GTA VI: The Album lands on 19 November with 34 tracks
Rockstar and Atlantic Records' soundtrack pairs Yung Lean, Travis Scott and Keith Richards across 34 tracks, with six singles out now.
Rockstar Games and Atlantic Records have announced Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, a 34-track official soundtrack that arrives on 19 November alongside the game — and six of its songs are already streaming.
What's actually going on
The album is a partnership between Rockstar and Atlantic Records, built from original tracks written for Vice City and Leonida rather than licensed music. Rockstar describes the roster as genre-defying, and the six debut singles bear that out.
The singles out now are "That's It" by Yung Lean featuring Future and Metro Boomin', "RHYNO" by Travis Scott, "Sexy Magic" by CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, Pink Pantheress, Fred again.. and Etienne de Crécy, "Last Thing You Need" by Morgan Wallen, "Macacoa 2000" by Rauw Alejandro and "Bright Lights, Big City" by Keith Richards.
The digital album can be pre-saved now, and a vinyl and CD release is available to pre-order, with limited-edition vinyl listed in Rockstar's store. Everything lands on 19 November, the same day as the game.
Why the roster is the story
A Grand Theft Auto soundtrack has traditionally meant licensed music curated across in-game radio stations. Thirty-four commissioned songs in partnership with a major label is a different kind of commitment, and the single picks read like a radio dial: Swedish rap, Houston hip-hop, country, an Argentine-Chilean pop duo backed by a British producer and a French electronic pioneer, Spanish-language reggaeton and a Rolling Stones guitarist.
That spread is the point. Vice City's identity has always been about flipping between stations, and the album is being positioned as the same experience in record form, with a physical release for listeners who want it on a shelf and not just in a stream.
Our opinion
Thirty-four songs is a bigger swing than a licensed radio slate, and giving the opener to Yung Lean with Future and Metro Boomin', then closing the singles run with Keith Richards, is curation you cannot buy off a shelf. The question is whether the songs hold up away from the game. The music of Los Santos worked because those tracks already had lives of their own before they became inseparable from their scenes, and a commissioned album has to earn that. If "RHYNO" is only ever the song from the trailer, this is an expensive extras disc. If it plays in a pair of headphones without a Vice City sunset in shot, Rockstar has done something no publisher has managed at this scale.
