I was gonna say I'd love to see a Resident Evil action game but then I remembered Onimusha exists 😅 And I suppose RE 4-6 to a lesser extent.
I feel like Signalis maybe half the way to a Resident Evil metroidvania? Like, if you bring the perspective down to 2D and tie all the areas together, you basically have an RE metroidvania.
What about abilities though? In Metroid, the suit gets the abilities, but no one in the RE cast has a suit or is magic, so I assume you unlock weapons instead?
Yeah, weapons. Take a look at shadow complex. It’s a great Metroidvania. You do unlock a power suit at one point, but other than that, you just upgrade your weapons.
