## Key points

- Rockstar says an overseas GTA is possible, but not a priority.
- The series has mainly featured American settings for 25 years.
- GTA 6 returns to Vice City on 19 November.

## Summary

Rockstar has not ruled out setting a future Grand Theft Auto game outside the United States, but co-studio head Rob Nelson said there is still much to explore in America. The comments suggest the series is likely to remain focused on American settings for now.

For 25 years, GTA has mainly returned to fictional versions of New York, Miami and California, with a brief opening in the snowy state of North Yankton. Rockstar previously considered a Japan-set game, while earlier titles included a London expansion and reportedly scrapped Paris content; former creative director Dan Houser has said the series’ themes are closely tied to America. GTA 6 is due to return to Vice City on 19 November and is reported to require 210 GB of storage.
