The Roblox oof is a sound effect that plays when a player dies or resets in the online video game platform Roblox. It originated from the 2000 video game Messiah and was later adopted by Roblox as the platform's default death sound. The sound would later become an Internet meme. Video game composer Tommy Tallarico had claimed ownership of the copyright to the sound in 2019 and stated that its use was copyright infringement, though a late 2020 agreement was reached where the sound became a paid asset. Tallarico also claimed that he had personally created the sound, despite Messiah's credits also crediting Joey Kuras, a sound designer then employed by Tallarico, with designing the game's sounds alongside him, and the sound effect's metadata crediting Kuras with its creation. In July 2022, Roblox announced on Twitter that the "oof" sound had been removed from the platform, replacing it with a new default death audio. In November 2022, British video essayist Hbomberguy published an exposé that disputed Tallarico's claim that he had created the sound effect. In July 2025, Roblox announced that it would bring back the "oof" sound in a video posted on Twitter, now known as X, nearly three years after its removal and replacement.
