Ada Wong[a] is a character in Resident Evil (Biohazard in Japan), a survival horror video game series created by the Japanese company Capcom. She was introduced as a supporting character in Resident Evil 2 (1998) as a spy and mercenary who infiltrates the pharmaceutical company Umbrella Corporation to steal a biological weapon during a zombie outbreak in Raccoon City. Although Ada is often hired by antagonists, she has betrayed her employers for her own agendas and saved protagonist Leon S. Kennedy from dire situations.

Ada is featured in several Resident Evil games, novelizations, and films, and has also appeared in other game franchises such as Project X Zone, Teppen, and Dead by Daylight. Several actresses have portrayed the character, including Sally Cahill in her initial video game appearance, and Li Bingbing and Lily Gao in the live-action Resident Evil films.

Video game publications have described Ada as one of the best Asian female video game characters. She has received both praise and criticism with regard to gender representation in video games. Several publications commended her portrayal as a morally ambiguous femme fatale, but others argued that she was designed to appeal to the male gaze.
