Resident Evil 4 VR Should Bring Ada's Missions Back With Mercenaries

Resident Evil 4's recent VR edition has a lot going for it, but there are several missing aspects from the original that players would love to see.

Capcom's recent remake and virtual reality port Resident Evil 4 VR has been met with praise from fans of the original 2005 game. While some questioned the relevance of remaking a game that's over 15 years old, other players and fans of Capcom's previous VR version of another game in the franchise, Resident Evil 7 , were keen to experience the survival horror shooter through the immediacy of a headset.

Resident Evil 4 VR is not just a straightforward remake. Capcom faced some criticism and controversy before the game's release when it was rumored that it would be cutting some content from one of its most popular Resident Evil games, in addition to making the shift from a 3rd person perspective. While some of the content cut had little to no impact on the larger game, the omission of other elements such as Mercenaries Mode, Separate Ways, and Assignment Ada at the time of the game's release was felt more keenly by fans.

Lost In Translation

While some fans were hoping for a ground-up remake similar to Capcom's treatment of Resident Evil 2 , they will have to be satisfied with a remaster and translation to VR for the time being. Although large amounts of the game remain the same, there were still some changes in the newest port from the original fourth installment in the popular franchise. Once the game was released in 2021, players were able to see that most of the changes were simply cuts of slightly sexist and outdated dialogue and actions, particularly with regards to the characters of Ingrid and Ashley .

The main change was a welcome one, with perspective shifting from 3rd person to 1st during gameplay (other than some key instances, like when Leon delivers a knockdown move to an enemy). Putting players directly in the action through a 1st person VR perspective is always a popular mechanic for horror games, even if this proves just a little too much for some gamers. The change that left a lot of fans of the franchise disappointed was the decision to not include Mercenaries Mode, Separate Ways, or Assignment Ada. That was until Oculus confirmed that Mercenaries Mode will be added to Resident Evil 4 VR in a free update coming in 2022 – welcome news to gamers that enjoyed the popular mode and its various characters that saw them mowing down as many enemies as they could within a time limit.

Ada Missions Still MIA

With the announcement that the previously cut Mercenaries Mode will be making a reappearance, it's possible that Ada Wong 's storyline Separate Ways and minigame Assignment Ada may also have a place in Resident Evil 4 VR . Separate Ways, a story expansion in the original game that was made available to players after they completed the campaign, followed the exploits of enigmatic spy Ada concurrent to the game's main narrative. Assignment Ada also follows Ada but is a non-canon extra mode that was a little lighter on plot. Players controlled Ada as she collected Plaga samples and reported back to Wesker, providing a fun and challenging quick extra along with the other content.

The addition of the Ada-centric add ons would certainly be a plus for the overall Resident Evil 4 VR experience. Enabling gamers to play through these levels in immersive and palpitation-inducing VR would be an improvement to the original versions, and would add more content to the game for players to enjoy. Providing an additional story mode like Separate Ways would flesh out the narrative for players that may only be experiencing Resident Evil 4 for the first time in its VR iteration, and would provide a nice counterbalance to the more Leon-focused main campaign.

Resident Evil 4 VR is out now, exclusively for Oculus Quest 2.

Resident Evil 4 VR Doesn't Have Separate Ways Or Mercenaries

You can play as Leon Kennedy but not Ada Wong in Resident Evil 4 VR.

Resident Evil 4 VR launches tomorrow , taking the classic, revolutionary 2000s shooter into uncharted territory . It's been ported a hefty amount of times now but never overhauled for a new medium entirely. However, in the transition, it has lost Mercenaries and Separate Ways , two of the unlockable extra modes.

Speaking to IGN, the spokesperson revealing the news didn't divulge why the modes were omitted, only that they won't be making an appearance. For context, The Mercenaries was unlocked by completing the Resident Evil 4 on any difficulty - the idea is that you kill as many baddies as possible in as quick a time as you can. Normal enemies award 300 points and bosses award several thousand - in essence, it's an arcade minigame.

