The victory fanfare is associated with Final Fantasy VII, the 1997 role-playing game from Square for the original PlayStation. Variations of the Final Fantasy victory theme existed earlier in the series, but this version became especially familiar through FFVII's huge reach and lasting popularity. Online, people use it as instant shorthand for success, completion and earned rewards. It still appears in gaming edits, streams and meme videos because a few seconds of music can communicate a perfect "you won" feeling without any setup.
