprising that just last year we were playing Shadows of Rose, a lightweight, uninspiring retread of Resident Evil Village that similarly tried to make old locales feel new again, but failed to match the quality of the base game. Separate Ways is more like a Resident Evil 2-style parallel campaign than a bonus DLC, and it’s been given the level of polish and care it deserves. Separate Ways has always been essential to the RE4 experience, but the remake elevates it to the quality of a standalone Resident Evil game. And at just $10, it might be the best value in gaming this year.
Capcom once again listening to fans, Separate Ways is a perfect accoutrement to the well-handled Resident Evil 4 remake. It’s linear, sure, but it hits all the right beats to make players want to go back to Leon’s presidential daughter rescue mission. Albeit from a higher perspective.

I gave it a 9 at first, but then I cant find a single flaw.
The only things I didnt like of R4make was cut content, virtually every single cut content made it into this DLC.
I finished it in 6 hours ( taking my time) now having done a few playthroughs on S+, NG+, like always lots of replayability.

Separate Ways is the DLC we didn’t know RE4 remake needed, and it’s up there with the best DLC content we’ve ever had for a Resident Evil game. It’s a bit of a shame that this side-story of the original game was carved out to be paid DLC, but when the package is this good, it’s hard to moan. If you enjoyed Resident Evil 4 remake, then Separate Ways is an absolute essential.
A very welcome slice of DLC that is just as enjoyable as the main game and helps flesh out a fan favourite character with their own unique abilities and agenda.
Resident Evil 4: Separate Ways is exactly what fans wanted from the Ada Wong-focused story. It improves on the original, giving more depth to the protagonist’s character and progressing her narrative. The acrobatics of the special agent opens up new gameplay options which allows the heroine to latch on to ledges and superkick enemies. While you don’t have complete freedom with the grapple gun and the runtime is short, there are no wasted moments which makes Separate Ways a joy from start to finish.
Separate Ways isn't just more Resident Evil 4. It's a meaningful expansion that delivers a new story through a distinct tone and with new mechanics. It is an essential extension of an already remarkable game. Although its nods to the past can feel a bit overt, it still packs a punch that'll have me playing it many times over again.
Resident Evil 4 Remake: Separate Ways is just as fun to play as Resident Evil 4 Remake was, although it's much shorter. There are some great set-pieces and moments of camp that you won't find in any other series, and it is nice that Capcom is at least giving Ada and Wesker to the base game's Mercenaries mode for free. But. This whole part of the game used to be free. This was an add-on, a bonus, something Capcom initially packaged in with Resident Evil 4 on the PlayStation 2. All you had to do was beat the game once - there was no extra money involved.
The separate ways dlc completes Léon's adventure wonderfully and I really had the feeling of playing a beautiful resident evil adventure, varied, long, intense and beautiful, separate ways and a great success, again Capcom your fans love it!

Great DLC, worths every penny. It seems to me a great complement of enough extension. It is all that we wanted, for us who whete expecting a bit more of RE4 remake.

Final Thoughts: Let's face the elephant in the room first off: Separate Ways does a much better job of allowing actress Lily Gao to showcase a more complex Ada Wong. The delivery doesn't always hit and I still think better direction was needed, but a serviceable performance in this expanded look at Ada's journey bolsters the character's conflicted adventure.
On the story side, it's action-horror meets goofy espionage. Wicked fun and full of fan service, Separate Ways smoothly takes what it cut from RE4: Remake and puts it to better use with the more apt Ada. As for the future, it's undoubtedly assured at this point that Code: Veronica or RE5 is next in line to be introduced to the absolutely gorgeous RE Engine.
Gameplay also features some nifty little additions, with the grapple hook melee and shield pull being fantastic mechanics that set Ada's campaign apart. What she lacks in brute strength she more than makes up with intelligence and acrobatics. All-in-all, Separate Ways is a decent DLC that tastefully expands on the core game's slickness and more than justifies the reasonable price of admission.
