AI Summary

At D23, Matt Groening hinted that a sequel or revival of the 2003 game *The Simpsons: Hit & Run* might be in the works, saying the original could “come back in some form.” Showrunner Matt Selman replied skeptically, suggesting it might not happen. The 2003 title launched on PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, and Windows, and while it can run on modern PCs, it is not available on current consoles or in the PlayStation Plus Classics or Xbox backward‑compatibility catalogs. A return could be a direct port or a full HD remaster, which would not require new voice work because the original cast’s performances were deemed sufficient.
