Today, Capcom's Resident Evil 4 Remake has officially launched on console and PC platforms, and the company has just announced that the game's free DLC "The Mercenaries" will be released on April 7, allowing players to continue their adventures shortly after completing the main game.

Resident Evil 4 Remake takes place six years after the events of Resident Evil 2, where the T-virus, a biological weapon developed by the Umbrella Corporation, caused a major biohazard. As a recognition to his abilities, survivor of the Raccoon City Destruction Incident Leon S. Kennedy was promoted to a federal agent under direct Presidential oversight. Sent on a mission to rescue Ashley Graham, daughter of the President of the United States, from a Spanish village dominated by a violent cult, he embarks on a perilous adventure filled with uncertainties.
