Arcade explosion sounds for games, animation, and video edits

Classic 8-bit blast

A crunchy burst of noise that steps down as it fades, the all-purpose explosion for any retro shooter or platformer.

Small enemy pop

A bright, short pop with a flick of noise, for clearing waves of small enemies without tiring the ear.

Boss blast chain

Blast after blast rolling into a deep final boom, the payoff when a boss finally breaks apart on screen.

Player ship hit

A falling tone that breaks into crackling noise, the sound of the last life lost or a ship going down.

Bomb drop blast

A descending whistle then a heavy crunch, for bombers, falling hazards and a well-aimed drop in any retro game.

Screen-clear bomb

A rising sweep into one huge crunchy burst, for a smart bomb, a super move or wiping every enemy at once.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

What is an arcade explosion sound effect?
This is the blast used in retro and pixel-art games, built from crunchy noise and simple square-wave tones. It is short, punchy and clearly a game sound, so the player hears what was destroyed without a realistic boom.
Where can I get arcade explosion sounds for a video?
Build them from a prompt on Morphic. Typing the size and texture of the blast is quicker than scrolling a stock library of chiptune packs, and every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it, so you can start from one and adjust it.
How do I make a custom arcade explosion sound effect?
Describe what explodes, how big it is and the retro texture you want, then generate it. A prompt like "a retro arcade boss explosion, a rapid chain of crunchy 8-bit blasts" gives Morphic enough to work with.
What is the difference between an arcade explosion and a realistic explosion?
An arcade explosion is built from a few simple tones and crunchy noise, so it reads as a game sound straight away. A realistic explosion has a deep blast, a pressure wave and falling debris. Use the arcade kind for pixel art and retro styles.
Can I use these arcade explosion sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because each sound is generated for you, you also avoid the clip turning up in someone else's video.
Why does my arcade explosion sound not sit right in the edit?
Usually the blast is too long for how fast enemies fall on screen. Use the short pop for small enemies and save the long chain for a boss, so the size of the sound matches the size of what breaks apart.
