Metal Slug 3 is a run-and-gun arcade game developed by SNK and first released in 2000 for the Neo Geo system, continuing the series known for hand-drawn animation, over-the-top weapons and chaotic action. The grenade is one of the player's basic weapons, so its throw and explosion became a familiar sound for anyone who played the arcade original or later console and mobile ports. As retro gameplay clips and soundboards spread online, the short blast was reused far beyond the game itself, and it remains popular because it instantly signals cartoonish destruction without sounding realistic.

The grenade throw and explosion sound effect from Metal Slug 3, the classic run-and-gun arcade game, used by creators for explosive moments and gaming edits.
This short clip captures the moment a grenade leaves the player's hand in Metal Slug 3, starting with a quick, light toss sound before a punchy, cartoonish explosion bursts through with a deep boom and crackling debris. It has the bright, slightly crunchy retro arcade quality of the original game, so it feels instantly playful rather than realistic or threatening. In a video it lands as a sudden jolt of chaos, perfect for punctuating a failed plan, a dramatic entrance, or a joke that blows up in someone's face, because listeners recognise the game sound and expect something over the top to follow.
