Dan Houser, Rockstar co-founder, said in a previous interview that the game may possibly go outside of the country with its future games. This made the fans go nuts, and speculated that the city of London will be next. However, vehicles in the game will be right-hand drive.

Trusted Review mentioned that there is also a possibility that "GTA 6" may arrive with not just a single city, but the whole United States. It will definitely take a while to recreate the whole country for the game, thus the reason why the game is speculated to arrive by 2020.
