Justice Composed the Score for Grand Theft Auto VI

French electronic duo Justice, comprised of Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay, has composed the original score for the highly anticipated video game Grand Theft Auto VI, as confirmed by Pitchfork.com. This marks a significant collaboration, with the producers tasked to create a musical backdrop that matches the game's vast geographical and thematic scope.

The soundtrack for GTA VI is set to be released as a standalone album, separate from the game's in-world soundtrack, which features numerous high-profile artists. The official score, described as a 30-track suite lasting approximately three hours, will be released on December 11 through a partnership among Rockstar Games, Because Music, and Ed Banger Records.

Justice's work on the score follows their critically acclaimed 2024 album Hyperdrama. Their prior success includes winning a Grammy Award in 2025 for the track "Neverender," a collaboration with Tame Impala. For GTA VI, Justice continued its tradition of high-profile collaborations, contributing a track titled "Flower in a Hurricane," which features Tame Impala, SZA, and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard.

The duo emphasized the need for a diverse array of musical styles and emotional tones to complement the game's expansive world. According to reports, they were granted artistic freedom to explore various genres and textures in their compositions, reflecting the game's multifaceted narrative and settings.

This project represents a continuation of Rockstar Games' tradition of collaborating with prominent musicians for their Grand Theft Auto series. The last score effort, released in 2013 for Grand Theft Auto V, was a joint venture featuring artists such as The Alchemist, Tangerine Dream, Woody Jackson, and Oh No, with DJ Shadow handling the mixing and synchronization.

In addition to the original score, Rockstar has introduced a fresh lineup of in-game radio stations for GTA VI, adding contemporary artists as curators and DJs. Notable personalities include Bad Bunny hosting Cocoteo FM, Robyn helming Flash FM, and Lana Del Rey curating Back Country Radio, among others, enhancing the game's immersive atmosphere.

The soundtrack rollout for GTA VI is unfolding gradually ahead of the game's official release, scheduled for November 19. Fans have already been given a preview with the release of "Pusher," a track produced in collaboration with Gesaffelstein, which is part of the forthcoming album.

Overall, Justice's involvement in GTA VI signals a deliberate effort to elevate the game's aural experience through an expansive and carefully crafted original score. The release of the soundtrack as an independent album further underscores the significance of this musical component within the broader context of the game's launch.
