Water Tower
The Water Tower is an available Map in MultiVersus. It was revealed through the Full Launch key art released on March 11th, 2024, and was released alongside Season 2 on July 23, 2024. It has one variation and one 1v1 form.
A "Cyber" version of the the Locked Door variation was released as an early preview as part of the Techno Terror Rift in Season 1.
Origin
This Map is based on the Warner Bros. Studios lot, the main setting of the original Animaniacs television show and its reboot, which itself is based on the real world Warner Bros. studio in Burbank. The iconic Warner Bros. water tower, which became a symbol for the company (and the main home for the Warner siblings in the show), appears prominently on it. 6 different hot air balloons (out of which three are based on the Warner siblings, two are based on Pinky & The Brain, and the last one is simply a generic green balloon) appear whenever a Ringout occurs. The Acme Labs building from the "Pinky and the Brain" segments of the show can be seen in the background (using its new design from the Animaniacs reboot), alongside the magnet which appears in the show's intro and the Mystery Machine from Scooby-Doo parked in its front. In the Lot itself, a filming set which resembles the Tree Fort Map and the Hollywood Hills which spells out "MultiVersus" can be seen in it, alongside many other references to both the original and the rebooted Animaniacs shows, such as the rocket seen in the 16th episode of the series' reboot protruding from the roof of one of the studio buildings, a cafe titled "Animaniacs Cafe", two giant stone statues resembling Flavio and Marita Hippo, and a small tender engine operated by Yakko Warner himself. The Batmobile can also sometimes be seen giving chase to a random car. The Warners' TV and Yakko's world map can be seen inside the Water Tower whenever its door opens, alongside a random Fighter taunting the players. The Fighters that can appear inside the tower are Arya Stark, Banana Guard, Bugs Bunny, Finn the Human, Harley Quinn, Jason Voorhees, Steven Universe, Stripe, and Superman.
Multiple posters for fake "Warner Bros. produced" movies can be seen plastered on the studio buidlings' walls:
- Rein of Terror - featuring Reindog
- League of Love - featuring Aphrodite's Blessing Wonder Woman and Lovestruck Superman
- El Paso del Gato - featuring Texas Tom & Jerry and No One Arya Stark
- Harley Quinn's Puddin - featuring Harley Quinn
- Night of the Bat - featuring Batman and Vampire Tom & Jerry
- Journey to the Mystery Valley - featuring Shaggy, Velma, and Iron Giant (Classic)
Layout
Water Tower
The map consist of a large body with two small platforms situated on both sides, and a central platform situated in the middle of the map.
Hazards
The door of the Water Tower can be opened after receiving enough damage, knocking Fighters away. The door can be climbed and also acts as a platform. Balloons will spawn on the left side of the map whenever a Ringout occurs. These balloons act as platforms with walls and can be popped. The balloons will descend whenever a Fighter sits or hangs on it.
Water Tower (1v1)
The 1v1 form of the Water Tower map.
Hazards
Same as above.
Water Tower (Locked Door)
Same as the default variation, but without the two small platforms.
Hazards
As its title suggests, the water tower's door can't be opened on this variation. The balloons will still appear if Hazards are turned on.
Theme Songs
