GTA VI launch trailer: what Rockstar announced
Rockstar Games released the Grand Theft Auto VI launch trailer on October 15, 2026, pairing its latest promotion for Jason and Lucia’s story with new music by Justice. The announcement reiterates a November 19 release for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. This report was published on October 24 after checking the official announcement.
The accompanying story summary follows Jason and Lucia after a robbery goes wrong and draws them into a criminal conspiracy across Leonida. Rockstar presents their dependence on each other as central to surviving it. The announcement introduces that premise without revealing a complete mission list or explaining the ending.
Justice and the GTA VI trailer music
Rockstar identifies electronic duo Justice as the composers of GTA VI’s original score. The announcement highlights “Flower in a Hurricane,” featuring Tame Impala, SZA, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. It also points listeners toward the official soundtrack album and says more information about the score album will follow.
Where to watch and what to look for
Use the official announcement linked below to watch the trailer alongside Rockstar’s release information. If you want to avoid story material before launch, skip the video and use the release and platform summary in our hub instead.
A promotional trailer can show how Rockstar presents the game, but it cannot substitute for a technical review. We have not played GTA VI for this report. We are not assigning frame-rate targets, judging loading times or treating every trailer sequence as evidence of directly controllable gameplay.
Where to find GTA VI release and edition details
Someone deciding which version to buy has a different question from someone looking for the trailer song. Our GTA VI hub separates release timing, supported platforms, editions, preorders and specifications, with links to their official sources. That lets readers check a purchase detail without treating an attractive trailer shot as a hardware specification.
For music coverage, keep the original score, soundtrack album and in-game radio stations separate. The appearance of a track in a trailer is not, on its own, confirmation that it plays on a particular radio station. Our companion radio report explains the listening features Rockstar has announced.

Confirmed information versus an unreleased code list
GTA VI’s official announcements establish its named protagonists, Leonida setting and announced console release plans. They do not supply a verified cheat-code catalogue. We therefore link a confirmation-status page instead of republishing GTA V phone numbers under a GTA VI heading. PC requirements, additional platforms and undocumented gameplay systems need separate official confirmation.

Score and soundtrack release information
The official music page distinguishes Justice’s original score from the separately promoted soundtrack album. Rockstar describes 34 original tracks for the soundtrack album and a November 19 release. Those album details are not a complete radio playlist or an independently measured runtime for the game’s score.
