Around 20 songs are officially confirmed for GTA 6, all revealed through Rockstar's own trailers and the Extended Look. A much longer list of songs has also surfaced through leaked gameplay clips and artist claims — reportedly over 30 tracks identified across footage that leaked in August 2026 alone. Those two lists aren't the same thing, and conflating them is the most common mistake in GTA 6 soundtrack coverage.
The confirmed list, and where it comes from
Every officially confirmed song has come from one of three places: the December 2023 debut trailer, the May 2025 second trailer, or the August 2026 Extended Look gameplay video. Tom Petty's "Love Is a Long Road" anchored the first trailer; The Pointer Sisters' "Hot Together" led the second. The Extended Look added roughly 14 more, bringing the running confirmed total to around 20. For the full rundown of what each trailer revealed, see the GTA 6 trailers explained guide.
If a song appeared in one of those three official releases, it's confirmed. Nothing else meets that bar, no matter how credible the source claiming otherwise.
The confirmation test
Ask: did this song play in an actual Rockstar-published trailer, the Extended Look, or a first-party Rockstar post? If yes, it's confirmed. If it only appears in a leaked clip, a dataminer's file list, or an artist's own social post, it's a leak or a claim — a different category, covered below.
Leaked gameplay footage
August 2026 saw a wave of leaked gameplay clips that reportedly showed roughly 30 songs playing across in-game radio stations, plus two more inside the in-game NINE1NINE club. This is the largest batch of unofficial song information to surface since the leaks that hit GTA 6 development in 2022. Artists named in connection with these clips include Tate McRae ("Sports Car"), The Weeknd ("Wanderlust"), and DJ Khaled ("Bills Paid"), among others circulating in leak compilations.
None of this is confirmed by Rockstar. Leaked footage has been broadly accurate about other GTA 6 details before — the map, character names, and some gameplay mechanics all leaked ahead of official confirmation during the 2022 breach — but accuracy on one category of leak doesn't guarantee accuracy on another. Treat leaked song lists as "likely, pending confirmation," not settled fact.
Artist claims
A separate, weaker category: artists publicly claiming their music is in GTA 6, without footage to back it up. Rapper Skrilla has said his song "Doot Doot (6 7)" is in the game. T-Pain has said Rockstar asked him to stop being active on a GTA 5 roleplay server, which fans have read as a signal of soundtrack involvement, though T-Pain hasn't confirmed that directly and Rockstar hasn't commented.
An artist's claim isn't a leak, and a leak isn't a confirmation
Three different confidence levels get flattened into "it's in GTA 6" way too often: Rockstar confirming a song, a song appearing in leaked gameplay footage, and an artist simply saying they're involved. Keep those separate. Only the first one means the song is actually locked in.
Why this happens every time
GTA games attract this pattern because the soundtrack is a genuine draw for a large chunk of the audience, and Rockstar reveals it slowly and deliberately, the same way it's handling the voice cast. That gap between fan interest and official information is exactly what leaked clips and unverified artist claims fill. It happened with GTA 5's soundtrack too — plenty of songs got attributed to that game ahead of release that never made the final cut, and some that did make it weren't predicted at all.
The safest approach if you're trying to build an accurate picture: start from the confirmed soundtrack list, treat leaked-clip songs as probable but unofficial, and treat artist claims without footage as the least reliable tier of the three.
Frequently asked questions
Leaked gameplay footage from August 2026 reportedly showed around 30 songs across in-game radio stations, plus two more inside a nightclub setting. None of these are officially confirmed by Rockstar.
Some past GTA 6 leaks, including map and character details, have proven accurate. That track record makes leaked song lists plausible, but not confirmed — Rockstar hasn't verified any leaked tracklist.
Less reliable than leaked footage. An artist saying their song is in the game, without footage or an official Rockstar confirmation, is a claim — not evidence the song made the final cut.
A confirmed song appeared in an official Rockstar trailer, the Extended Look, or a first-party post. A leaked song only appears in unofficial gameplay footage or claims that Rockstar hasn't acknowledged.
