Resident Evil 4
"Resident Evil 4" was ported to the PlayStation 2 after Capcom stated that it did not fall under the exclusivity deal with Nintendo. It was released in North America on October 25, 2005. The largest addition is "Separate Ways", a new scenario for Ada written by Haruo Murata. According to producer Masachika Kawata, the Separate Ways campaign was something thought up by the PS2 porting team and was added after getting approval from Shinji Mikami. The port was later included with "" and "Resident Evil Outbreak" as part of the compilation "Resident Evil: The Essentials". The PlayStation 2 version featured two standard and collector's bundles from pre-orders. The standard package included the game and a T-shirt, while the collector's bundle also included a figurine of Leon, and the soundtrack "Biohazard Sound Chronicle Best Track Box". This quickly sold out, and a second pressing was released that included an Ada figurine. Another, called the "Resident Evil 4: Premium Edition", was packaged in a SteelBook media case, along with the art book, a documentary DVD, and a cel art of Ada.
