Technically, Metal Gear counts as alive since Metal Gear Survive was just this year. If we can't count franchises as dead because of gacha mobile games, then Survive definitely keeps that "alive"
Sadly I can't pick Valkyrie Profile either since that has a JP-only mobile game recently.
I'd easily be okay with Ubisoft killing one of their franchises to bring back Prince of Persia, maybe one of the handful Tom Clancy franchises.
I'd also say Burnout, but Criterion is practically dead now, reduced to a dozen people and just supporting Battlefield projects these days.
Parasite Eve and Chrono, i'd kill SaGa and..something else by Square for that. Heck, I'd burn their Tokyo RPG Factory for it.
(just counting IPs with multiple entries here, since I can't really consider things like Legend of Dragoon a franchise when they only have one entry)




But I would be willing to kill any other Konami series to revive Suikoden if they weren't already dead anyway. Yes, that means Metal Gear and Castlevania.
