The Mission Passed cue comes from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released by Rockstar Games in 2004. It became one of the most recognizable completion sounds in gaming because the game was hugely popular and widely shared online. Meme edits later turned it into a punchline for any kind of success, especially over-the-top or ironic victories. It is often paired with CJ references from the same game, including the well-known Aw Shit! Here go again quote, which helps keep the San Andreas audio style familiar across short videos.
About this sound
The iconic Mission Passed jingle from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, used in memes, wins and ironic success edits after anything goes right.
This clip is the familiar Mission Passed sound from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the short victory cue that plays after you complete an objective. It has a clean, gamey chime with a triumphant feel, and many versions online add extra bass for a louder meme punch. The sound instantly signals success, payoff or relief, so viewers recognize the joke before the moment is even over. It works equally well for genuine wins and for exaggerated edits where the achievement is tiny, accidental or clearly undeserved.
