On 27th June, use your superpowered ghost-hunting tool, the Poltergust 5000, to suck up ghosts (and window curtains) and blow air to search every nook and cranny of the chilling-yet-charming mansions. The spooky fun adventure Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, originally released for the Nintendo 3DS™ system as ‘Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon’, arrives in visually enhanced HD on the Nintendo Switch system.