Meanwhile, Separate Ways is a story expansion that's also unlocked by beating the main campaign. You play as Ada Wong during the events of the main story, following Albert Wesker's orders to ring the church bell. You then rescue Luis Sera, retrieve the plaga sample, and stop Leon's assassination. It's a side story that runs adjacent to Resident Evil 4, explaining what Ada was up to.

Another absent extra mode is Assignment: Ada, a non-canon minigame that is - you guessed it - unlocked by beating Resident Evil 4. The plot is simple: you, playing as Ada, collect various plaga samples, and report back to Wesker.

During this segment, you report that Krauser is dead despite the main story implying his survival. It's non-canon, though, so this can be hand-waved. However, it does vaguely tease Resident Evil 5 as Wesker talks about "significant changes in our world" that are on the horizon.

While Assignment: Ada remained alongside Separate Ways in future ports, it's clear that elements of A:A inspired the story-based expansion. Nonetheless, neither are available in the VR port. You're stuck with good ol' Leon Kennedy, the emo bad boy with a mean jacket and a decent combat roll technique. Unfortunately, his fringe won't obscure half your view - talk about immersion breaking.

Resident Evil 4 VR The Mercenaries free update out now on Quest 2

The wait is over for those who wanted to enjoy The Mercenaries mode in Resident Evil 4 VR. The latest update has brought the mode to Quest 2.

Resident Evil 4 VR just got an update that adds The Mercenaries mode for free. One of the biggest questions on the minds of folks since Resident Evil 4 VR launched on the Quest 2 was, “where are the extra modes?” While Resident Evil 4 VR has the entirety of the original game, it was missing the extra context such as Assignment: Ada, the Separate Ways extra campaign, and The Mercenaries mode. Fortunately, Armature and Meta have been working to bring The Mercenaries over to the game and now it’s here.

The free update that added The Mercenaries mode to Resident Evil 4 VR was revealed and released during the Meta Quest Gaming Showcase on April 20, 2022. Downloadable on the Meta Quest 2, the update allows owners of Resident Evil 4 VR to access The Mercenaries extra mode at no additional cost. The whole mode is intact, including being able to play as Leon Kennedy, Ada Wong, Krauser, HUNK, and Albert Wesker as you gun down Ganados and rack up points and try to survive against a ticking clock.

In addition to the core components of The Mercenaries mode remaining intact, this latest update to Resident Evil 4 VR also brings a new Challenges Mode, featuring 20 all-new ways to test yourself. Through it, players can unlock various bonuses that can used in both Mercenaries and the regular campaign, such as Big Head mode and golden weapon skins. These should provide some fun replayabillity and trials as players aim to complete each challenge and earn the rewards associated with them.

Even without The Mercenaries, Resident Evil 4 VR won our hearts back in 2021 with its faithful recreation of the original game in a VR setting, earning the Shacknews Award for Best VR Game of 2021 . With the promised Mercenaries mode finally having arrived, an already great thing is only getting better. If you have Resident Evil 4 VR on Quest 2, then you should be able to check out the free Mercenaries update as of today.

How Does Resident Evil 4 VR Differ From The Original?

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

Gamers have a new way to experience the classic Gamecube horror title "Resident Evil 4," which has been remastered to function as an Oculus Quest 2 VR experience. While a short  trailer for the adaptation showed some remarkably recognizable gameplay, early reviews have indicated that there will be some noticeable modifications to the game.

"Resident Evil 4" was first released in 2005 and saw players once again step into the boots of Leon Kennedy , an agent tasked with rescuing the president's daughter, Ashley Graham , who has been abducted by a sinister cult. Upon its release, the title was celebrated for its fresh approach to the survival horror genre and its innovative use of the third-person perspective. As Venture Beat observed, "Resident Evil 4" "reinvented the third-person shooter," and its over-the-shoulder viewpoint would soon be seen in some of the most important games of the 2000s, such as "Gears of War" and "Mass Effect."

