Given the little information we have, I can’t really say whether something like this will happen, or if it’s even possible. This could also work with the various photo mode locations set around the world. Tired to drive on the open streets and want to clock in a few laps at Suzuka or Silverstone? Drive to the airport, select your destination, and you get transported with your car to your track of choice, offering something more similar to the classic Gran Turismo experience. Of course I really doubt that Polyphony Digital could give up completely on circuit racing, especially considering the enormous know-how and the amount of licenses accumulated in six mainline games of the series, which means that we could actually see a hybrid between open world and track-based racing. Considering Yamauchi-san’s dedication to realistic driving, we could even see a fully working traffic system with traffic lights and signs, rules to follow and similar caveats conducive to a better simulation of real world conditions. That’s pretty much the wet dream of a petrolhead like me. Sorry sony, Xbox has been beating you in the racing genre for quite a while now. I'll be buying forza horizon 5 to get my racing sim needs.

Tokyo features a delightful variety of roads, ranging from narrow alley-like streets to full fledged highways with the iconic and scenic Wangan, passing by broad four lane boulevards. The most likely setting for this kind of game would be a fictionalized version of Tokyo, which has been present in many chapters of the series with the iconic R246 track, and is said to have inspired almost all the “Special Stage Route” courses. Even within a single city you find an enormous range of different range of conditions, which become even wider as soon as you drive out in the countryside. This has great potential in an open world game, especially considering the large variety of road surfaces that can be found outside of a traditional track.
