North America: Luigi’s Mansion Launches October 12 For 3DS

Nintendo of America has announced Luigi’s Mansion will be making its way to Nintendo 3DS on October 12, 2018 for USD39.99.

This follows Nintendo of Europe’s announcement of the October 19 release date for Europe and Australia.

Here’s more details about the game:

This October, everyone’s favorite video game scaredy-cat Luigi is returning to a haunted mansion he hasn’t visited since 2001. In the Luigi’s Mansion game, a Nintendo 3DS remake of the spooky Nintendo GameCube game, Luigi must enter a sprawling mansion equipped with nothing but his trusty flashlight and Poltergust 3000, a vacuum-like contraption used to capture ghosts, find treasure and solve puzzles.

This is the first time the Nintendo GameCube classic can be played on the go. This updated version of the game includes the same classic adventure, but with some added features perfect for Nintendo’s popular portable systems. Using the bottom touch screen on the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, players can view the mansion map.

In the new Gallery Battle Mode, exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version of the game, Luigi will have the ability to re-challenge boss ghosts that were defeated in the game.

Luigi’s Mansion will launch for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems at a suggested retail price of $39.99.