Translating "Resident Evil 4" to a VR setting required moving the game into the first-person, which will be a significant shift for players to adjust to. However, the developers have made adjustments to other aspects of the game, ranging from visual improvements to modified dialogue. Here is how "Resident Evil 4 VR" is different from the original.

Resident Evil 4 includes modified controls to accommodate VR

While critics have generally reacted favorably to "Resident Evil 4 VR," it is worth noting that the new format has necessitated specific changes. The most obvious of these is the game's new first-person viewpoint, which alters the player's perspective for some key moments, but does allow for a new appreciation of Leon's signature fingerless gloves .

Upload VR documented some of these changes in their glowing review of the game and noted that "the content of the game might be the same, but actually playing it is a fundamentally different experience." For instance, managing the player's equipped items has been modified by making weapon changes movement-based instead of requiring navigation through the original game's sometimes clunky inventory screen.

However, perhaps more significantly, "Resident Evil 4 VR" has added functionality that was absent in the original, such as the ability to move in a sideways motion instead of only allowing Leon to move forward or backward depending on the current camera angle. Upload VR explained that many of these changes feel natural for the VR setting, but it does have the effect of making "Resident Evil 4" feel "fundamentally easier than it ever has."

While these changes may help the game adapt to a first-person virtual reality perspective, dedicated "Resident Evil 4" fans may find them off-putting. If that is the case, Upload VR noted that there is an option to disable them.

Popular Resident Evil 4 game modes have been removed from the VR edition

While some of the alterations to the control scheme of "Resident Evil 4 VR" can be seen as adding functionality, other changes have removed parts of the game that veteran players may have been expecting. IGN reported that the Oculus Quest 2 adaptation of "Resident Evil 4" arrives without some of the additional game modes included in the original.

These missing modes include Separate Ways, The Mercenaries, and Assignment: Ada. The Mercenaries , unlocked initially by completing the game's primary storyline, turned the deliberate survival horror title into a points-based shooter. In Assignment: Ada , which IGN notes is a non-canon part of the "Resident Evil" story , gamers had a chance to play as Ada Wong while collecting plaga samples for analysis.

Separate Ways was not a part of the original "Resident Evil 4" but was added to the game when it was first ported from the GameCube onto the PlayStation 2. This mode also focused on Ada Wong and allowed the player to navigate through the entire single-player campaign while controlling the enigmatic spy.

Resident Evil 4 VR alters some questionable dialogue and scenes

As reported by Bounding Into Comics , "Resident Evil 4 VR" has cut certain scenes that might be deemed offensive. These include lines of dialogue that reference parts of the character Ashley Graham's body, some interactions between Leon and his contact at F.O.S., Ingrid Hannigan , and some suggestive animations.

A statement provided to IGN by a Facebook spokesperson read that the changes to the dialogue and select animations were made to "update 'Resident Evil 4' for a modern audience." While some fans have found these changes to be upsetting, IGN saw them to be within the acceptable bounds of good taste, writing "Ogling Ashley isn't really a core part of the 'Resident Evil 4' experience so it's hard to say that this substantially changes the game."

The changes to the in-game dialogue between Leon and Ingrid are also subtle and likely only noticeable upon close comparison. In general, some of the more overt advances Leon makes are covered by static, and The Verge noted in their positive review of the game that "the developers have removed a few (honestly cringeworthy and missable) lines from the cutscenes."

Resident evil 4 vr modifies dialogue, animation, and cuts separate ways, assignment ada, and the mercenaries content.

Resident Evil fans may be disappointed to learn that there are changes in the newest version of Resident Evil 4 for the Oculus Quest 2, as Resident Evil 4 VR modifies dialogue, animation, and cuts the Separate Ways, Assignment Ada, and The Mercenaries content for the game, making it less of a complete experience compared to previous releases.

