|''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]'' is the third main entry in the series, released for the Nintendo Switch on October 31, 2019 (the release coinciding with {{wp|Halloween}}). In this installment, Luigi, Mario, [[Princess Peach]], and various [[Toad (species)|Toads]] are invited to a hotel called [[the Last Resort]]. Soon after they arrive, everyone but Luigi goes missing, having been turned into paintings by King Boo. To save them, Luigi has to navigate the many floors of the hotel with the help of E. Gadd, using a new Poltergust called the [[Poltergust G-00]]. The game also features 2-player co-op through [[Gooigi]], who is given a much more prominent role in the story compared to his first appearance in the ''Luigi's Mansion'' remake.

|Based off of ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'', ''[[Luigi's Mansion Arcade]]'' was released in 2015, continuing a modern trend of arcade games returning to the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]]. This game follows traditional, arcade-styled shooters in the sense that the user does not control where to go, as they are simply taken from location to location in order to defeat the ghosts. The controller for the game is based off the Poltergust 5000. The main objectives are to suck up the ghosts--similar to previous installments in the series--and to rack up a high score.
