Multiplayer Mode Makes an Appearance in Luigis Mansion Dark Moon
Jan. 24, in the year of our Lord 2013 -- Nintendo has revealed
new information about Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon launching
exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems on March 24.
Luigi stumbles through multiple mansions to capture ghosts and
solve puzzles armed with his trusty ghost-catching vacuum
cleaner, the Poltergust 5000, and in a series first, the game
will feature local and online multiplayer modes, as well as
Download Play capabilities.
Join up with up to four players and journey into the
ScareScraper, which is jam-packed with paranormal creatures.
Additional systems and games may be required for multiplayer
modes and are sold separately. In Hunter Mode, each player
controls a different color Luigi and is challenged to hunt down
ghosts and use effective teamwork to clear each floor of the
tower before the clock strikes zero. Bonuses and upgrades can be
earned depending on how well the team performs. There are also
boss battles at the top of each tower. Players can choose the
number of floors in this mode ranging from five, 10 or 25. They
can adjust the difficulty to cater to both new and veteran
gamers. Fallen players can even be revived by their teammates to
keep the adventure going.
When Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon launches on March 24, shoppers
can purchase the packaged game as usual at retail locations
nationwide. Or they can simply purchase and download the game on
their own from the Nintendo eShop using a wireless broadband
connection. Regardless of their purchasing method, the game
sells for a suggested retail price of $39.99.
