GTA 6 trailer 2 has four songs, and Rockstar credits only one
Rockstar put the second GTA 6 trailer online with no warning on May 6, 2025, a week after pushing the game back to May 26, 2026. Four songs play across its 167 seconds, and the official description names exactly one of them.

The second GTA 6 trailer went up with no advance notice on May 6, 2025 at 13:29 UTC, a week after the game moved from autumn 2025 to May 26, 2026. It runs 167 seconds, or 2:47, and four songs play in it. Rockstar Games credits only one: Hot Together by The Pointer Sisters, released in 1986, the year GTA: Vice City was set.
The second Grand Theft Auto VI trailer went up with no advance notice on May 6, 2025 at 13:29 UTC, a week after the game moved from autumn 2025 to May 26, 2026. It runs 167 seconds, or 2:47, and four songs play in it. Rockstar Games credits only one.
That one is “Hot Together” by The Pointer Sisters, released in 1986, the year GTA: Vice City was set. Its credit takes three lines in the video description: “Written by Sharon Robinson / Published by Universal Music Corp. on behalf of itself, Buchu Music and Robinhill Music (ASCAP) / Courtesy of RCA Records, a division of Sony Music Entertainment”. The song only comes in at the end, over the reunion outside the prison.
The other three play earlier, on a car radio. NME identified them the same day, May 6, 2025, and none of the three appears in the official description.
| Song | Artist | Where it plays | Credited by Rockstar |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot Together | The Pointer Sisters | The reunion outside the prison | Yes, in the video description |
| Everybody Have Fun Tonight | Wang Chung | Car radio, driving sequence | No |
| Child Support | Zenglen and 5 Etwal | Car radio, driving sequence | No |
| Talkin’ To Myself Again | Tammy Wynette | Car radio, driving sequence | No |

The third one carries the most weight. “Child Support” is Haitian konpa, a dance music tied to the Haitian diaspora of South Florida, and as late as August 23, 2026 Gulf News still treated it as the only pointer from an official source towards a Caribbean-leaning radio station. Every other station name in circulation comes from the leaks, and our soundtrack guide keeps the two apart.
What the trailer did to streaming was measured. Rockstar told The Hollywood Reporter that Spotify logged a 182,000 percent rise in streams of “Hot Together” within two hours of the upload. The description of trailer 1, back in December 2023, also credited a single track: Tom Petty’s “Love Is a Long Road”, up 36,979 percent on Spotify according to Universal Music Publishing.

The fifth song nobody can pin to a trailer
The press lists Jay Ferguson’s “Thunder Island” among the songs used in the official GTA 6 trailers, but no level 1 or level 2 source says which trailer it belongs to. Attributing it to trailer 2 rests on a fan-maintained database and nothing more.
