Not too long ago, some unseen footage from Resident Evil 4 was discovered and shared online. While its main purpose was to showcase Ashley’s arrival in the village, this entire prologue was ultimately cut from the final version of the game.
The missing section, titled “Chapter 0,” featured Ashley as the main character and focused on how she arrived and was eventually captured in the village, essentially providing more background about her story for fans.
There have been many speculations online about why the developers might have removed this chapter, but after conducting our own research, we explored several possible reasons why Capcom decided to exclude it.
Soon after the footage began circulating, we took the time to analyze it carefully and provide accurate information about what content was originally part of this missing chapter — and how it might have influenced the game’s final plot.
We have released a detailed video on our YouTube channel, where we explain what Ashley’s role would have been in that chapter and discuss the key reasons Capcom may have chosen to remove it.
If you’ve been curious about what was supposed to be included in this deleted segment — or why it was ultimately removed — our video will help you find all the answers you’re looking for.
