Nintendo games are notorious for rarely going on sale, making it difficult for gamers to get a good bargain on the developer's titles. However, Switch fans looking for a spooky fun time this Halloween will be glad to know that won't be the case with Luigi's Mansion 3.
Fans of the Luigi's Mansion series should know that it will be possible to get a significant discount on the latest entry to the franchise from day one of its release. In fact, the deal is so good that some players may want to cancel their pre-orders and buy it on release day instead, providing that they didn't pre-order the game from Walmart.
Walmart will be selling Luigi's Mansion 3 at a $10 discount from the moment of its launch, on Thursday, October 31st. The game - like most Nintendo games for the Switch - normally retails for $59.99, but Walmart will be offering it for $49.94. Unfortunately, the sale is unlikely to extend to Walmart's website, so gamers will have to actually go to the store in order to get in on this discount. Walmart has recently been releasing new titles at this price, and Luigi's Mansion 3 is apparently no different. It offers a nice opportunity for gamers who would rather pick it up at launch rather than wait for potential discounts during Black Friday and the holiday shopping season.
This deal is particularly significant because Luigi's Mansion 3 looks to be the longest entry in the series to date. It's estimated to take approximately 18 hours to finish the main story, which more than doubles the length of the first entry of the series. That also doesn't include the party mode and paid DLC Luigi's Mansion 3 will receive, which should provide more gameplay and replayability. This means gamers will get even more bang for their buck if they pick it up at Walmart.
Luigi's Mansion 3 has received positive reviews thus far from the majority of game news outlets. It's received general praise for its puzzles, co-op play, and spooky atmosphere. The game should make for a fun Halloween adventure for gamers, whether they look to embark on a solo journey or want to incorporate the game into their party plans for the evening.
Luigi's Mansion 3 releases exclusively for the Nintendo Switch on October 31st.
