Ending Explained

Post-Credits Scene

In the post-credits scene, in the helicopter, it is revealed that Ada Wong was hired by Albert Wesker, a recurring villain of the Resident Evil series, to steal the Amber. While he doesn't reveal his exact plans, he mentions that it involves the death of billions of people. With this information, Ada Wong decides against bringing the Amber to Wesker, holding the helicopter pilot hostage, and forcing him to change course.

Albert Wesker's Motivations

In Resident Evil 5 (2009), Wesker receives a sample of the Plaga from a different source and uses it to infect the residents of an African Village to puppeteer them. However, his plans never come to fruition as he is stopped by the game's protagonists.

Ada Wong's Motivations

In the original game, Ada works for a different organization and never planned to give Wesker the sample. Whether this changes or remains for the remake depends on whether we'll see a remake of Separate Ways. Separate Ways is a side campaign released for the original game that goes through the events of Resident Evil 4 from Ada Wong's perspective.
