Rockstar hasn’t revealed a single in-game radio station for GTA 6 yet. What we do have is 6 real-world songs confirmed by the two official trailers, and one legacy station name — V-Rock — teased in promo material.
Only officially confirmed music — full station list not yet revealedConfirmed trailer music
6Rockstar has not detailed how radio will work in Grand Theft Auto VI, but the two released trailers have already surfaced six real-world songs: a 1989 Tom Petty deep cut in the first trailer, and a five-song run in the second spanning 1970s-80s rock, Haitian kompa, and synth-pop. None of these have been officially confirmed as part of an in-game radio station lineup; they are simply the licensed tracks Rockstar chose for trailer soundtracking so far. Official screenshots also hint that music will matter more to the story this time, tying into the fictional Only Raw Records label and its Real Dimez artists, though whether that translates into a specific in-game radio format remains unconfirmed.

V-Rock
Referenced, not confirmed as playableV-Rock is the fictional heavy-metal radio station tied to Vice City's HD Universe continuity, first mentioned in Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City as the 1980s gig where DJ Lazlow Jones got his start, and later referenced through a purchasable satin jacket in Grand Theft Auto Online. Its clearest tie to Grand Theft Auto VI so far is a teaser clip on the game's promotional website, where Jason Duval wears a V-Rock T-shirt bearing an updated version of the station's Jimmy the Vulture mascot and logo, hinting the brand may resurface in some form. Rockstar has not confirmed V-Rock as a playable in-game station for GTA VI, only that it is referenced.

Six real-world songs have surfaced so far. Trailer 1 (December 2023) used Tom Petty’s "Love Is a Long Road" (1989). Trailer 2 (May 2025) ran five tracks: Jay Ferguson’s "Thunder Island" (1977), Zenglen’s "Child Support" (2004), Wang Chung’s "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" (1986), Tammy Wynette’s "Talkin’ to Myself Again" (1987), and The Pointer Sisters’ "Hot Together" (1986).
02 Is there a full GTA 6 radio station list yet?
No. Rockstar has not revealed any in-game radio stations or their playlists for GTA 6. The only music tied to the game so far is what has played over the two trailers — there is no confirmation any of it will appear on an in-game station.
03 Will V-Rock be a radio station in GTA 6?
Unconfirmed. V-Rock is an existing Vice City heavy-metal station from GTA lore, and Jason Duval wears a V-Rock T-shirt with an updated logo in GTA VI promo material — a strong nod, but Rockstar hasn’t confirmed it as a playable in-game station.
04 Does music matter to the GTA 6 story?
It looks that way. Official screenshots tie the fictional Only Raw Records label and its Real Dimez artists into the plot, and Lucia Caminos is shown wearing wireless earbuds — hints that music production plays a bigger role than in past GTA games, though the exact gameplay tie-in is unconfirmed.
