GTA 6 score: Justice and Gesaffelstein release 'Pusher'; full album December 11

French electronic duo Justice released "Pusher", a new track from the Grand Theft Auto VI score made with fellow French producer Gesaffelstein, worldwide at midnight local time on Thursday, October 29, 2026, after it appeared early on Spotify in New Zealand. Rockstar Games has said the full Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score by Justice will come out on December 11, 2026. For players still asking when GTA 6 is coming out, the game itself launches on November 19, 2026, so the full score album follows about three weeks later.

Grand Theft Auto VI is one of the most anticipated video games in years, with pre-orders and launch-day forecasts making headlines for weeks. Bringing in Justice, a Grammy-winning duo, to write an original score gives the game a distinct sound of its own.

The release itself showed how global the audience is. Because "Pusher" was set to go live at midnight local time in each country, listeners in New Zealand, one of the first places to reach midnight, heard it hours before everyone else. The earlier score track, "Flower in a Hurricane", has been reported to feature Tame Impala and SZA, which suggests the score will mix Justice's electronic style with well-known guest artists.

"Pusher" is described in reviews as dark and industrial, built on heavy bass and synthesisers, which suits a crime game. Releasing tracks before launch is also a marketing tool: each new song keeps the game in the news, on music charts and across social media in the final weeks before November 19.

For young gamers in India, the GTA VI launch is a major event, but it comes with practical questions about which console to buy and what it will cost. Music releases like "Pusher" let fans experience part of the game for free, on streaming apps, before they decide.

There is also a lesson for aspiring creators. Game music is now a career path in its own right, with composers, sound designers and music supervisors working on major titles. A score released as a full album, on streaming and on vinyl, shows how game music now reaches listeners who may never play the game.

Short-term: "Pusher" adds to the build-up before the November 19 launch and gives fans a first long listen to the game's original score.

Long-term: A strong original score could make GTA VI's music a lasting product of its own, as streaming and vinyl sales extend the game's reach beyond players.

Who is affected: GTA fans waiting for the launch, music listeners who follow Justice and Gesaffelstein, and console buyers in India and elsewhere planning their purchases.
