GTA 6’s Justice Song ‘Pusher’ Is Out Early — and the Score Album Has 50 Songs

✅ CONFIRMED — the song itself is confirmed: Justice and Gesaffelstein’s “Pusher” is a real GTA VI Original Score track, released to Spotify on a staggered local-midnight rollout and backed by an official Rockstar-copyrighted YouTube upload. The 11 December date for the full Original Score album is different: it comes from a New Zealand Apple Music listing reported by Insider Gaming, not from a Rockstar announcement, and is flagged as reported wherever it appears below.

Grand Theft Auto VI has a new song out in the world three weeks before launch — and New Zealand heard it first. Justice and Gesaffelstein’s “Pusher”, a seven-minute cut from the game’s original score, appeared on Spotify in New Zealand on 28 October 2026, a day ahead of its scheduled 29 October release everywhere else, because the rollout follows local midnight rather than one global hour.

Quick answer: Justice and Gesaffelstein’s “Pusher” is a 7:02 track from the GTA VI Original Score. It reached Spotify in New Zealand on 28 October 2026 and rolls out elsewhere at local midnight on 29 October. It is separate from the 34-track Album, and a New Zealand Apple listing reported by Insider Gaming puts the 50-song score album out on 11 December.

The official upload is titled “The Music of Grand Theft Auto VI: Pusher by Justice”, and its description credits the track to Justice and Gesaffelstein “from GTA VI Original Score”, with copyright held by Justice and Rockstar Games 2026. That upload is the primary evidence here: this is not a leak, a datamine or a fan re-upload, but a track Rockstar itself is putting out under the game’s music banner.

Key takeaways

• Justice and Gesaffelstein’s “Pusher” is a 7:02 track from the GTA VI Original Score, not a single from Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album.
• It appeared on Spotify in New Zealand on 28 October 2026, ahead of its scheduled 29 October local release in other regions.
• Justice — French duo Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay — were announced on 15 October as the composers of GTA 6’s original score.
• Insider Gaming reports a New Zealand Apple Music listing for GTA VI: Original Score with 50 songs, releasing 11 December — a store listing, not a Rockstar announcement.
• Rockstar has not confirmed where, or whether, “Pusher” itself appears inside the game — mission, nightclub or radio station all remain unconfirmed.

What is GTA 6’s “Pusher” by Justice and Gesaffelstein?

“Pusher” is a 7-minute, 2-second electronic track by French duo Justice, featuring French producer Gesaffelstein, released as part of the GTA VI Original Score. Keengamer, which reported the New Zealand release on 28 October, notes the track appears in the GTA VI soundtrack’s Spotify listing, while Beebom confirms the same 7:02 runtime and the 29 October local release date for other regions.

The pairing matters because of what each act brings. Justice, the duo of Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay, have spent two decades making the kind of big, distorted electronic music that suits a game’s cinematic peaks, and Gesaffelstein is known for a darker, industrial electronic sound. Beebom’s early verdict calls the track a late-night electronic jam that sounds built for a heist sequence — but that is a reviewer’s impression, not Rockstar’s description of where the music is used.

Why did New Zealand hear “Pusher” first?

New Zealand heard “Pusher” first because the release follows local midnight on 29 October, and New Zealand’s clocks run hours ahead of Europe and the Americas. Keengamer attributes the early availability to that time-zone difference rather than an unauthorised leak, after the track was flagged on X by Ben. The same staggered pattern explains why the song showed as locked or greyed out for listeners elsewhere on 28 October.

For everyone outside New Zealand, the practical answer is simply to wait for local midnight on 29 October, when the track unlocks region by region. There is no separate global premiere time to watch for, and no indication that the early New Zealand appearance was a mistake — it is how the rollout is designed to work.

Is “Pusher” part of GTA 6: The Album, or something else?

“Pusher” belongs to the GTA VI Original Score, a separate body of music from Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album. The Album is the 34-track collection of original songs made with Atlantic Records, launching alongside the game on 19 November 2026, with contributions from artists including Cardi B, Fuerza Regida, Travis Scott and Morgan Wallen. The score, by contrast, is Justice’s instrumental music for the game’s cinematic moments, missions and gameplay sequences.

That distinction matters, because GTA 6 now has three music layers that are easy to confuse: The Album’s original songs, Justice’s in-game score music, and the in-game radio stations — six previewed on Rockstar’s site on 8 October, from Flash FM to Dirty South Classics. “Pusher” sits in the score layer, which is why it is credited to Justice and Gesaffelstein rather than to an Album artist. See our GTA 6 soundtrack and album tracklist guide for the full Album picture, and our Justice “Flower in a Hurricane” launch-trailer song deep-dive for the score’s first preview.

When does the full GTA VI Original Score album come out?

Insider Gaming reports that a New Zealand Apple Music listing for Grand Theft Auto VI: Original Score shows exactly 50 songs and a release date of 11 December 2026, nearly a month after the game’s 19 November launch. The same report notes that two of those 50 tracks are already released: “Pusher” and “Flower in a Hurricane”, Justice’s launch-trailer song featuring Tame Impala, SZA and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.

Treat 11 December as reported, not announced. Keengamer notes that Rockstar has teased a separate album of Justice’s score but that its release date and complete tracklist remain unannounced by the studio, and Rockstar has published no separate announcement specifically for “Pusher” either. If the listing is accurate, 48 of the 50 score tracks are still unheard — a substantial second soundtrack drop landing after launch week, when players will already know which moments the music belongs to.

Where will players hear “Pusher” in the game?

Nobody outside Rockstar has confirmed that yet. Keengamer is explicit that Rockstar has not confirmed whether “Pusher” will accompany a particular mission, nightclub or radio station, and the track’s score credit points away from radio: score music is written for cinematic moments and gameplay sequences, not for station playlists. Fans are already speculating about heist scenes and Boobie Ike’s nightclubs, but that speculation is not evidence.

The honest way to think about it is that “Pusher” is currently a piece of pre-launch music marketing that also happens to be real game music. Justice’s score was announced alongside the launch trailer on 15 October, and “Flower in a Hurricane” doubled as both that trailer’s song and a score track. “Pusher” follows the same pattern: released early, credited to the score, with its in-game moment still to be discovered when the game launches on 19 November on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

What this means

Rockstar is now drip-feeding GTA 6’s music the way it drip-feeds everything else: one verifiable piece at a time, each one giving fans something real to listen to without giving away the game. A seven-minute Justice and Gesaffelstein track is a confident choice for that strategy — it is long, instrumental-leaning and atmospheric, the kind of music that sells a mood rather than a plot point, and it keeps the soundtrack conversation alive in the final three weeks before launch.

The bigger signal is the 50-song score album itself. If the December listing holds, Rockstar is planning a second music event after launch, separate from the 34-track Album. For now, the score’s known tally stands at two: “Flower in a Hurricane” from the launch trailer, and “Pusher”, out now region by region. Our GTA 6 release date countdown tracks the 19 November launch, and our GTA 6 pre-load and download size guide covers the 12 November pre-load — the dates that decide when players actually hear the rest of this music in context.

The track’s existence, 7:02 runtime, New Zealand-first rollout and 29 October local release date are consistent across all four outlets; the 11 December score-album date rests on a single store listing reported by Insider Gaming and is labelled reported throughout, since Rockstar has not announced it. No in-game placement for “Pusher” is claimed, because no source confirms one.