In a statement released by Capcom, the modified lines pertain to segments where there was some suggestive dialogue related to Ashley Graham and spoken by Luis Sera. These were changed and removed, as well as removing the animation that lets Leon look up through Ashley’s skirt and then she reacts by calling him a pervert.

“Oculus Studios, Armature, and Capcom partnered closely to remaster Resident Evil 4 from the ground up for VR. This includes immersive environments and high-resolution graphics. It also includes select changes to in-game dialogue and animations that we believe will update Resident Evil 4 for a modern audience.”

Additionally, the bonus modes and games such as Separate Ways, Assignment Ada, and The Mercenaries have been cut from this release of RE4. The first two modes allow players to play as Ada Wong, with Separate Wats serving as a supplement to the main story and sees what happens in Ada’s perspective. The Mercenaries is an arcade style mini-game that lets you choose between five characters and surviving different areas by racking up kills and points to get the highest score possible.

As we reported before, Resident Evil 4 VR is set to be released for the Oculus Quest 2 on October 21. Check out the announcement trailer here if you missed it.

Top Games and Upcoming Releases

Assignment: Ada

• Edit source
• View history

Assignment: Ada , also known as Ada the Spy in some regions, is a non-canon minigame featured in Resident Evil 4 unlocked after completing the game.

• 2.1 Loadout
• 2.2 Plaga Sample locations
• 3.1 Yellow Herbs

The minigame's plot involves Ada collecting a number of plaga samples as ordered by Albert Wesker (as opposed to collecting the single control plaga sample like in the main game). Ada does so and then reports back to Wesker that the mission was completed. She also states that Krauser was killed despite the implication that he had actually survived.

Although the plot is non-canon, it is interesting to note the ending scene has one of the biggest allusions to Resident Evil 5 in that Albert Wesker talks about "Significant changes in our world".

Gameplay [ ]

Ada wears a unique costume in the minigame which is a military-style uniform as opposed to her red dress as in the main game.

The game begins at the beginning of the island at Wharf A and ends at the Communications tower . The item layout on the map has been reworked for the minigame and pesetas and treasures are not found or used at all. The player must find the five samples of the Las Plagas parasite which are marked on the player's map. The only enemies featured are Ganado militia , Gatling Men , and Jack Krauser as the "boss" in the final area the player must defeat to get the last Plaga Sample.

The minigame is relatively short and is meant to be completed in one play-through as there are no save points during it. Ada starts the game with 6 & 2/4 Bars of health and has a slightly faster movement speed than Leon. The Plaga Samples Ada must collect take up space in the inventory instead of the Keys & Treasures menu.

Loadout [ ]

Ada begins the game with a set loadout with the default size case. In the GameCube, PlayStation 2, and the 2007 PC versions, she doesn't have a knife. In all other releases, she does. There are no other weapons to find besides Hand Grenades and ammo and the Merchant does not appear at all. Ada has the following items and firearms with the following stats;

• Handgun Ammo x30
• TMP Ammo x50
• Rifle Ammo x5
• Hand Grenade
• First Aid Spray
• Scope (semi-auto rifle)

Plaga Sample locations [ ]

Each Plaga Sample takes up 1x2 spaces of inventory. Due to them being mandatory in order to complete the scenario Plaga Samples are the only items in the game that cannot be discarded after putting them in the Attache Case.

