Can You Jump in Luigi's Mansion 2 HD?

You Cannot Jump in Regular Gameplay

Luigi
For this game, it is not possible for Luigi to jump as all of his controls relate to the Poltergust 5000. Luigi may occasionally jump out of fear, but this isn't a controllable action.

Control Schemes Explained

Luigi Can Jump While Pulling Objects and Ghosts

If you press B while pulling an object or vacuuming a ghost, Luigi will be able to jump. However, this is more of a dodge action that allows Luigi to avoid ghost attacks while vacuuming. It does not allow him to jump over any obstacles.

How to Catch Ghosts

Jumping Between Beams or Tightropes is Possible

It is possible for Luigi to jump between narrow beams in certain segments of the game. This is the only way Luigi can intentionally jump in-game.

How to Jump Between Beams or Tightropes

Tilt the R Stick to Where You Want to Jump

Luigi

If you tilt the right control stick towards a parallel beam while in the tightrope mode, Luigi should automatically jump.
