Listing 4+ because 3 is too few with so many meaningful titles.
Starsiege: Tribes / Tribes 2 - A true successor has yet to exist.
Final Fantasy XI - I miss the magic of Vana'diel.
Furi - Music, story, and gameplay are top notch.
Final Fantasy VII - The original was so much more than I expected.
There is Starseige: Deadzone right now, though not at all the same. It's a corridor extraction shooter, but has some of the same guns and stuff.
Starseige: Raiders is a thing that's happening too. It's an extraction shooter but outdoors with more Tribes style movement.
There's also apparently (which I didn't know this until just now) a new Starseige: Tribes slated for Q1 2024.

Thanks for sharing this, mildly surprised I hadn't heard of it! I'm glad that someone has picked up the Starsiege/Tribes intellectual property, whatever form it's taking.
There's Midair 2 Community Edition, or something like that, which you can find on Steam. Join their Discord channel and you can probably get a playtest key. It looks like it's just going to be little more than the LT mod with cosmetic micro transactions though, which are the opposite of anything I liked about Tribes... But jet packs and skiing are there, so I'll play it at least a little.
It's not really picked up by anyone new. It's the studio that one of the two Hi-Rez founders spun off. He brought a lot of the employees with him too even, though I'm not sure how many worked on Tribes. Probably very few.
