✅ Verified for Java 26.2 · Bedrock 26.32 — checked June 2026Plays the Ender Dragon's growl/roar sound to the targeted players for dramatic effect. Java uses sounds.json event IDs (entity.ender_dragon.growl) and requires a sound category such as master, music, or hostile before the targets. Bedrock uses its own sound-definition names (mob.enderdragon.growl) and does not take a category argument.
