Forty-two days before launch, Rockstar dropped more about GTA 6's music in one day than in two years of teasing. The page rockstargames.com/VI/music presents six radio stations, an original album and previews to play.
Flash FM is back from Vice City, hosted by Robyn and Alex, still on pop. Cocoteo plays modern Latin with El Martillo and La Gata. Back Country is renegade country from MW and Delta Dawne. Afro Bank FM blends amapiano and African classics with Burna and Palmsy. The Chamber brings metal to Leonida with DJ Kerry and DJ Tom. Dirty South Classics, with Trick and Trina, plays Southern regional rap. Rockstar calls it the biggest and widest-ranging selection of radio and podcasts in the series.
The original album ships on launch day, digital, vinyl and CD. Six singles are out now: That's It (Yung Lean with Future and Metro Boomin), RHYNO (Travis Scott), Sexy Magic (CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, PinkPantheress, Fred again.., Etienne de Crécy), Last Thing You Need (Morgan Wallen), Macacoa 2000 (Rauw Alejandro) and Bright Lights, Big City (Keith Richards). All of them play on our music page.
The Rockstar Store listed the GTA VI collection: tees and caps at €29.99, totes at €39.99, a Vice City Zippo at €39.99, a money clip, keychain, stickers, and the album on vinyl or CD. The Goodtime State collector's box stays at €399.99, no game included. The full list, prices refreshed every ten minutes, is on the merch page.
The soundtrack was the last big unknown of GTA 6. What is still missing: the exact unlock time and the install size. Rockstar said nothing more about those today.
