When it comes to Grand Theft Auto, the music is almost as iconic as the gameplay itself. From cruising through Vice City while blasting 80s hits to modern sounds, Rockstar Games really knows how to craft the perfect audio backdrop for their criminal playground. With GTA 6 now coming on May 26th, 2026, fans are eager to know what songs will accompany their next adventure in Vice City. Here’s everything we know so far about the GTA 6 soundtrack, including all confirmed songs and radio station rumor.
All Confirmed Songs from the GTA 6 Soundtrack
Rockstar has released two trailers for GTA 6, and both feature songs that give a hint of the game’s style. Both trailers caused a big jump in music streams for the songs they used. According to IGN, after the first trailer came out, Tom Petty’s “Love Is a Long Road” got a huge 37,000% jump in Spotify streams.
Now, here are all the confirmed songs from the trailers:
First Trailer (December 2023) | • Love Is a Long Road by Tom Petty |
Second Trailer (May 2025) | • Hot Together by The Pointer Sisters (main trailer song)• Thunder Island by Jay Ferguson• Child Support by Zenglen & 5 Etwal• Everybody Have Fun Tonight by Wang Chung• Talkin’ to Myself Again by Tammy Wynette |
During the second trailer, we get a glimpse of Jason driving around collecting money while three different songs play briefly through the car radio, giving us a taste of the in-game radio experience.

Fans have also spotted what appears to be “I Love Rock N Roll” in the second trailer. However, there’s debate about which version is being used, as it doesn’t sound exactly like the Joan Jett and the Blackhearts recording that most people know.
The second trailer also reveals that music will be deeply integrated into GTA 6’s narrative. The NINE1NINE nightclub appears to be an important location, and two characters with ties to the music scene have been introduced, Boobie Ike and Dre’quan Priest. This might show that missions may revolve around the music industry, nightclub business, or entertainment scene in Vice City.
Rumored Radio Stations and DJs
If we see the pattern from GTA 5, then GTA 6 will likely have a huge soundtrack. GTA 5 and GTA Online had over 750 songs across many radio stations, including special ones like Frank Ocean’s “Blonded Radio.” For GTA 6, some interesting rumors are going around about possible radio hosts:
- DJ Khaled’s Station – Leaks suggest that DJ Khaled might get his own radio station in GTA 6. It would likely play his songs and hip-hop tracks.
- Joe Rogan Experience Parody – There’s talk that Joe Rogan might have a station or podcast in the game. Most fans think it will be a funny copy, not the real thing. Rockstar is known for making fun of real-world media, so a Rogan-like character talking about wild topics like conspiracy theories and workout tips would match the game’s style.
The Impact of GTA Soundtracks
GTA soundtracks don’t just complement the gameplay. They often bring old songs back into the spotlight and help players discover new types of music. The big jump in Tom Petty streams after the first trailer shows how powerful these music choices can be. For artists featured in the game, the exposure can be massive. Since GTA 6 is expected to be one of the biggest releases ever, having a song in the game could help artists reach millions of new listeners.
So that is all the confirmed songs in the GTA 6 soundtrack. Stay tuned for more updates as additional songs and radio stations are revealed in the lead-up to the release. So, are you going to create a GTA 6 soundtrack playlist on your Spotify to accompany your driving?
