Matt Groening lets slip that Simpsons: Hit & Run might be making a comeback
During a D23 event, Matt Groening hinted that the cult classic video game 'The Simpsons: Hit & Run' might be returning in some capacity. While showrunner Matt Selman remained non-committal, the comments have sparked speculation about a potential port or HD remaster.
Why it matters
The potential revival of a beloved 2003 title taps into strong gaming nostalgia and the industry trend of remastering classic intellectual property.
At D23, when asked about the potential for a sequel to the cult classic The Simpsons: Hit & Run game, Matt Groening replied, “I think the original game is coming back in some form,” before current showrunner Matt Selman added, “or not.” The tone in both of their voices and the body language suggests that Groening may have just revealed something he wasn’t supposed to.
