GTA 6 Radio Stations and Songs: Every Track Confirmed in the Trailers

GTA 6 does not have an official soundtrack yet, but Rockstar has already let players hear it. Both trailers use real, licensed music playing over Jason and Lucia's world, and those snippets are the closest thing to a confirmed radio lineup we have. Here is every song that has actually aired in an official GTA 6 trailer, what it tells us about the in-game stations, and why "V-Rock" on Jason's t-shirt has fans convinced the classic Vice City station is coming back.

The essentials

• Six songs have been confirmed across the two official trailers so far: one in Trailer 1, five in Trailer 2.
• Tom Petty's "Love Is a Long Road" (1989) scores the entire first trailer.
• The Pointer Sisters' "Hot Together" (1986) is the anchor song of Trailer 2.
• No radio station names have been officially confirmed. The strongest hint is a V-Rock logo printed on Jason's t-shirt in Trailer 2.
• Everything below comes from the two official Rockstar trailers only - no leaks, no datamined files, no unverified rumors.

Every song confirmed so far

Song	Artist	Year	Trailer	Where it plays
Love Is a Long Road	Tom Petty	1989	Trailer 1	Full-length backing track
Thunder Island	Jay Ferguson	1978	Trailer 2	Early scene-setting shot
Child Support	Zenglen	-	Trailer 2	Jason's driving montage
Everybody Have Fun Tonight	Wang Chung	1986	Trailer 2	Jason's driving montage
Talkin' to Myself Again	Tammy Wynette	1987	Trailer 2	Closing radio snippet
Hot Together	The Pointer Sisters	1986	Trailer 2	Main trailer song

Two things stand out immediately. First, none of these are new commissions - they are all needle-drops from the late 1970s and 1980s, which lines up with GTA 6's confirmed dual timeline of a 2026 present built on top of a 1980s-flavored Vice City. Second, the genre spread is wide on purpose: heartland rock, New Wave synth-pop, classic country and Haitian kompa all show up within a single 90-second driving scene. That is Rockstar signaling the same thing it has signaled since GTA 5's radio playlist - the station lineup is going to reflect the real cultural mix of the setting, not just one genre per station.

Trailer 1: Tom Petty sets the tone

The first GTA 6 trailer leaned on a single track for its entire runtime: Tom Petty's "Love Is a Long Road," from his 1989 solo debut Full Moon Fever. It is a deliberate choice. The song is wistful and open-road in feel, and Rockstar used it to underline the trailer's framing of Jason and Lucia as two people running from their pasts toward an uncertain future in Leonida. Because the whole trailer plays over one song rather than cutting between radio snippets, it is not much use for guessing station formats - but it confirms Rockstar is willing to license major classic-rock catalog names for GTA 6, something past games have done heavily (Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and Guns N' Roses all featured in earlier GTA soundtracks).

Trailer 2: five songs, one wild montage

The second trailer is where the actual radio hints live. Rather than one continuous track, it cuts between multiple songs the way an in-game radio dial would, especially during Jason's driving montage through Vice City traffic. In order, the trailer plays:

1. "Thunder Island" by Jay Ferguson - a laid-back 1978 soft-rock cut that opens the trailer's tone before the action ramps up.
2. "Child Support" by Zenglen - a modern Haitian kompa track, and arguably the most telling pick on this list. Miami has one of the largest Haitian diaspora communities in the United States, and kompa on the radio dial is Rockstar directly reflecting South Florida's real demographics rather than just its neon aesthetic.
3. "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" by Wang Chung - the 1986 New Wave hit that plays during the same driving montage, reinforcing the 1980s throwback layer of Vice City's identity even in present-day scenes.
4. "Talkin' to Myself Again" by Tammy Wynette - a 1987 country ballad that closes out the radio snippets, suggesting a country or classic-hits station sits somewhere in the lineup, much like GTA 5's Rebel Radio.
5. "Hot Together" by The Pointer Sisters - the trailer's main song, an upbeat 1986 R&B/dance-pop track from the group's Hot Together album, used over the trailer's biggest character-reveal beats.

That is four different genres (soft rock, kompa, New Wave and country) plus the R&B anchor track, all sourced from a single 60-second stretch of footage. It is the clearest evidence yet that GTA 6's station roster will mirror what past games have done: a large, genre-diverse bank of stations rather than a handful of broad ones.

Is V-Rock making a comeback?

No station name has been confirmed by Rockstar, but Trailer 2 gave fans a real clue: Jason is shown wearing a t-shirt with a V-Rock logo on it, the same branding used by Vice City's rock station in GTA: Vice City and Vice City Stories. A t-shirt is not a confirmation the station is in the game, but Rockstar has a track record of hiding these kinds of nods on purpose - see the other throwbacks fans have spotted across both trailers. If V-Rock returns, it would fit the confirmed rock needle-drops (Tom Petty, Jay Ferguson) already heard in the trailers.

What the full lineup will probably look like

Rockstar has not announced a station list, and nothing here should be read as confirmed beyond the six songs above. But based on the trailers and the setting, a few things are reasonable to expect:

• A classic rock station, likely carrying the V-Rock branding, built around the Tom Petty and Jay Ferguson-style catalog already heard.
• A kompa or Caribbean/Latin station, or possibly more than one, given how deliberately Zenglen's track was chosen to represent Miami's Haitian community. GTA 6's setting has also been confirmed to stretch well beyond Vice City itself, across the other regions of Leonida, which could support multiple region-specific stations.
• A country or classic-hits station, echoing the Tammy Wynette closer, similar to GTA 5's Rebel Radio.
• A dance-pop or 80s hits station, carrying tracks like Wang Chung and The Pointer Sisters.

Every previous GTA has also shipped with talk radio and comedy stations layered on top of the music ones, and there is no reason to expect GTA 6 to drop that format. None of this is confirmed by Rockstar; it is a pattern read from six trailer songs plus twenty years of GTA radio design.

What we still do not know

Rockstar has released no official soundtrack list, no station names beyond the V-Rock hint, and no artist roster. Anything claiming to be a "leaked GTA 6 radio station list" circulating online is not sourced to Rockstar and should be treated as unverified rumor, not fact - 6cheats does not amplify datamined or leaked material as if it were confirmed. The only songs that count as confirmed are the six listed above, all pulled directly from the two official trailers.

For everything else confirmed about the game so far - including who Jason and Lucia actually are and what the third trailer is expected to reveal - the trailers remain the only source Rockstar has put its name on. Expect more radio and soundtrack details as GTA 6 approaches its November 19, 2026 release.
