A song titled “Welcome to Vice City” has surfaced in the Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC) music rights database, featuring songwriting credits associated with Bad Bunny, Diplo and several other producers. The discovery, shared by Grand Theft Auto fans on November 10, 2026, has prompted speculation that the track could appear in Grand Theft Auto VI or serve as its opening theme. However, Rockstar Games has not confirmed any connection between the registered song and the upcoming release.
The listing identifies the composition under song code WV4FZB and includes ten songwriting credit entries. Among the credited names are Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, better known as Bad Bunny, Thomas Wesley Pentz, professionally known as Diplo, and German producer Maximilian Hans Jaeger.
Other credited contributors include Marco Daniel Borrero, Roberto José Rosado Torres, Jorge Arteaga, Raquel Maya de Attia and Jorge Antonio Alfonso Jr. The database also contains apparent variations of certain contributor names, meaning the ten entries should not necessarily be interpreted as ten separate individuals.
Publishing information associated with the registration identifies Amadeus Publishing Limited and David Platz Music (USA) Inc. These details establish the composition’s music rights information but do not identify a video game, soundtrack album or intended commercial release.
The discovery began circulating through GTAForums on November 10 before spreading to other gaming communities, including Reddit’s GamingLeaksAndRumours forum. Fans connected the title to Grand Theft Auto VI because Vice City is one of the game’s primary locations, making “Welcome to Vice City” a particularly suggestive name for a potential introductory track.
The speculation also draws comparisons with Grand Theft Auto V, whose soundtrack includes “Welcome to Los Santos” by producer Oh No. That composition helped establish the musical identity of Rockstar’s previous mainline entry, leading some fans to suggest that “Welcome to Vice City” could fulfill a similar role in GTA VI.
Nevertheless, the resemblance between the two titles is not evidence that the newly registered composition was commissioned for Rockstar’s game. The MLC catalog records musical works and their associated rights holders; it does not establish how or where those compositions will ultimately be used.
Bad Bunny’s involvement is particularly noteworthy because his music already has an established connection to GTA VI’s announced soundtrack. Rockstar’s official music material features his track “EoO” in a preview of Cocoteo FM, one of the game’s radio stations. That confirmed radio appearance does not establish any connection between Bad Bunny and the newly discovered “Welcome to Vice City” composition.
The potential soundtrack discovery arrives as Rockstar prepares for Grand Theft Auto VI’s November 19, 2026 launch. The publisher has continued revealing information about the game, including new screenshots featuring Vice City, Jason and Lucia, as its release approaches.
Rockstar has also outlined plans for Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, a collection of original music associated with the game. The existence of that project provides another possible explanation for fan interest in the registration, although there is currently no confirmed evidence that “Welcome to Vice City” belongs to the album.
The MLC entry does not include a matched recording available for public listening, and the available registration details provide no confirmation of the song’s release date, placement in the game or status as an opening theme.
For now, “Welcome to Vice City” remains a documented music registration with an unconfirmed GTA VI connection. Whether the composition appears in the game, its associated album or an unrelated project will require further confirmation from Rockstar Games or the artists involved.
