Luigi appeared in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. When Bowser abducted Peach's Castle, Luigi and the [[Toad Brigade]] were apparently inside. However, they all escaped and got lost in space. Luigi was kidnapped by the monster [[Bouldergeist]]{{refneeded}} and imprisoned in the Ghostly Galaxy. Mario must come and rescue him, after which he will help Mario in a handful of missions, including collecting stars (although, he gets lost every time and must be rescued). After collecting three stars, Luigi left the rest up to Mario.

After the player collected all 120 power stars and defeated Bowser again, Luigi was an optional player. There were several differences when playing with Luigi: his run was faster, but took more time to build up speed; it was harder for him to stop running; he could jump higher; and the air meter dropped faster while [[spinning]] underwater. Additionally, [[Cosmic Mario|Cosmic Luigi]] was faster and more intelligent than [[Cosmic Mario]] while racing.

In Luigi's playthrough of the game, Mario would be absent, resulting in two Luigis.
Notably, the playable Luigi was a little shorter and had a different head shape than the NPC Luigi. His clothes were also slightly darker. The NPC Luigi referred to the playable Luigi as "me" as he called Mario "bro." Also, Rosalina called the NPC Luigi his "twin".
