Interesting Facts about Ada Wong

(Source: Deen of Geek)

For those of you who want to know Ada Wong more deeply, you can check out the interesting facts below!

Not Real Name

As we know, the name Ada Wong is already well known to players, but the real fact is that her name is not her real name, you know! Very surprised, right?

Well, Ada herself is a spy who was assigned to investigate the Umbrella Corporation. Because he worked as a Spy, the step he took was that he did not use his real name.

It should be noted that, like his 'mysterious' nature, his real name is not yet known for certain by the public and perhaps he does not want to introduce his real name in Resident Evil.

She cannot use her real name as Spy, because by using the name Ada she will definitely have lots of enemies everywhere.

In the Resident Evil 3 Epilogue, she said that she was no longer Ada Wong so she gave up the name.

Until now, many people have speculated about his private life or other pseudonyms. However, in other cases, he has used other names besides Ada Wong.

However, until now it is not known for certain why he always changes his name in every case and never uses his real name so his identity is still mysterious to this day.

A Researcher Named Linda

In fact, in pre-production for Resident Evil 2, Ada Wong will play the role of a researcher at the Umbrella Corporation named Linda.

As a character who is quite accomplished and active in Resident Evil, at first he will still be considered a passive researcher at the Umbrella Corporation.

Linda once met Leon S. Kennedy when he was looking for a vaccine to restore one of his friends, Marvin Branagh.

Many speculate that the visual faces of Linda and Ada Wong are quite different, only that Linda is an espionage agent.

However, Linda slowly began to disappear and be replaced. Ada Wong is the one who is currently more popular and is the main character.

Relationship Ada Wong and Leon S. Kennedy

In fact, Ada Wong's relationship with Leon S. Kennedy is quite complicated. Initially, it was just a feeling of respect that spilled over into a level of friendship. However, their relationship continued to become love.

Many thought that Leon had feelings for Ada, but this was denied and was just respect between colleagues.

Ada once saved Leon in a quite critical situation. He tried to risk his life for Leon to survive.

In other cases, other players also thought that saving Leon was one of his bad plans in completing his mission for Leon.

Apart from that, it is also the opposite that Leon also saved Ada. Well, this is not a feeling of liking, but Ada has a debt of gratitude to Leon for saving her too.

Works for Umbrella Corporation

In fact, Ada did work at the Umbrella Corporation, but this didn't last long because there she only stole secrets from the Umbrella Corporation.

Working for a Secret Organization

Not many people know where Ada Wong works, players have speculated that she often changes companies or jobs, for example, she might be a freelancer.

However, there are also those who say that he did work for the Umbrella Corporation and had worked for a secret organization that had become a secret mission or operation.

So if you look at his job as a Spy, this can enable him to infiltrate other organizations and steal secrets from those organizations.

This is also difficult for players to believe, because it is impossible for Ada Wong to be a bad person and collaborate with Connection from Resident Evil 7.

Working Nomadically

It was mentioned that Ada Wong is a freelancer, where she has never worked for a long period of time for an organization.

This is either due to personal reasons or indeed job demands that cannot be tied to the organization, so this also affects his income from being hired long term because of his highly paid job as a spy.

Has a grudge against the Umbrella Corporation

Even though she works at the Umbrella Corporation, many people say that Ada Wong really hates the Umbrella Corporation, but this has not been officially confirmed.

Every employee, mission and even betrayal planned by him will always cause losses for the Umbrella Corporation.

However, if you look at all of his activities which always cause quite a big loss for the Umbrella Corporation, this is certainly true whether it is revenge from him or not.

But also, it could be said that this has something to do with his parents and his past so that he takes out his revenge on all his actions.

Her crush is Derek Simmons

If you look at Ada Wong's visuals, it can make anyone fall in love, especially men.

Well, this happened to Derek Simmons, who is the head of The Family organization from the rival Umbrella Corporation.

Initially, Derek Simmons was Ada's renter to spy on, but it turns out he fell in love with Ada Wong because she was able to complete all her tasks quickly.

So Derek Simmons became crazy about Ada Wong and when Ada left The Family, Derek created someone who was exactly like Ada Wong.

Carla Radames Becomes Ada Wong

Who is Carla Radames? It turns out that she is someone who was created and designed to look very much like Ada Wong by Derek Simmons.

Derek Simmons was able to change a woman named Carla Radames to replace Ada Wong in The Family.

At first, Derek Simmons wanted to work with Carla Radames to develop the virus, but instead he fell in love with Carla Redemes.

However, Carla Radames turned out to be Ada Wong's antagonistic doppelgänger, she completely lost consciousness and control when carrying out Derek Simmons' program. 

Had a fight with Leon S. Kennedy

So, at the end of Resident Evil 2, rumors circulated that Ada Wong had died. However, this shocked Leon S. Kennedy because Ada Wong appeared again in Resident Evil 4.

And the scariest thing is that Ada Wong was ordered to kill Leon by her own superior, Wesker.

But in fact, Ada couldn't do this because instead she helped Leon escape and get the dominant Plaga parasite, this is where Ada had to separate from Leon again.

Inspired by the film 'La Femme Nikita'

Long-time director and producer Shinji Mikami has found inspiration from the film 'La Femme Nikita', he saw the main role there, namely Nikita, which he felt was very suitable for Ada Wong.

Where Ada Wong, who returns to Resident Evil 4, can adapt as a Spy in this series by using the Nikita concept.

Important Hookshots in His Life

The Resident Evil story never knows when a character will die, this also applies to Resident Evil2 where Ada Wong falls into a hole. Is he alive or dead? Nobody knows until now.

However, he has returned again in Resident Evil 4 so this is a question for players, how did he survive the hole?

Some even say that he used his hookshot to save himself when he was on the verge of death.

Responsible for the Death of President Svetlana Belikova

In the film Resident Evil: Damnation, he becomes a fugitive and disguises himself as an agent of the Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance while heading to the East Slavic Republic.

This led to conflict with the President, namely Svetlana Belikova, until she died.

Using 'Romance' for Profit

It wouldn't be Ada Wong if she wasn't smart and cunning, she is able to manipulate romance to her advantage in any situation.

He was able to tempt John Clemens as Chief Researcher at the Umbrella Corporation into trusting him with company secrets.

Well, he also approached Derek Simmons to get secret information regarding the destruction of Raccoon City.
