Current Event, or Peach's Castle-, is the fifth course of Peach's Castle in New Super Luigi U. It is unlocked from completing Hot Cogs or Firefall Rising and its own completion unlocks The Final Battle. The course's name is a portmanteau of "electric current," relating to Bowser Stunners' behavior, and the phrase "current event," another term for news.

Layout

The level begins on a platform in the castle, with stairs going to a tilt lift. The lava begins rising, and a few Bowser Stunners are found. A Pipe Cannon follows, which leads to a platform above where another tilt lift is located. Parabombs begin falling from above throughout the area, and two connected Bowser Stunners are found just before the first Warp Door. A Hidden Block containing a 1-Up Mushroom is found to the right of the door. Another Pipe Cannon is found, which leads to a section of the ground with ? Blocks and a Bob-omb. A third tilt lift is found, leading through another section of Bowser Stunners and Parabombs. Another Warp Door is found, with another Hidden Block containing a 1-Up Mushroom to the right of it. The Goal Pole is then found.
