GTA 6 Trailer Songs: Official Credits and Reported Tracks

What songs are in the GTA 6 trailers?Unconfirmed

Rockstar has released four main GTA VI videos. Three have a music credit from Rockstar; the Extended Look identifications below come from the press. Trailer 1 and Trailer 2 carry the song credit in the description of Rockstar's own YouTube upload. The Launch Trailer song was announced on the Rockstar Newswire. The Extended Look has no credit at all.

This page lists titles and artists only. We do not reproduce lyrics.

What is the song in GTA 6 Trailer 1?

Trailer 1 is set to "Love Is a Long Road" by Tom Petty. Rockstar's YouTube description credits the song to Petty and lists the writers as Thomas Earl Petty and Michael W. Campbell, with the recording courtesy of Universal Music Enterprises. It is the only song credited for the trailer.

The track comes from Full Moon Fever, Petty's 1989 solo album, and his official site marked the trailer with its own news post. Rockstar also hid a nod to him in the final scene: a Petty Forever sticker on the liquor store door. Some fans read the song choice as a joke about the long wait for the game, which we cover as a theory in why Rockstar may have picked Love Is a Long Road.

What is the song in GTA 6 Trailer 2?Unconfirmed

The main song in Trailer 2 is "Hot Together" by The Pointer Sisters. Rockstar's YouTube description credits it as written by Sharon Robinson, with the recording courtesy of RCA Records. NME notes that it was the title track of the group's 1986 album.

NME identified three brief car-radio snippets while Jason drives around Leonida collecting money:

These are identifications by the press. The snippets are short and Rockstar only credits "Hot Together".

What songs play in the GTA 6 Extended Look?Unconfirmed

Rockstar did not publish music credits for Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look. Its YouTube description, checked on October 20, 2026, says only that the video was captured from in-game footage on PlayStation 5. The list below therefore records press identifications by ear, not a verified complete soundtrack. Rolling Stone Canada says plainly that "no official soundtrack has been provided".

SVG and GamesRadar+ both place "Against All Odds" in the scene where Jason rides an elevator alone during the bodyguard job. Treat the last two rows with more caution than the rest: only one of the two main lists includes them.

What is the song in the GTA 6 Launch Trailer?

The Launch Trailer, released on October 15, 2026, uses "Flower in a Hurricane" by Justice featuring Tame Impala, SZA and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. Rockstar's Newswire post says the trailer features new music from Justice, the electronic duo who composed the original score for GTA VI.

Unlike the earlier trailer songs, this one was made for the game. It was released as a standalone single and is part of Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, the official soundtrack due on November 19, 2026. Rockstar has also said more is coming on the official score album, without giving a date.

Will the trailer songs be on the GTA 6 radio?Unconfirmed

Rockstar has not said. It has named six in-game radio stations and posted previews of them, but it has not published full track lists, so nobody can yet say which station, if any, plays "Love Is a Long Road" or "Hot Together". For the stations, their hosts and the songs heard in Rockstar's own station previews, see our GTA 6 radio stations guide.

Two points are clear from Rockstar's music page. Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album is described as 34 original tracks, so the older licensed songs from Trailers 1 and 2 are a separate matter from the album. Songs heard over Extended Look gameplay may be candidates for radio play, but that is our inference and Rockstar has not supplied a track list. The answer will come with the game on November 19.

How we checked this list

On October 20, 2026 we read the descriptions of all four videos on Rockstar's YouTube channel and the Newswire posts for the Extended Look and the Launch Trailer. Rows marked as press identifications come from the outlets named in the table. If Rockstar publishes credits for the Extended Look, we will replace those rows with the official list.
