Music has always been half the fun of a Grand Theft Auto game, and GTA 6 is going bigger than any entry before it. Rockstar calls the selection the biggest and widest-ranging in the series, and for the first time the radio can follow you out of the car, through headphones and portable devices inside the game. With launch day set for Thursday, November 19, here is every song confirmed so far.
Rockstar revealed the first six radio stations in October, each with a short preview mix crediting three songs, and the host chairs are stacked with stars. More stations are promised, and the full tracklists are still to come, but the previews alone run from Bad Bunny to Black Sabbath.

The radio is only part of it. Rockstar and Atlantic Records are releasing Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album alongside the game on November 19, with 34 original songs recorded for GTA 6 and physical CD and vinyl editions up for pre-order. Ten singles are out or announced so far:

Justice also composed the game’s original score. The score album arrives December 11 with 30 compositions running more than three hours, and two tracks have been shared so far: “Flower in a Hurricane” and “Pusher,” featuring Gesaffelstein.
Then there are the songs Rockstar has already put in front of players. Tom Petty’s “Love Is a Long Road” was the credited theme of the first trailer, and the Pointer Sisters’ “Hot Together” headlined Trailer 2. Across those trailers and August’s Extended Look gameplay video, listeners have picked out 18 more:

Add Justice’s score track “Pusher” and the confirmed count stands at 49 songs, before the full radio lineup is even announced, with Rockstar still holding back more stations and the complete tracklists. TDN will update this list as the rest is revealed. As TDN reported this week, pre-load for the game is live now ahead of Thursday’s launch.
