The Role of Radio Stations in GTA Games
In all GTA games, radio stations play a significant role in setting the stage. Rockstar Games includes a variety of radio stations to accommodate different tastes, filled with songs from the era the game takes place.
GTA 6 Details and Expectations
GTA 6 is slowly materializing with more details becoming available each day. We can expect to have a better idea of the game’s location once the GTA 6 trailer is released in December.
The Influence of Place and Time on GTA 6’s Radio Stations and Songs
The place and time of GTA 6 matter greatly when it comes to choosing the game’s radio stations and songs. They need to reflect the same period in which the game is set. Rumors suggest that Vice City may be featured in the game, and this has affected our wishlist for GTA 6’s radio.
Potential Songs for GTA 6 Radio
Here are some songs that could be a great fit for GTA 6’s radio:
- Haddaway — What Is Love
- The Weeknd — Blinding Lights
- Will Smith — Miami
- Deep Purple — Smoke on the Water
- Queen — Another One Bites the Dust

Song Recommendations for GTA 6 Radio
Haddaway’s “What Is Love” captures the 90s nostalgia and energetic beat of Vice City’s nightclub district. It can be a flexible choice for multiple radio stations.
“Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd perfectly captures the dark and neon-lit environment of Vice City, making it a great choice for high-speed chases.
Will Smith’s “Miami” with its energetic rhythm and Miami-themed lyrics would be a fitting song for GTA 6, aligning with the lively atmosphere of the fictional city.
Deep Purple’s “Smoke on the Water” is a great pick for V-Rock station fans, with its iconic tempo adding an extra adrenaline rush to missions.
In addition to Queen’s “Radio Ga Ga” featured in GTA 5, we’d love to see more songs from the legendary band in GTA 6, especially if the game is set in the 80s-90s era.
Considering the copyright restrictions faced by content creators on Twitch streams and YouTube videos, we expect a Copyright Free station to be included in GTA 6 to enable creators to have their radio on during gameplay.
