The Simpsons: Hit & Run Sequel Blocked by Mysterious Decision

The lead designer of the 2003 game The Simpsons: Hit & Run, Joe McGinn, revealed that Radical Entertainment had the opportunity to create three sequels without additional licensing costs, but the publisher, Vivendi Games, inexplicably declined. Despite selling around 10 million units, a sequel never materialized, and the reasons remain unknown. With Radical and Vivendi now defunct, any potential remake would require a new developer and publisher. The game's enduring popularity, especially among speedrunners, keeps hope alive for a future revival.
