The sound comes from Sony's PlayStation 5 console, first released in 2020, where it plays as the system startup cue when the machine is switched on. As the console spread worldwide, the chime became familiar through unboxing videos, livestreams and setup clips, where creators reused it to signal a new gaming session. It is often used alongside other gaming notification sounds such as the GTA V notification in edits and streams. Its short length and clean electronic tone keep it useful for intros, transitions and reaction videos years after launch.

The PlayStation 5 bootup sound, a soft chime sequence that plays when the console powers on. Gamers use it for intros, unboxings and reaction videos.
This is the short audio cue that plays when a PlayStation 5 starts up, a clean electronic sequence that begins quietly and builds into a bright, shimmering finish. It mixes soft synthesized chimes with a gentle rising swell, giving it a modern, polished feel that is instantly familiar to anyone who owns the console. The sound lasts only a few seconds, but it carries a sense of anticipation, as if something is about to begin. In videos it works as a quick signal for gaming, a new setup, or a moment of excitement, and listeners often recognise it before any image appears.
