Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft's tactical first-person shooter released in 2015, made sound a core part of play, with footsteps, gadgets and breaching noises telling players where enemies were moving. Clips of its distinctive audio spread through gameplay videos, streams and soundboards, where fans reused short effects outside matches. Footsteps remain especially popular because they instantly signal a Rainbow Six match to other players, and editors borrow them to add game-like tension to unrelated videos, from comedy sketches to horror-style shorts.

Quiet, tense footsteps from Rainbow Six Siege as an operator moves through a building. Creators use it for stealth gameplay, suspense edits and tense moments.
This seven-second clip captures the careful, echoing footsteps of an operator in Rainbow Six Siege, moving slowly across hard floors inside a building while gear shifts softly with each step. The sound is quiet but tense, with uneven pacing that makes the listener strain to hear what comes next, as if someone is sneaking up or closing in. It works because footsteps carry so much information in the game, signalling danger, direction and distance without a single word, and that same tension transfers instantly to a video, making a calm scene feel watched, hunted or about to turn.
