Choose a radio station by sound
Here are the six stations Rockstar has previewed so far. Pick a sound you like and give it a listen. [2]
| Station | Music | Announced hosts |
|---|---|---|
| Cocoteo FM | Modern Latin: bachata, merengue, dembow and reggaeton | El Martillo and La Gata |
| Back Country Radio | Country | MW and Delta Dawne |
| AfroBank FM | African classics, amapiano and 3-step | Burna and Palmsy |
| The Chamber 106.6 | Metal | DJ Kerry and DJ Tom |
| Flash FM | Pop | Robyn and Alex |
| Dirty South Classics | Southern rap and hip-hop | Trick and Trina |
Is Slayer’s “Raining Blood” returning from Vice City?
Yes. The official Chamber preview credits Slayer’s “Raining Blood” from 1:36. It was also on V-Rock in Vice City, as GameSpot’s 2002 soundtrack listing shows. If that riff takes you straight back to the old game, that is why. [1, 5]
| The connection | Earlier appearance | GTA VI evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Slayer — Raining Blood | Vice City’s V-Rock soundtrack listing, 2002 | The Chamber’s official station-preview chapter, 1:36. |
| The station context | V-Rock was the earlier station | The new preview uses The Chamber; a returning song does not mean the old station returns unchanged. |
It is a lovely bit of continuity if Vice City’s radio is burned into your memory. A familiar song, a new station and another excuse to miss your turn.
The same preview includes Black Sabbath’s “I” at 0:22 and Pantera’s “I’m Broken” at 1:02. Those times are for the preview, so you can skip straight to them. [1]
Not sure where to start listening?
Try a station you already like the sound of, then go for its opposite. Back Country followed by The Chamber should make the difference pretty clear.
- For a broad pop starting point, sample Flash FM; then try Cocoteo FM for the Latin selection.
- For dance-oriented exploration, start with AfroBank FM and compare its programming with the pop preview rather than assuming every electronic sound belongs to one station.
- For guitars, compare Back Country Radio and The Chamber 106.6. They give you two very different starting points.
- For regional rap and hip-hop, begin with Dirty South Classics.
Listen to the hosts and transitions too. A great GTA station has a personality between the songs—that is often the bit you end up quoting later.
Radio, The Album and the score: which one do you want?
| What you want | Where to start | What the listing means |
|---|---|---|
| A station with music and presenters | The Radio section of Rockstar’s music hub | Six preview stations; not a complete song-by-song radio catalogue. |
| The released soundtrack songs | Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album | 34 original tracks; announced for 19 November 2026. [4] |
| The music composed for the story | Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score by Justice | 30 tracks plus digital bonus material; announced for 11 December 2026. [3] |
Choose the station previews for the full radio flavour, an album single for a particular song, or the score for the composed music behind the story.
Soundtrack singles: a few places to begin
The Album’s opening releases include Yung Lean’s “That’s It” featuring Future and Metro Boomin, Travis Scott’s “RHYNO”, Morgan Wallen’s “Last Thing You Need”, Rauw Alejandro’s “Macacoa 2000” and Keith Richards’ “Bright Lights, Big City”. [4]
Who composed the score—and what does adaptive mean?
Justice, the duo of Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay, composed the original score. Rockstar describes it as responding dynamically to how players engage with Jason and Lucia’s world. The announcement names “Flower in a Hurricane” featuring Tame Impala, SZA and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, and “Pusher” featuring Gesaffelstein. [3]
Think music that changes with the action, rather than a playlist running in the background. The score album lets you listen to those compositions on their own.
Can you listen outside a vehicle?
Yes, according to Rockstar’s radio announcement: Jason and Lucia can listen to radio and on-demand podcasts in vehicles and on foot, using headphones or earbuds connected to their smartphones. [2]