Strategy [ ]

• In the GameCube and PlayStation2 versions, Ada has no knife, so try and conserve ammo and, to open multiple crates, line them up and shoot them in one bullet using the Punisher.
• Try to not get carried away with the Punisher's high rate of fire.
• Single-fire the TMP when possible to conserve ammo.
• Using The TMP full-auto is best saved to be used against shielded militia in close range, or multiple enemies, due to its high fire rate and high bullet consumption.
• Ada's melee attacks, Fan Kick and Back Kick, are particularly useful, due to your lack of a knife, and need to conserve ammo.
• Try to avoid Gatling Men whenever possible. They're relatively easy to flank in most presented situations, and not worth wasting ammo over, unless you are in dire need of a First Aid Spray or a Hand Grenade .
• Krauser is really easy to beat if you do this correctly. When he appears, dodge his attacks and run to the door you originally came from. Then equip your sniper rifle. Reenter the room where Krauser is. He will charge at you from the far end of the walkway, using his plaga arm as a shield. Try and snipe his knees before he reaches you. if you do, when he staggers, try and shoot either his head or upper chest. Repeat that until he reaches you. Just before he reaches you, re-enter that door again, reload and re-enter Krauser's room again. He spawns at the very end of the catwalk. Repeat what's above until he's dead. Grenades are more risky, due to their range, but also work well too if you can time it right. Sustained TMP fire at his knees is also effective. On the Wii, Xbox Live and PSN versions, do this same tactic, but try knifing him when he drops to his knee. This is very useful in speed running, as it only takes a few slashes to defeat him.
• Discard the Scope for the Semi-Auto Sniper since it is basically useless, this might help when collecting Plaga Samples since you need them in your Attache Case.
• After the fight with Krauser, no more enemies appear. Anything other than the first four Plaga samples may be discarded to make space in the inventory for the final sample.

Yellow Herbs [ ]

Due to Ada's low health, Yellow Herbs are vital in order to stay alive and take more hits. There are seven in the minigame. Collecting them all raises Ada's max health from 6 & 1/2Bars to 8 1/4 Bars.

Results [ ]

There is no formal results screen displayed at the end of Assignment: Ada . However, a unique credits sequence plays consisting of cutscenes from the main game but with Leon in his Special 1 costume and Ada in her costume from The Mercenaries minigame (The R.P.D uniform and Resident Evil 2 dress respectively).

In the Gamecube version, beating the minigame will unlock the Chicago Typewriter for the main game, in all subsequent releases, however, the weapon unlocks for use in Separate Ways instead.

Resident Evil 4 VR developer on expanding Mercenaries mode and those campaign cuts

"It's the year 2022 and some of this stuff doesn't age well."

Resident Evil 4's Mercenaries mode arrives today as part of the Meta Quest 2 version of Capcom's classic, via a free update with brand new content made specifically for this VR version. The announcement came via the just-finished Meta Gaming Showcase event - and you can play the mode for yourself now, or watch our Ian try it for himself just below.

Mercenaries, a wave-based PVE mode found in several Resident Evil titles, is a fan-favourite - and not least in Resident Evil 4, where you face hordes of ganados against the clock while attempting to land a high score. But this fresh version of Mercenaries for Meta Quest 2 includes an array of new options and unlockable extras - including online leaderboards and 20 Challenges which mix up Mercenaries' gameplay in new ways.

Challenges include options which restrict gameplay to just knives or rocket launchers, or shroud the map in fog. Complete these, and you'll gain access to other all-new additions such as a Big Head Mode, speedy Fast Forward mode, and a black-and-white Classic Horror Mode for the main Resi 4 campaign.

Ahead of today's announcement, I chatted with developer Armature - specifically, executive producer Tom Ivey - about the new additions, and how the studio handled the game's original VR release. In general, its release was highly-praised - including by Eurogamer's VR aficionado Ian, who dubbed it a "wonderful way to revisit a classic" - but there was surprise among some long-term fans when it was discovered the game had trimmed dialogue in some scenes, and seemingly removed another completely .

"It's the year 2022 and some of this stuff doesn't age well," Ivey told Eurogamer in a call last week, "and it doesn't fit with the Resident Evil franchise these days. So the idea was that we're keeping every aspect of the rooms and the creatures that you fight, and the story and how it progresses and the plot points of the story. But, you know, just kind of saying it's the year 2022 - does this fit with the way that Resident Evil should be presented in this day and age? That's the concept there.

