What Makes A Great Metroidvania?

Games like Hollow Knight, Super Metroid, and Ori are nestled deep into my memory as some of the best games that I have ever played. For a genre that has been evolving since the 80’s, a revolutionary experience only comes along once in a blue moon. That’s because there is a blueprint of what makes a good, modern Metroidvania and key elements or pillars that need to be present in order to rise above the competition. This isn’t a list about what defines a Metroidvania, which are things like ability gating and interconnected areas but instead here are the six crucial elements that take an average experience, turn it into something great and truly define what makes a great Metroidvania.
