As in, you can restart the game at any time, going back to the start of the story but keeping your character's level/upgrades/etc. The idea being that the game is deliberately very difficult to finish first time round, but subsequent 'loops' let you breeze through the early stuff, conserving resources/time that you were previously short of.

The ones that I'm thinking of are Dead Rising and Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter, but I'm wondering if there are many (any?) others.

Recettear came to mind first. Shop upgrades roll over if you fail to pay off your debts in time.

Isn't Hades like that? Anyway I believe the genre is called Roguelite

It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

Roguelites with permanent upgrades. Many don't really give upgrades.

Returnal is the first game I thought of

First thought was Dead Rising. You can do it in Killer7 too.

Chrono Trigger almost does this. Pretty much does on second loops but even the first can be done real early.

The Akiba's Trip games allow you to leave Akiba and end the game early at any time to return back to the start of the game with all upgrades and items intact.

Disgaea games usually have a couple of early endings that fit the bill, I think.