"I definitely agree with the changes we made to the game so - we're definitely on board with that, we think it's the right thing."

For those who do want the original experience in Mercenaries, do not fear - the original version of the game has been preserved for those fans who only want to play that.

"All the gameplay from the original RE4, we've kind of cordoned off into one selection, which is called Classic mode," Ivey explained. "So you can play all the maps and characters, and the way that the timers work and the placement of the timers in the levels and all that is exactly the same.

"But there's also things that are fundamental changes to the rules of Mercenaries," Ivey continues. Here, instead of the usual two-minute starting clock, things get more frantic.

"There's a mode called Time Rush, which is you start with a very, very limited amount of time. And we place two timers in random locations around the map so you have to look around really quick... see that timer and think how am I going to get there while also killing guys while running to keep my combo going? And then I pick it up and I get maybe like 20 more seconds."

Kill Rush, another offering, has you start with limited time that you can gain more of by killing enemies - with more time granted for headshots. Deadshot, yet another new option, inflicts damage upon you if you miss any shots you take.

With Mercenaries added, fan requests will likely now focus on the addition of another popular Resi 4 mode - the Ada Wong-starring Separate Ways. But there's no hinting from Armature on this today - for now, Ivey said Armature was still focused on Mercenaries itself.

A veteran of Armature Studio, Ivey previously worked with Armature's founders at Metroid Prime developer Retro Studios. What's next for Armature after Resident Evil 4 VR? Ivey wouldn't say - but he still keeps an eye on what Retro is up to.

"I'm very excited to see what happens - I still have a ton of friends at Retro Studios working on the Metroid franchise - and also you know, at the other companies... like, Metroid Dread was a great addition to the genre and really did some interesting things and had some beautiful landscapes.

"But I don't want to forget Donkey Kong Country Returns. I hope someday there's a future where there's more of those games. I'm a big platformers guy, so I always look forward to that. And those were really good years for me and really fun years."

Resident Evil 4 VR Omits Add-On Content

by Andrew Smith October 20, 2021, 2:24 pm

The VR remake of  Resident Evil 4 releases this week. It’s a much-anticipated re-imagining of the survival horror classic, making Leon Kennedy’s European adventures even more engrossing. However, upon industry insiders trying out the game, it’s clear that several add-on missions are missing. Among those is the beloved Mercenaries mode, as well as story expansions like Assignment Ada and Separate Ways.

Mercenaries and More Missing in  Resident Evil 4 VR

Yes, if you’re buying  Resident Evil 4 VR in hopes of playing the endless horde mode Mercenaries, we have bad news. That extra content is missing from this re-release of the game, alongside several other extra modes.

In total, the game is missing three of its post-campaign modes: Mercenaries, Assignment Ada, and Separate Ways. Assignment Ada let you play as Ada Wong, as you rush to collect four plaga samples to give to Albert Wesker. Separate Ways was more expansive, retelling the game’s key events through Ada’s perspective, with a nifty grappling-hook to boot. On top of the endless horde modes provided by Mercenaries, that’s at least three hours worth of  Resident Evil 4 missing.

Even more confusing is a lack of clarification from Capcom, who own  Resident Evil , and Facebook, who produce the Oculus Quest 2. In a statement given to IGN , Facebook confirmed that these modes wouldn’t appear, but failed to give a reason why. As such, it’s difficult to speculate the reason why. However, the additional remastering work may have been too much for developers. Alternatively, the constant action of Mercenaries mode may not have been compatible with the precise VR design. That’s speculation though — and it seems like we may never know the real reason why they’re gone.

It’s certainly a disappointment for  Resident Evil fans looking to experience these modes in VR. Mercenaries in particular is a staple of  Resident Evil games, even making an appearance in this year’s  Village . While many are excited to see the beloved  Resident Evil 4  hit VR, these omissions are a big shame.
