What music is cut from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City – Definitive Edition?

Alas it is true, not all songs appear anew!

We are all excited to play Vice City - Definitive Edition and listen to that great soundtrack again. However, are all of the songs going to be in there? The original game was released in 2002, meaning it's been a while since they first agreed upon the playlist.

Unfortunately, not all of the songs that you remember will be in the upcoming re-master. Due to licensing conflicts, a few songs will be omitted from the game (they were really good ones too!) Find the songs that have been taken out below.

Missing songs

  • Wow – Kate Bush
  • Bark at the Moon – Ozzy Osbourne
  • Rockit – Herbie Hancock
  • Looking for the Perfect Beat – Afrika Bambaataa and The Soul Sonic Force
  • The Smurf – Tyrone Brunson
  • Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ – Michael Jackson
  • Billie Jean – Michael Jackson
  • Running with the Night – Lionel Richie
  • Añunga Ñunga – Irakere

Songs that are not currently showing on Rockstar's list (but may still be in-game)

  • Cum On Feel the Noize – Quiet Riot
  • She Sells Sanctuary – The Cult
  • Working for the Weekend – Loverboy
  • God Blessed Video – Alcatrazz
  • Fist Fury – Love Fist
  • Cars – Gary Numan
  • Poison Arrow – ABC
  • Obsession – Animotion
  • Video Killed the Radio Star – The Buggles
  • Japanese Boy – Aneka
  • Steppin’ Out – Joe Jackson
  • One Thing Leads to Another – The Fixx
  • Pump Me Up – Trouble Funk
  • Get It Girl – 2 Live Crew
  • A Gozar Con Mi Combo – Cachao

Here's to hoping that Rockstar and the record companies can re-negotiate a deal so we can get these songs back in the game! At least in the age of digital content, we will just be able to receive an update if they do instead of buying the disc again.
