List of Luigi's Mansion 3 glitches

This is a list of glitches in Luigi's Mansion 3.

Glitches

NOTE: All names are conjectural unless otherwise specified.

Circling E. Gadd Glitch

On rare occasions, after freeing him with the Dark-Light Device, E. Gadd will immediately begin to circle around a specific spot. While in this state, he will not follow the player while in the room. The glitch will end either if the player waits for a little while or leaves the room. The cause of the glitch is still unknown.

Fitness Room Glitch

In the room with two Hammers (one with punching gloves and the other with weights), the player can sneak past them. Once the player comes through the door, they must walk down and to the left until they come to the doorway. If the Hammers are triggered at this point, the doors will all be barricaded and the player will be unable to continue.

Active Toad Painting After Boss

In the Great Stage, it is possible for the Toad painting to reactivate long after the boss has been defeated, with the Toad appearing in the picture despite also being safe in E Gadd's lab. If this happens, trying to free the Toad with the Dark-Light Device will just cause it to vanish from the picture.

Boo Softlock

If the music is not playing, making the Boo appear by examining its hiding spot will sometimes cause the found jingle to play, but the actual Boo will not appear, nor will its quote play beforehand. This leaves the game softlocked, since Luigi and Gooigi can only move when the Boo intro scene has finished playing, and they cannot exit the room without moving. They can enter E Gadd's Lab in this state, however.

E. Gadd T-Pose

E. Gadd T-posing

Sometimes when calling the E. Gadd Hotline, E. Gadd will be in a T-pose for a frame.

No Boo Music

On certain occasions, the music usually played when a Boo is present in a room does not play. This makes it difficult to track down said Boo without buying a radar from E Gadd.

Ongoing Bomb Ticking

In the Boolossus battle in the ScareScraper, when the bombs are being launched back into Boolossus's mouth and a bomb is about to explode, the bomb will make an ongoing ticking sound. The bomb cannot be interacted with or picked up while the glitch is in effect. The bomb will then explode and end the glitch upon the next round of bombs.

Punching Bag Sound Overlap

On the 13th Floor, Fitness Center, in the Weight Room, there is a punching bag that sometimes plays its hit sound multiple times at once when struck with a boxing glove creating a jarring sound.

Twisted Suites Crash

Warning! Performing this action may corrupt your game's save file.

It is possible to cause the game to crash to the home menu if Luigi shoots a fish into the rabbit cage in the Trainer's Room in Twisted Suites.
