Rockstar Games Unveils GTA 6 Radio Station Preview With Full Tracklists

Rockstar Games has launched an interactive preview of six in-game radio stations from Grand Theft Auto VI, offering players their first official listen to the soundtrack ahead of the game’s November 19 launch. The preview webpage showcases the diversity of musical genres that will accompany players through the streets of Leonida, spanning Latin music, southern hip hop, country, metal, AfroBeats, and pop.

Game Informer documented the songs featured across all six stations using audio identification technology, providing the gaming community with the first comprehensive look at what music will be playing through car radios and throughout the open world environment.

The Six Featured Radio Stations

The preview highlights the global musical palette Rockstar has assembled for the game’s fictional radio landscape. Each station appears designed to reflect different cultural influences and musical traditions that would naturally exist in a Florida-inspired setting.

Cocotea FM

This station focuses on Latin music, featuring tracks from prominent artists in reggaeton and bachata. The identified songs include Bad Bunny’s “EoO,” “Si Es Trucho Es Trucho (Remix)” by Axel Rulay featuring Farruko and El Afla, and “Canalla” by Romeo Santos and El Chaval de la Bachata. The station’s programming reflects the strong Latin cultural presence expected in the game’s Vice City-adjacent setting.

Back Country Radio

Representing country and outlaw country traditions, this station includes classic tracks from David Allan Coe’s “Need a Little Time Off for Bad Behavior,” Loretta Lynn’s “Don’t Come Home a Drinkin’,” and a collaboration between Hank Williams Jr. and Waylon Jennings titled “The Conversation.” The inclusion of these artists suggests Rockstar is highlighting the southern rural influences present in Florida’s musical heritage.

AfroBank FM

This station showcases AfroBeats and African music with tracks including “Joha” by Asake, “Gye Wani” by Pat Thomas featuring Ebo Taylor, and “Shay’sana” by DJ Lag and Robot Boii featuring Kamo Mphela. The station represents a notable expansion of musical diversity in the GTA radio lineup.

The Chamber 106.6

Metal and heavy rock dominate this station with legendary tracks from Black Sabbath’s “I,” Pantera’s “I’m Broken,” and Slayer’s “Raining Blood.” These selections indicate that Rockstar continues to include harder rock genres that have been staples of previous GTA soundtracks.

Flash FM

The pop-focused station features contemporary artists including Charli XCX with “Good Ones,” MGMT’s “Electric Feel,” and “Midnight Sun (Girls Trip)” by Zara Larsson and PinkPantheress. The mix of established and modern pop acts suggests a station that blends different eras of popular music.

Dirty South Classics

Southern hip hop gets dedicated airtime with tracks identified as “Like a Pimp Mix” by JefeEdai, “Who Dat” by JT Money, and a track described as “Born N Rai” with an incomplete artist attribution in the source material. This station appears focused on the regional hip hop sounds that emerged from the American South.

Rockstar’s Approach to Music Licensing

The preview represents a strategic move by Rockstar Games to showcase one of the franchise’s signature features before launch. Radio stations have been integral to the GTA experience since GTA III, providing both atmospheric immersion and cultural commentary. The decision to create an interactive preview webpage allows potential players to experience this aspect of the game directly.

The musical selection suggests Rockstar has invested significantly in licensing across multiple genres and eras. The inclusion of both classic tracks from artists like Black Sabbath and Loretta Lynn alongside contemporary performers like Bad Bunny and Charli XCX indicates an effort to appeal to diverse player demographics and create an authentic representation of a modern American radio landscape.

What This Means for Players

For players, this preview offers insight into how the game’s audio environment will shape the experience of exploring the open world. Radio stations in previous GTA titles have served not just as background music but as world-building tools that reinforce the game’s setting and time period.

The six stations previewed likely represent only a portion of the full radio lineup that will be available in the complete game. Previous entries in the series have featured upwards of a dozen stations spanning numerous genres, along with talk radio programming that provides satirical commentary on the game’s fictional world.

Players can access the preview through Rockstar’s dedicated webpage, allowing them to sample the stations before deciding which will become their go-to choice while driving through the game’s recreation of a Florida-inspired landscape. The variety suggests that regardless of musical preference, most players will find at least one station that matches their taste.

As the November 19 release date approaches, this radio preview serves as another piece of the larger picture Rockstar is gradually revealing about Grand Theft Auto VI’s scope and attention to cultural detail.
