Rockstar Games has revealed the full lineup of GTA VI radio stations, confirming on October 8, 2026 that the upcoming game's six in-game channels will be hosted by a blockbuster cast of real-world musicians and celebrities. Bad Bunny headlines a Latin music station, Lana Del Rey fronts a renegade country channel, and the rest of the dial spans pop, regional rap, African music, and metal — all set in the game's Florida-inspired state of Leonida. With the game due on November 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, fans can already preview every station on Rockstar's official website, according to Consequence.
In-game radio has been a defining feature of the franchise since Grand Theft Auto III, blending licensed music with fictional hosts and satire. The six GTA VI radio stations carry that tradition forward with the biggest celebrity DJ roster the series has ever assembled, and each channel already has confirmed branding and sample songs. The sheer range of talent — from reggaeton and Afrobeats stars to country singers and metal legends — shows how central music has become to the series' cultural footprint.
The Full Lineup of GTA VI radio stations
Cocoteo FM is Leonida's home for modern Latin music, hosted by El Martillo — voiced by Bad Bunny — and La Gata, voiced by RaiNao. Described by Rockstar as the party that never stops, the station spins bachata, merengue, dembow, and reggaeton. Sample songs include Bad Bunny's "EoO," Axel Rulay's "Si Es Trucho Es Trucho (Remix)" featuring Farruko and El Alfa, and Romeo Santos with El Chaval de la Bachata on "Canalla," according to Consequence.
Back Country Radio blasts renegade country across the Grassrivers and Port Gellhorn. Morgan Wallen voices MW, Lana Del Rey voices Delta Dawne, and Del Rey's husband Jeremy Dufrene voices Mud Dog Mike — a roving reporter who also serves as swamp meteorologist and airboat captain. Sample songs include David Allan Coe's "Need a Little Time Off for Bad Behavior," Loretta Lynn's "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)," and Hank Williams Jr. with Waylon Jennings on "The Conversation," as reported by Just Jared.
The remaining four channels round out the dial. Flash FM, the Vice City pop institution, pairs Robyn with model Alex Consani and features Charli xcx, MGMT, and a Zara Larsson and PinkPantheress collaboration. Dirty South Classics delivers regional rap and hip-hop from Trick Daddy as Trick and Trina, playing David Banner, JT Money, and DJ Khaled's "Born N Raised." AfroBank FM focuses on African music with Burna Boy as Burna and DJ Palms Trax as Palmsy, spinning Asake and DJ Lag. The Chamber 106.6 goes full metal with Slayer's Kerry King and Tom Araya as DJ Kerry and DJ Tom, playing Black Sabbath, Pantera, and Slayer's "Raining Blood," according to The Fader. Together, the six GTA VI radio stations cover everything from Latin party anthems to crushing metal.
GTA VI radio stations: From Trailers to Launch
Rockstar confirmed GTA VI was in development in February 2022, then released the first official trailer in December 2023, revealing the Leonida setting and protagonists Jason and Lucia. A second trailer followed in May 2025, alongside a delay from the original 2025 window to May 26, 2026. After another postponement confirmed in November 2025, the game is now locked for November 19, 2026. The October 8, 2026 radio reveal arrives just six weeks before launch — the latest drumbeat in a marketing rollout that has already broken viewership records.
How to Preview the GTA VI radio stations Today
All six GTA VI radio stations can be previewed right now on Rockstar's official website, giving listeners a taste of each channel's sound ahead of the November 19, 2026 launch. Separately from the stations, Rockstar is releasing a soundtrack album of 34 original tracks from artists including Travis Scott, PinkPantheress, Morgan Wallen, Keith Richards, and Future.
The game is also changing how players hear the music. GTA VI adds on-demand podcasts alongside radio, according to GamingBolt, and protagonists Jason and Lucia can listen to both in vehicles and on foot through headphones or earbuds connected to their smartphones. It is a small but meaningful shift: the franchise's soundscape is no longer confined to the driver's seat.
Lana Del Rey, who voices Delta Dawne, described the role as deeply personal. The singer told Rolling Stone she is a longtime fan of the franchise and said she "can't wait to get into the game and start playing." She added that when some of her family first visited Los Angeles, they already knew the roads from playing the game — a sign of how deeply the series has woven itself into real life.
