We won't have to wait long to find out how interactive this newly revamped laser corridor is though, as Separate Ways launches later this week on September 21, a lot sooner than most of us probably expected. On top of that, Resident Evil 4 Remakes' new Mercenaries Mode will be getting a free update at the same
