Unlocked after completing World Star-2, Rosalina leaves the confines of the Comet Observatory to lend a helping hand to our heroes! Like Princess Peach, Rosalina is not the fastest runner; she takes some time to build up speed. However, her basic jumps are similar to Luigi’s, and unlike every other character you can play, Rosalina can attack her enemies without stomping on them or using a Power-Up. She has a special attack that’s all her own.
Rosalina’s spin attack is executed by tapping the Dash button. You can use this while moving, while jumping, or simply while standing still. Rosalina’s spin attack can be used to take out most basic enemies in the air or on the ground, but it really shines during difficult platforming sections. While her slow speed might make jumps more difficult, the spin attack acts as a sort of double jump that can keep you in the air for a little bit longer, and can even be used to change direction in the event that you overshoot your intended landing spot. Much like Peach, Rosalina is excellent for players who want to explore levels more thoroughly.
