Having already gotten to go hands-on with one of the variously themed floors of Luigi’s Mansion 3’s gargantuan hotel setting at E3 2019, I was excited to try out another at PAX West 2019. This time around, I got to do it with a co-op buddy (IGN’s Brian Malkiewicz dutifully took on the role of Nintendo icon Gooigi), and while there’s definitely plenty of fun and charm to be had when exploring with a friend, it also quite clearly makes puzzle solving speedier — when we weren’t getting in each other’s way.
We played through a new level of the hotel; after seeing the more medieval-themed Luigi's Mansion 3 area at E3, this time around I played through an overgrown forest area, with a mischievous ghost causing the plant life to become hostile to poor Luigi. Thick branches overran staircases and columns, bunches of leaves hid buried treasure, and several plants tried to kill me with fruit. Showing off the variety that Luigi's Mansion 3 has in store, I love knowing not to expect from one area of the game to the next what I'll be encountering. And thankfully, things were a bit easier to survive with a co-op partner.
