| “ | The first of our two cities, Mannhattan, takes our mercs all the way from the sun-blasted gravel pits of the Badlands to the urban sprawl of the East Coast, where they'll have to defend the manufacturing arm of Saxton Hale's boutique Mhankö line. Mannhattan's robot hordes can advance their own spawn points and introduce new bombs into the map for the first time, making for a unique new MvM experience.

Mannhattan is a map, released in the Two Cities Update. It sees players in a metropolis area resembling Manhattan, defending the manufacturing arm of Mann Co's "Mhankö" line.
Unique to this map are its two gates, labelled Gate A and Gate B. Roughly half of the robots that spawn are "gatebots", identified by glowing yellow lights on their heads, which ignore the bomb and instead try to open the gates much like capturing control points. If a gate is captured, all bombs currently in play will be sent back to spawn, and all non-giant robots will be stunned for approximately twenty seconds. When this time expires, the robots will resume their assault and gain guaranteed critical hits for a short period of time. Note that unlike control points, the robots' capture progress cannot be blocked by the player alone, as they must destroy every robot in the capture zone to prevent it.
The capturing of a gate has three effects that will make the defenders' job more difficult: the robots' spawn will move up to the newly captured gate, captured gates cannot be closed or recaptured for the rest of the wave, and an additional bomb will be brought into play. This will force the defenders to split their forces accordingly, as players may have to defend against two or three bombs at once. In the event both gates are captured, the gatebots' lights will turn off, and they will join the rest of the horde in carrying the bombs.
