By If you watched the Pre-Load trailer on November 10 and went straight to Shazam, you weren’t alone. The song is “Blood In Your Eyes” by Tove Lo, and it isn’t an old track dug out of a back catalogue. It’s a brand-new single, released the same day as the video, and it’s part of Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album.
Rockstar confirmed it on X a few hours after the trailer went up: the song is “featured in today’s Pre-Load Now video and also on GTAVI: The Album”, and it’s “available now on all major music streaming services”. Atlantic Records, which puts out the album, sent it out as a new single the same day.
What we know about the song
- Artist: Tove Lo, the Swedish singer-songwriter behind “Habits (Stay High)”.
- Released on November 10, 2026, on all major streaming services.
- First heard in the 30-second Trailer 5, “Pre-Load Now”.
- Part of Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, Rockstar’s 34-track record with Atlantic.
- It’s the album’s tenth single.
The tenth single
Before Tove Lo, the album had nine songs out. Travis Scott’s “RHYNO”, Yung Lean’s “That’s It” with Future and Metro Boomin, Morgan Wallen’s “Last Thing You Need”, Justice’s “Flower in a Hurricane” from Trailer 4, and five more. Two of them were mysteries not long ago: the Fuerza Regida and Cardi B tracks showed up on Spotify with hidden titles in October, and they’re now out as “Suzuki” and “Don’t Chart”.
The singles have done well on the charts, too. According to Atlantic, “Last Thing You Need” debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, Rauw Alejandro’s “Macacoa 2000” made the top 10 of Hot Latin Songs, and “Sexy Magic” got into the top 10 of the dance/electronic chart.
Who is Tove Lo
If the name doesn’t ring a bell, the songs probably will. Her 2014 debut Queen of the Clouds went platinum on the back of “Habits (Stay High)”, she has hits with Nick Jonas and Flume, and she co-wrote Ellie Goulding’s “Love Me Like You Do”. Her more recent work leans toward club music, including the HEAT EP with SG Lewis. That’s probably why the song fits a trailer built around nightclubs and a party on a yacht so well.
She’s touring Europe right now, with Oslo on November 17. Two days later the game she just soundtracked comes out.
What I like here is the order of things. Rockstar could have held the song back for the radio reveal and let players find it on their own. Instead it gave the last trailer a song nobody had heard yet, and the song got its own release on the same day. Whether you’ll catch it on one of the in-game stations, we’ll find out on November 19. The rest of the confirmed music, from the trailer songs to the Justice score, is on our soundtrack page.
