Luigi's first starring role on the Switch came with Luigi’s Mansion 3, the third installment in his solo ghostbusting series. In this game, Luigi, alongside his green gooey clone, collaborates with Professor E. Gadd to battle ghosts and rescue his friends from King Boo's haunted hotel.
Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD is a revamped version of the 2013 Nintendo 3DS game Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. Here, Luigi explores the haunted mansions of Evershade Valley to capture King Boo and save his brother once more.
While not solely a 'Luigi game,' Mario & Luigi: Brothership places both brothers on equal footing. This latest entry in the Mario & Luigi series challenges players to navigate puzzles and platforming challenges to restore the kingdom of Concordia.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe marked the first Switch game featuring Luigi as a playable character. He's a middleweight racer with a balanced stat distribution, slightly favoring speed and handling. His iconic appearance in an ad for the original Wii U version of Mario Kart 8 inspired the Luigi Death Stare meme.
Luigi joined forces with Rabbid Luigi in the Nintendo-Ubisoft collaboration Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. This tactical RPG lets players recruit both Luigi and his Rabbid counterpart as party members.
In Mario Tennis Aces, Luigi served as one of 16 playable characters at launch. Known for his balanced stats, Luigi's specialty shot, Pipe Cannon, allows him to soar into the air for a powerful spike.
Super Mario Party introduced Luigi as one of 20 playable characters on the Switch. A staple in every Mario Party game, this title became Nintendo's ninth best-selling game on the platform, according to the company.
As an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Luigi has appeared in all five Smash games. According to LumiRank’s 2025 tier list, he's an A+-tier fighter and ranks 18th overall among 93 ranked Smash players.
Luigi is a playable character in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, an enhanced version of the Wii U title that includes the New Super Luigi U expansion. Here, Luigi stars with his higher jump and a unique 100-second timer per level.
In Super Mario Maker 2, Luigi joins Mario, Toad, and Toadette as one of four playable characters. This level-building platformer lets players craft their own Mario levels using assets from various Mario titles.
In Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, players can choose Luigi, who controls similarly to Mario but with a higher jump and less traction, making him slightly more 'floaty' and 'slippery'.
Luigi tees off in Mario Golf: Super Rush, one of 22 playable characters. With decent control and excellent speed, he's ideal for the new Speed Golf mode. His special shot, Ice Flower Freeze, creates a hazardous icy area upon impact.
Luigi returns in Mario Party Superstars, a collection of classic minigames and boards. Unlike its predecessor, Superstars is not an original game but a nostalgic compilation.
In Mario Strikers: Battle League Football, Luigi showcases his skills as one of 16 playable characters, excelling in technique for dribbling, curving shots, and accurate shooting.
Luigi and Rabbid Luigi return in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, where Luigi is categorized as a Sneak Attacker with his ranged weaponry and lower health.
In the latest 2D Mario platformer, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Luigi serves as a playable character with the same gameplay mechanics as Mario, differing only in appearance.
Luigi is back in Super Mario Party Jamboree, the largest and arguably best game in the series. As part of the new Buddy mechanic, he can alter dice rolls to potentially give players a score of 10.
