Rockstar has revealed six radio stations for Grand Theft Auto VI and opened an online page where players can preview selections from Leonida's airwaves. Its October 8 announcement also confirms on-demand podcasts and says Jason and Lucia can listen to radio and podcasts in vehicles or on foot through headphones or earbuds connected to their smartphones. The game remains scheduled for November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Six stations, six corners of Leonida
Rockstar's music page names Flash FM, Dirty South Classics, Cocoteo, Back Country, Afro Bank FM and The Chamber. The mix jumps between pop, regional Southern rap, modern Latin music, outlaw country, amapiano and 1980s metal. Their names and short descriptions suggest different local audiences across the game's setting.
The page credits Robyn and Alex with Flash FM, Trick and Trina with Dirty South Classics, and El Martillo and La Gata with Cocoteo. Back Country is presented by MW and Delta Dawne, while Burna and Palmsy are attached to Afro Bank FM. DJ Kerry and DJ Tom front The Chamber. Rockstar adds local color to Back Country with a roving reporter, a swamp meteorologist and Mud Dog Mike, who checks in from an airboat. The short radio copy gives each station a sense of place without spelling out how often those characters appear in play.
The Music of Grand Theft Auto VIRockstar's station descriptions and playable previews.↗The previews are available before release
The station clips are playable on Rockstar's music page now, giving fans an early listen to the sounds attached to Leonida. They are selected previews, not full station playlists.
Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto VI page continues to list the November 19 console release. The music portal is the source for the station names and audio previews.
Rockstar describes the radio and podcasts as the series' widest-ranging selection yet, with formats spanning classic rock to talk radio. Six stations have individual previews on the music page, while the announcement also points to genres and formats beyond those six. That leaves room for more stations or programming, but Rockstar has not published the complete dial or a full track list.
The bigger change is that listening can continue after Jason or Lucia leaves a vehicle. Rockstar says both radio and on-demand podcasts will work on foot through headphones and earbuds linked to the characters' smartphones. The announcement does not describe sound mixing, spatial audio behavior or how the feature responds to nearby events, so those details remain unknown.
The album is a separate part of the music reveal
Rockstar also lists Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, a 34-track original release scheduled for November 19. Six singles are available from the page: “That’s It” by Yung Lean featuring Future and Metro Boomin’, “RHYNO” by Travis Scott, “Sexy Magic” credited to CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, PinkPantheress, 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 page links to presave the digital album and preorder vinyl or CD editions.
The music page presents both the album and the in-game stations, but it does not say that every album track will appear on a station. Nor does the page establish whether all songs will be playable in the same way in every region.
Flash FM is a familiar Vice City name, while the other stations give the wider state of Leonida its own radio identity. A discussion on r/GTA6 shows fans focusing on the metal station, the familiar Flash FM name and the newly confirmed on-foot listening. Those comments capture reactions in one thread, not a poll of the wider player base or a complete soundtrack list.
What the announcement does not settle
The official music page names six stations, gives short host credits, and offers preview audio. It does not provide the full station roster or playlist, and Rockstar has not described an on-foot headphone feature in this announcement.
The current game page lists November 19, 2026, and the two console families. No PC version is listed there. This music reveal does not change the date or add a platform. Players comparing the announcement with earlier release news can find the GTA 6 release date and edition details in our existing guide.
