Luigi’s Mansion Is Coming To Nintendo Switch 2 In Time For Halloween

Nintendo is bringing another beloved GameCube title to the Switch Online + Expansion Pack service next week. The original Luigi’s Mansion is joining the classic games lineup on October 30.

Originally released alongside the GameCube in November 2001, Luigi’s Mansion sees Mario’s cowardly brother exploring a haunted mansion he won in a contest he never entered. With the help of Professor E. Gadd and his vacuum-like Poltergust 3000, Luigi must work his way through the mansion’s many rooms and capture all the ghosts that lurk within.

Luigi’s Mansion marks the sixth title to arrive on Switch Online’s GameCube collection. The library launched alongside the Switch 2 with three games–The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, F-Zero GX, and SoulCalibur II–while Super Mario Strikers and Chibi-Robo were added to the lineup in July and August, respectively.

Nintendo will be bringing more GameCube games to the service in the future. The company has already confirmed that additional classics like Super Mario Sunshine, Pokemon Colosseum, and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance are on the way, although it hasn’t yet announced when those games will be added.

The GameCube collection is one of a few Switch 2-exclusive perks available to Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers. Members can also download the Switch 2 upgrade packs for both The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for free.

An individual subscription for the base Nintendo Switch Online service runs for $20 a year, while the Expansion Pack plan costs $50 a year. Nintendo also offers an annual family plan for $80 that covers up to eight Nintendo Accounts across multiple systems.
