Rocket League was released by Psyonix in 2015, combining football with rocket-powered cars in fast five-minute matches. Its post-match victory cue became familiar through millions of online games, streams and highlight videos shared across YouTube and Twitch. As the game grew into a major esport and later went free to play in 2020, the sound stayed tied to winning a match and climbing the ranks. Creators now lift it outside the game as a shorthand celebration for any hard-earned win.
