E3 2012: Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon dated and detailed

Nintendo have today announced and confirmed details regarding the previously announced Luigi’s Mansion 2 for the Nintendo 3DS. Now titled Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, the game will take place across multiple mansions with each mansion offering different kinds of missions and different types of ghosts for Luigi to defeat.

Nintendo have also promised that the game will be much more atmospheric and even more “creepier” thanks to the console’s unique 3D capabilities. The horror nut inside of me thinks this won’t be the case entirely, but it’s nice to want things.

While we haven’t got an official launch date for Australia, Nintendo did confirm that the game will be hitting shelves just in time for Christmas in America. Hopefully that means we shouldn’t have to wait for much longer after that (and hopefully around the same time.)
