Similarly to New Super Luigi U, Pixel Luigis are hidden in most levels of Super Mario 3D World and its campaign in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury to celebrate the Year of Luigi, which the original game was released in. The more challenging versions of earlier levels in World Mushroom and World Flower contain Pixel Luigis in the same locations across both counterparts; as such, only Luigis unique to those levels are listed.
While there are no Pixel Luigis specific to the Bowser's Fury campaign of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, methods of encountering them across both campaigns are noted in their respective sections.
