Grand Theft Auto V, released by Rockstar Games in 2013, gives its three protagonists in-game phones, and this chime plays whenever one of them receives a text message during story missions or open-world play. As clips and edits from the game spread on YouTube and TikTok, viewers began recognising the tone outside its original context and reusing it as a shorthand for a message arriving. A cleaned-up version, with background noise removed and the start and end trimmed, made it easier to drop into short videos, which helped it stay popular as a notification gag after the game's launch.

The GTA V notification sound from Grand Theft Auto V, a short electronic chime for incoming text messages that creators use as a message alert in edits.
This is the brief, clean notification chime that plays in Grand Theft Auto V when a character gets a new text message. It is a short, bright electronic tone with a quick rising pitch and a soft, rounded finish, lasting less than a second and cutting through dialogue without sounding harsh. Because players hear it so often during missions and free roam, it instantly signals that something new has arrived, creating a small jolt of curiosity. In videos it works the same way, making viewers glance up and expect a message, a reveal, or a punchline to follow.
