Love Is a Long Road by Tom Petty is confirmed in official GTA 6 media. Rockstar used it in the official GTA 6 Trailer 1. That is where the confirmation ends: no radio station, no soundtrack listing, and no licensing detail has been published.
What Rockstar confirms
- The track plays in the official GTA 6 Trailer 1, published by Rockstar Games.
- It scores the trailer that revealed Jason and Lucia to the public.
- The song is credited to Tom Petty.
Is Love Is a Long Road on a GTA 6 radio station?
Not confirmed. It is the track most people associate with GTA 6, which is exactly why the assumption spreads. Rockstar has not announced a single GTA 6 radio station, its line-up, or its host. Trailer music has appeared on in-game radio in past Rockstar titles and has also been trailer-only, so both outcomes stay open.
Where does the song appear?
It is used in the official GTA 6 Trailer 1. Rockstar publishes that material on its own channels, which is why the usage is treated as confirmed here while the in-game status is not.
What remains unconfirmed
No station assignment, no track position, no full soundtrack list, and no statement about whether the licence covers the game as well as the marketing. Any “GTA 6 soundtrack list” circulating now is assembled by fans from trailers, not published by Rockstar.
Original release
Apple Music lists this recording on Full Moon Fever (1989). That release metadata identifies the recording and cover art; it does not confirm an in-game radio placement.
