Rockstar Games and Justice have announced the official release of the Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score.
The album, which drops on December 11 via Because Music, Ed Banger and Rockstar Games, features 30 tracks and a number of bonus digital tracks comprising three hours of material from the video game, which arrives on November 19.
The Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score will be released on 2CD and 3LP, with a limited-edition crystal-clear vinyl pressing alongside the standard black edition, and is available for pre-order.
We were given the freedom to explore as many things as we needed to, musically speaking, as long as it made sense with the game

Justice's Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay worked on the score in close collaboration with the team at Rockstar Games.
“The scope of the game is so large geographically and thematically that it was clear from the beginning the music would also have to be very broad in terms of emotions, genres, and textures,” said de Rosnay. “We were given the freedom to explore as many things as we needed to, musically speaking, as long as it made sense with the game.”
The duo previewed the score via their hit Flower In A Hurricane (ft. Tame Impala, SZA, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard), which marked Justice’s first non-feature song to hit the US Hot 100 and debuted at No.34 on the US Alternative Radio chart.
They have also shared another track from the album, Pusher, which offers a preview of the instrumental side of the score featuring their inaugural collaboration with fellow French DJ Gesaffelstein.
