First heard in Grand Theft Auto V, released by Rockstar Games in 2013, the Wasted cue has become one of gaming's most recognisable death sounds, carried from the console into countless edits, streams and memes. Unlike the lighter GTA V notification that signals a message or event, this sting marks total failure, which is why it still works outside the game itself. Its slow, sinking tone is instantly understood even by viewers who have never played, giving creators a shorthand for defeat that needs no explanation.

The death screen sound from Grand Theft Auto V, a descending tone when the player dies. Creators use it for fails, knockouts and game over moments in videos.
This is the alternative version of the sound that plays when your character dies in Grand Theft Auto V, as the screen fades to grey and the word Wasted appears in large black lettering. It opens with a low, drawn-out musical sting that sinks downward in pitch, giving the moment a heavy, almost comedic sense of finality rather than a sharp shock. The slow fall makes a defeat feel dramatic and instantly recognisable to anyone who has played the game, which is why editors often let it ring out over a failed stunt, a lost fight or a badly timed decision before cutting to the next scene.
