D.Va, real name Hana Song, debuted in Blizzard's hero shooter Overwatch in 2016 as a tank hero piloting a powered mech. Her Boosters ability lets the mech fly briefly in any direction, producing the short rushing flight sound heard in matches whenever she engages or retreats. As Overwatch clips spread across streaming and meme edits, that recognisable boost became a standalone soundboard clip, reused by fans outside gameplay to mark quick arrivals, escapes and bold dives in fan videos and gaming compilations.
