A “visually enhanced” version of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon will be released for the Switch next year, Nintendo revealed at their Direct showcase.
“Can Luigi summon the courage to save Evershade Valley? Explore haunted mansions full of spooky specters and bone-chilling challenges next year,” Nintendo said.
The game was originally launched in 2013 for the Nintendo 3DS and was generally well received, earning itself a score of 86 on Metacritic.
Exactly what Nintendo means by “visually enhanced” is unclear, though. The trailer seems to show a fairly basic remaster of the game that ups the resolution but doesn’t do much else. Personally, I would have loved a more in-depth reconstruction to join all the areas up and so on, but I’m still just happy to see it come to the Switch.
Still, it’s going to feel weird going back to Luigi’s Mansion 2 after the absolutely fantastic Luigi’s Mansion 3.
