Nintendo has confirmed multiplayer features in Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, local and online included, with the debut Nintendo 3DS trailer and spooky new screenshots.
The features were outlined in the Japanese magazine Famitsu earlier with this week, but now Nintendo have made it official – The feature is called Hunter Mode, where different coloured Luigi team up together in a bid to hunt down ghosts in a large tower known as the ScareScraper before the clock runs out.
There’ll be a number of floors depending on the difficulty – from 10 to as high as 25 – together with challenging boss battles at the very top. Up to four ghost hunters can join in the action either locally or over the internet and revive fallen teammates to keep the action flowing. Once levels have been conquered, players can grab hold of bonuses depending on their current performance, so better get those ghosts and ghouls as quick as possible! Finally for those who want to brave it alone, the entire Hunter mode can be taken on solo.
To see how it all works, watch the debut trailer for the Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon multiplayer.
