It's also possible for the development team itself to release its own code, which is what Frictional Games did for Amnesia last year.

At the start of this year, hackers stole the code for The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, with the intention of selling it on the dark web. Source code leaks are not that unusual in the gaming world. Just a few days ago, a modder managed to remaster Hit and Run in the Unreal Engine in just one week, so imagine what the community can do with access to the game's actual code. Something like this has already happened recently. With the source code now available for anyone to take and modify, this could lead to fans remastering the game, or just modding it to their heart's content.

It doesn't appear that this has been officially uploaded by the developer or publisher, but the information, along with a screenshot, suggests that a folder contains details about the game's development cycle, along with the source code. While there has been no word from official sources yet about whether a remaster, or even a full remake, will ever see the light of day, it's entirely possible for fans to have a go at it, as the game's source code has apparently been leaked online recently.Īccording to a report, the entire code for The Simpsons: Hit and Run has been made available to anyone.

In fact, Hit and Run is the game fans most want to see a remaster of. Released in 2003 for PC and consoles, The Simpsons: Hit and Run struck a chord with the gaming community at the time, which is still resonating to this day.
