The GTA 6 trailer is here and many of you will surely have a catchy tune from the theme song “Love is a long road”. This does not come from Genesis as expected, but from another star.

Rockstar has finally released the first trailer for GTA 6. This not only reveals that the game will be released in 2025, but also confirms Vice City as the setting. In the almost one and a half minute long clip we also get to know the main character Lucia. The video is accompanied by the song Love Is A Long Road by singer Tom Petty, who died in 2017.
That is quite surprising. In October, a leaker on Reddit claimed his wife had already seen the trailer and explained that Rockstar accompanied the clip with the song “That’s All” by Genesis. It is unclear whether this is just a fake or whether Rockstar changed its mind at short notice. Of the scenes described on Reddit, only a few can be found in the trailer that has now been published.
Tom Petty Love Is A Long Road is song from the GTA 6 trailer
You can listen to the song in full on YouTube. We have included it for you below. Alternatively, you can also buy or stream it on Amazon.
The US singer’s origins could have been decisive for Petty. He was born in Gainesville, Florida in 1950. The setting of GTA 6 is a fictional version of the Florida metropolis of Miami. In this respect, a suitable choice. According to the online magazine Polygon, the song itself was released in 1989 as the B-side of Petty’s hit “Free Fallin”.
Rockstar also hidden a little Tom Petty-related Easter egg in the trailer. At the end of the trailer, Lucia and Jason storm into a convenience store armed. Its door is adorned with a “Petty Forever” sticker.
