GTA 6: The Album — September announcement, release date and formats
Rockstar’s September 17 announcement confirms a companion album with Atlantic Records, 34 original tracks and physical editions scheduled alongside GTA VI on November 19.
The conversation / 35A standalone album announcement
Rockstar announced Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album on September 17, 2026, describing it as an official soundtrack album created in partnership with Atlantic Records. The announcement says it is scheduled to arrive on November 19 alongside GTA VI and contains 34 original tracks inspired by the world of Vice City and Leonida.
The album announcement is separate from a complete in-game radio-station track list. An original soundtrack album and licensed music heard in the game are related, but they are not automatically the same catalogue. Rockstar has not said that the 34 album tracks represent every song available on GTA VI’s radio.
Pre-save and physical formats
Rockstar’s Newswire post says the album is available to pre-save on major streaming services and that limited-edition vinyl and CD sets are available to pre-order. It also identifies a liquid-filled vinyl, a splatter edition and a CD jewel case among formats associated with the album launch; availability and purchase terms belong to the linked official album/store listings.
Collectors should check the destination store for region, shipping, pressing and stock information. A limited physical format can have different availability from a streaming release, so a pre-save should not be mistaken for a vinyl or CD order.
What the announcement does—and does not—confirm
The first-party announcement confirms the album partnership, the announced 34-track count, the November 19 launch alignment, and physical-format plans. It provides a reliable update for readers searching for a GTA 6 soundtrack album or GTA VI music release date.
It does not give a complete final radio-station list, every artist and track in the game, or confirmation that every album song appears during gameplay. We will keep those questions separate and update them only when an official listing or Rockstar statement answers them.
