Explosion Sound Effects Collection: Explosion Sound Vol. 2 Sound Demo

This piece showcases a wide variety of sound effects, from popping explosive sounds and thunder-like reverberations to the roaring audio of raging fires.
Since it’s a demo, it can’t be used directly as sound effects in games and the like, but all of the sounds are high quality, so it should serve as a helpful reference when deciding which ones to purchase.

You could say it’s a piece that can really shine depending on the user’s technique.

This is a sound effect distributed as free material.
The booming explosion has a sense of presence and will strongly emphasize the moment of the blast.
However, there are no post-explosion sound effects and the sound cuts off abruptly, so it may feel unnatural depending on the scene in which it’s used.

This is an explosion sound effect in a style often used in retro games.
In terms of realism, it doesn’t compare to modern, realism-oriented explosion sound effects, but the distinctive soft impression that comes from its cheapness gives it a very appealing character.
