The PlayStation 5 was released by Sony in November 2020 as the successor to the PlayStation 4, and its startup sound quickly became part of the console identity online. Clips of unboxings, first boot ups and setup tours shared on YouTube and social media helped the short chime spread beyond owners of the hardware. Gamers began reusing it in edits and streams as an instant shorthand for starting a game. It remains popular because it is brief, recognisable and tied to a major console launch many players remember.

The PlayStation 5 startup sound effect is the short boot up chime from Sony's PS5 console, used in gaming videos, memes and console reveal edits.
This is the brief electronic chime heard when a PlayStation 5 console powers on, a clean rising tone that lasts just under three seconds. It has a futuristic, polished feel, with a soft swell that resolves into a bright finish rather than a harsh beep. Viewers instantly recognise it as the start of a gaming session, which makes it effective as a quick audio cue. Placed before gameplay or a reveal, it creates anticipation and signals something new is loading, without needing any dialogue or music to explain what is happening next.
