6. Nintendo Luigi's Mansion 2 HD
Embark on a spooky adventure with the rabbit-footed hero Luigi in Luigi's Mansion 2 HD for Nintendo Switch. In this adventure with revamped graphics, you will visit the eerie locations of the spooky Night Shadow Valley, which until recently was dominated by the peculiar Dark Moon. According to investigations by ghost researcher Professor I. Gidd, the moon caused the valley's spirits to behave peacefully... until one night the Dark Moon mysteriously broke into several pieces. As a result, the valley is teeming with howling, scurrying, mischievous spirits. Can Luigi find the lost pieces of the Dark Moon and bring peace back to the valley? Fortunately, Professor I. Gidd has equipped Luigi perfectly for the job of ghost hunter. For example, there is the strobe lightning, which Luigi can use to blind enemies, and the reliable fright path 09/15, which not only absorbs ghosts and objects, but can also affect objects in the surroundings in many different ways. Luigi's paranormal adventures take him to all kinds of places: an old botanical research laboratory, a dilapidated watch factory and a mine covered in ice and snow, to name but a few. Up to four players can team up online or in wireless local multiplayer mode and venture into the tower of confusion. Here you will find ghosts and challenges that do not appear in the main game.
