The Court

 is an available Map in MultiVersus. It was revealed and released on October 16th, 2022, originally only available in The Lab and in custom matches (via Create Online Lobby and Local Play). The Map was later added to the Online map rotation on December 6th, 2022, although it was quickly removed due to internal issues. On December 14th, 2022, the Map was added to the Silly Queue Map Rotation.

Origin
This Map is based on the basketball court from Space Jam: A New Legacy, in which LeBron James, alongside Bugs and the rest of the Looney Tunes, battle Al-G Rhythm's Goon Squad in order to save the Tunes and their world, LeBron's son, Dom, and the entire world from Al-G's evil clutches. The court itself is a recreation of Dom's basketball video game "Dom Ball".

The Map itself also includes multiple references to the Looney Tunes franchise (the tree with the "Duck Season" sign, the ACME factory, Foghorn's farm, Marvin's spaceship, a giant X from Planet X, etc.), as well as multiple cameos from other WB-owned franchises that were also present in the movie:


 * The Mystery Machine from Scooby-Doo.
 * The iconic Warner Bros. water tower (its design from the movie was specifically based on its Animaniacs counterpart, though it was altered in-game for unknown reasons).
 * The iconic hot air balloon owned by the classic Hanna-Barbera character Peter Potamus from the franchise of the same name.

The map consists mainly of a giant body players can't go underneath. There is a basketball hoop on each side of the map, with their backboards acting as a sort of pseudo-platforms/walls. The walls of this map are initially closed off, although they will break after gaining enough damage by throwing other Fighters at it (similarly to the walls of the King of Fighters Stadium stage from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate). The walls will eventually regenerate later.

Hazards
A basketball item will occasionally spawn in the middle of the map (after roughly 22 seconds have passed since the match started). The basketball itself acts as an item, and can be picked up by Fighters in order to be launched in either of the basketball hoops found in both sides of the map, in order to increase their score, with the basketball scores being broadcasted on the jumbotron that floats in the background of the map. There are also three power-ups that will spawn in the middle of the map, above the basketball's spawning point:


 * The blue power-up grants its user a speed boost.
 * The pink power-up grants its user a jump boost.
 * The brown power-up grants its user a strength boost.

The aforementioned jumbotron doesn't do much apart of counting down the initial ~22 seconds at the start of the match before the Basketball item appears, after which it will display the words "Dom Ball" and stay silent for the rest of the game. Fighters can't interact with the jumbotron.

Space Jam: Enter the Multiverse
The theme song used by this Map, Space Jam: Enter the Multiverse, is an original orchestral composition made to sound like Space Jam: A New Legacy 's Official Soundtrack.

Update History
{{Update History|update= Season 2.02 Patch


 * The Court
 * It’s time to BALL UP and BALL OUT! The Court is finally getting drafted from Custom Matches and will be joining the 2v2, 1v1, and Silly Queue map rotation. Time to turn those pickup games into officials!
 * The walls on The Court will now break after one wall bounce and will now respawn after a short time and push players inward. We are hoping this change will mitigate the effectiveness of camping by the blast box, and to help keep the ball in bounds!

Season 2 Patch

Space Jam Map Updates!
 * We're now keeping score of baskets made!
 * Scoring a basket now awards points based on the distance thrown. Try for some difficult 3 pointers!
 * Basket scores will now be broadcasted on the BIG screen!
 * Attacking a player holding a basketball item will cause that player to drop the item. Try fighting for control of The Court!
 * The Court's walls can no longer be attacked and will only break on a player wall bounce.
 * Space Jam is still only available in Custom matches or in the Lab.
 * Any feedback would be appreciated as we continue to hone in a version of the map for queue!

Season 1.05 Patch

Space Jam (Experimental)


 * Space Jam is available to play in Custom or the Lab.
 * We are still evaluating updates to the map to make it feel fair for inclusion in our 2v2 and 1v1 queues. Feedback welcome!

Season 1.04 Patch

New Map

 * A new map will be appearing very soon that can only be played in custom games. It's new and experimental, so we would love for players to try it out and give us feedback on how to improve! More details soon!

Trivia

 * Marvin's Spaceship and the Mystery Machine, both elements that cameo on this map, were first teased in the cinematic "You're With Me!" trailer, though they were shown appearing on Trophy's E.D.G.E. rather than this map.
 * Marvin's Spaceship will always be seen landing near the Map when a match begins and taking off into space when the match ends.
 * This Map was originally known as Space Jam Court in Season 1.
 * The official promo for The Court and the Season 2 Patch Notes also refer to it as simply Space Jam.
