The Quest 2 launched in 2020 as the Oculus Quest 2 before Meta rebranded the headset line, and its system sounds became familiar to millions of VR players. Clips of gameplay endings, battery deaths and headset removals spread the shutdown tone beyond VR, especially on YouTube and TikTok where editors reuse game UI sounds as comedy punctuation. Because the chime is short, clean and instantly signals powering off, it survived the rebrand and now works even in non-VR videos as a universal off switch.
