Nintendo Adds Luigi's Mansion Game to Nintendo Classics Library

Nintendo announced on Tuesday the 2001 Luigi Mansion game will be available for "Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack" members in the Nintendo GameCube – Nintendo Classics collection beginning on October 30. The game will be available for the Nintendo Switch 2.

Nintendo describes the game:

Luigi wins a stately mansion, but he's in for a ghastly surprise when he creeps through its front door and learns that his magnificent manor is teeming with ghosts. And worse yet, Mario is nowhere to be found!

Enter Luigi's Mansion, where a gallery of ghouls haunt the halls, secrets wait to be unearthed, and Luigi is … not the most courageous character around. Luckily, Professor E. Gadd is on the scene, and he has the perfect tools for the occasion! Play as Luigi, capture ghosts with the Poltergust 3000, track his items and whereabouts with the Game Boy™ Horror device, and help save Mario from a frightening fate in this action-adventure game originally released for the Nintendo GameCube system in 2001.

All three games in the Luigi's Mansion franchise are now available to play on the Nintendo Switch 2.

Luigi's Mansion originally launched for the GameCube in 2001. The game inspired two sequels, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon for the Nintendo 3DS in 2013, and Luigi's Mansion 3 for the Switch in 2019.
