Dead by Daylight, released in 2016 by Behaviour Interactive, uses skill checks as a core survival mechanic, with great skill checks rewarding precise timing with extra progress and a distinct success sound. The chime became familiar to players through countless matches, streams and highlight reels, where it signals a moment of mastery under pressure. It later spread beyond the game into short-form edits and reaction videos, where creators reuse it to mark any perfectly timed action, keeping it recognisable even for viewers who do not play Dead by Daylight.

The great skill check sound effect from Dead by Daylight, the sharp success chime heard when a survivor nails perfect timing during a repair or heal.
This is the bright, satisfying chime that plays in Dead by Daylight when a player lands a great skill check. It is a short, high-pitched ping with a clean, rewarding ring that cuts through the game's tense background noise, signalling perfect timing rather than just a pass. In a match, the sound gives instant feedback, turning a stressful repair, heal or sabotage into a small moment of triumph, and it is often paired with a burst of extra progress on the generator. For viewers, it is instantly recognisable, creating a feeling of relief and skill, especially when it lands under pressure from the killer nearby.
