Meet the new game, same name as the old game
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. A list of games (and their namesakes) that said screw it to discoverability and were named identically to the original title in the series and released 5+ years later.
Title has to be an exact match to the original, remakes and remasters not included.

Hitman technically gets away with it thanks to the subtitles the first two games gad (Codename 47, Silent Assassin)
