It is the second game in the ''[[Luigi's Mansion (series)|Luigi's Mansion]]'' series after ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' to be released for the 3DS.

Like the original game, the remake received mostly positive reviews. Praise was aimed towards the new features, graphics, and the use of the touch screen as well the use of 3D, which was an idea for the original version, but scrapped due to the high cost. However, the multiplayer received mixed impressions, and the lack of improvement to the original game's graphics in certain locations, such as the [[Mirror Room]], was criticized. While the controls were easy to handle, the motion controls received some criticism, being described by IGN as "a purge."

The ring tone that plays during future E. Gadd's call is that of the [[Dual Scream]], and [[Gloomy Manor]] can be seen on the monitor behind him. The redesigned Gallery features what looks like a [[Pixelator]] screen on the south wall, which Luigi ponders the purpose of if scanned with the Game Boy Horror.
*''[[Super Mario Maker]]'': A [[Boo]]'s sprite from the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' style appears in the bottom screen of the game, being used as an icon in the Boo counter on the Game Boy Horror's screen.
