Earlier clips claimed to be the theme remain UNCONFIRMED, and we haven't verified they match the new video.
The short version
Since PS5 preload opened, a SynthPotato video filmed on a TV shows the PS5 home screen playing music when the GTA VI tile is selected. We have not verified whether that audio matches earlier clips. TexFunz2 posted a clip on 9 November labelled PS5 home screen background music and credited @Word, whose original public post was not recovered. We watched those earlier clips and found only static GTA VI promo art with audio and no PlayStation interface. iGrandTheftAuto wrote that it can confirm the claim is real, without saying what it checked. Rockstar and Sony have not listed a theme.
Quick answer
Is there confirmed GTA 6 PS5 home screen music?
Not officially. A player video filmed after PS5 preload opened shows the home screen playing music when the GTA VI tile is selected. Earlier clips credited via TexFunz2 to @Word remain unconfirmed and showed only static promo art. We have not matched the audio. Rockstar and Sony have not listed a theme.
Updated, 9 November. Since PS5 preload opened, a player video filmed on a TV (SynthPotato) shows the PS5 home screen playing music when the GTA VI tile is selected. We haven't verified whether it's the same audio as the clips described below.
A preload home screen capture that SynthPotato posted at 11.14am UK on 9 November shows the GTA VI tile downloading. Behind it is Rockstar's existing Jason and Lucia key art, the same pose that appears on the game's cover. That art is already public, so the capture reveals nothing new. Our preload guide has the download timetable.
A rumour about GTA 6 music is spreading on X. The catch is what the earlier videos actually show.
What does the GTA 6 PS5 music rumour claim?
It claims the audio is PS5 home screen background music for Grand Theft Auto VI. TexFunz2 posted that label at 7.44am GMT on 9 November, with a video and a credit to @Word.
Our search of @Word's recent posts recovered only Word's repost of TexFunz2. The original public Word capture was not found.
What do the earlier clips actually show?
Static GTA VI promo art with audio. We watched the TexFunz2 clip and found one collage of GTA VI promo art for the whole runtime, with continuous sound and no PlayStation home UI, tile, clock or console chrome.
A second clip from iGrandTheftAuto is a separate upload. We watched that clip too and still found only Jason and Lucia beach promo art with audio, and again no PS5 interface.

Did anyone confirm the GTA 6 music claim?
Not in a way that settles the earlier clips. iGrandTheftAuto replied "Can confirm this is real" to TexFunz2. The reply names no check, attachment or console capture.
Relays from GTASixInfo, gtasix_, GTAonlineNews and GTABase reuse roughly 58 second reuploads, so the earlier clips trace back to one attributed chain. The SynthPotato video is a separate recording, not a relay.
What should players do with this rumour?
Treat the earlier static clips as unconfirmed colour next to real preload facts. Our preload date and time guide covers Rockstar's 10 November start and the 212 GB figure. For wider music context, see the radio stations guide and the GTA 6 FAQ.
A filmed PS5 home screen with music has now appeared. The earlier static clips remain unconfirmed, and we have not matched the audio. Rockstar and Sony have not listed a theme.
