solid side-campaign, fills out unresolved questions of the main story while featuring new areas and boss fights, like the base game the combat and pacing is utterly impecabble, Ada's grapple hook can be used to engage with enemies something that was not possible in the original version while also expanding the overall mobility, she really feels an different character to control than Leon unlike the original whereas the two characters are pretty much the same just changing the animations and skins, the two new weapons are fun and many of the setpieces that was removed in Leon's campaign are back with new twists which is by far RE4 Remake's greatest strength, it's willing to feature the same old areas but with new stuff to spice it up.

the storyline is about as good as the base campaign, Ada is an great character as usual and Luis/Wesker gets more screen time which is always an plus, it may feel a bit simplistic in some places especially compared to the original version's overall lore bits with Krauser, Wesker and The Organization but overall great, most of these lore aspects were quickly abandoned in the series after 4 anyways.

overall this is an fantastic expansion pack, it lasts enough time and you can come back to it very frequently thanks to the awesome replayability, there is weapons to upgrade and new unlockables for each playthrough, the price tag of 10 dollars is an steal considering the amount of stuff and quality that come with this, I would say that this is an must buy if you already own the base game and wants more of RE4 Remake's greatness, one of the best story DLCs ever made for sure and makes me miss how much prevelent these were before.
