A Warp Gong in Donkey Kong Bananza
Appears in Donkey Kong Bananza (2025)
Effect Summons the Eelevator to transport Donkey Kong to another layer.

Warp Gongs are objects in Donkey Kong Bananza. One appears on every layer, usually somewhat nearby where Donkey Kong first arrives. Warp Gongs have a large, black, tetrahedronal base that points downward. Most of the base is within terrain, making it not visible unless the terrain is destroyed. The top side of the base is cyan, bright, and features a silver gong with musical inscriptions. Hitting this gong summons the Eelevator. After she is summoned, Donkey Kong leaps into her mouth and the layer selection menu appears. This menu allows the player to select any layer they have previously visited. When a layer is chosen, the Eelevator transports Donkey Kong to the Warp Gong of the chosen layer.

The Warp Gong is absent during Donkey Kong's first visit in the Lagoon Layer. The first time Donkey Kong rings the Warp Gong, the Eelevator will speak to Donkey Kong about the functions of Warp Gongs. During the first visit in the Groove Layer, the Eelevator does not appear after hitting the Warp Gong; according to a Fractone, this is because she is scared. Due to the Warp Gong in Ingot Isle Cave-In only being constructed by Grumpy Kong after defeating K. Rool, King of Rot in New Donk City, Ingot Isle Cave-In can only be revisited after that.

Like tuning forks, Donkey Kong is able to Teeleport to Warp Gongs.
