GTA VI: Rockstar confirms Justice composed the original score, with a 30-track album coming December 11

Vice City is getting a French electronic soundtrack.

Rockstar Games confirmed on October 29, 2026, that Justice, the duo comprising Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay, composed the original score for Grand Theft Auto VI.

The announcement reveals how the music will accompany Jason and Lucia's adventures.

Rather than simply providing a collection of songs for the game's radio stations, Justice has created an adaptive score designed to respond to gameplay.

Rockstar also announced a 30-track album scheduled for December 11, alongside a new single featuring Gesaffelstein.

Justice is responsible for the original score

Justice is the French electronic duo formed by Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay.

The Grammy-winning musicians are known for combining electronic production, powerful synthesizers, distinctive rhythms and rock influences.

Rockstar commissioned the pair to create GTA VI's original score.

That assignment is distinct from selecting licensed or newly recorded songs for the game's radio stations.

Grand Theft Auto's in-game radio traditionally draws from many different artists and genres, helping define the atmosphere of its fictional cities.

The original score has a different role.

It accompanies narrative sequences, moments of tension and gameplay situations that may change depending on player actions.

Justice's work is intended to connect those different experiences through a coherent musical identity.

The music will adapt to gameplay

Rockstar explicitly describes the score as adaptive.

Its compositions are dynamically tuned to the ways players interact with Vice City and the wider state of Leonida.

This establishes an important distinction between the album versions of the compositions and their interactive implementation.

A musical theme may serve different situations without necessarily playing in exactly the same arrangement every time.

The concept is particularly relevant to an open-world game in which players constantly move between exploration, driving, missions and combat.

However, Rockstar has not explained the complete technical implementation.

The announcement does not identify which gameplay parameters trigger musical transitions or how many instrumental layers are used.

The adaptive nature of the score is confirmed, but its precise operation remains to be experienced.

Pusher featuring Gesaffelstein is available now

Rockstar accompanied the announcement with a new single titled Pusher.

The composition brings Justice together with fellow French electronic artist Gesaffelstein.

It became available on music streaming services on October 29.

The song offers an early example of the musical direction before the game's release.

Rockstar also highlights Flower in a Hurricane, another Justice composition featuring several guest artists.

The track brings together Tame Impala, SZA and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.

Players have already heard it in the GTA VI launch trailer published on October 15.

These songs illustrate the collaborative approach behind the original score.

They do not represent the complete tracklist.

The 30-track album launches December 11

Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score by Justice will be released on December 11, 2026.

Rockstar confirms 30 main tracks and additional digital bonus material.

The album will be available through major streaming platforms.

Physical editions include a double CD and triple vinyl.

A limited Triple Crystal Clear Vinyl pressing has also been announced.

Preorders for physical releases and digital pre-saves are available.

Rockstar's announcement does not establish a single worldwide retail price for every edition.

Pricing may differ between regions and retailers.

GTA VI has two separate music albums

The latest announcement should not be confused with Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album.

That compilation is a separate release featuring 34 original tracks from a broader range of artists.

It is scheduled for November 19, alongside the game itself.

Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score by Justice instead focuses on the duo's compositions created for the interactive experience.

Its release follows on December 11.

Both projects contribute to GTA VI's musical identity, but they serve different purposes and have different release schedules.

Music designed for Vice City and Leonida

The world of GTA VI provides a particularly broad setting for an original score.

Rockstar's game takes place in Leonida, a fictional state inspired in part by Florida.

Vice City is one of its central urban locations.

The city combines beaches, nightlife, skyscrapers and a popular culture influenced by entertainment and modern media.

The story follows Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, two protagonists who become entangled in a criminal conspiracy after a relatively straightforward job goes wrong.

They must rely on one another to survive as events expand beyond their original plans.

The score will need to support that narrative while responding to the freedom of an open-world game.

That challenge is central to the adaptive compositions Rockstar has described.

GTA VI remains scheduled for November 19

The October 29 music announcement does not change the game's release schedule.

Grand Theft Auto VI remains set for November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Preorders are already available.

Rockstar has not announced a PC release date.

The developer released an extended gameplay presentation in August, followed by the official launch trailer on October 15.

The latter featured Flower in a Hurricane, now confirmed as part of Justice's original score.

The latest announcement therefore provides an important answer about the game's production: the identity of the musicians responsible for its original score.

Players will be able to experience its interactive variations when the game arrives, before the full album is released in December.

GTA VI is scheduled for November 19, while Justice's original score album arrives December 11.
