Game Features
What's new in Portal 2?
- Enter the future: the game takes place a few hundred years after the original. In the modified Portal ending, Chell is dragged off by an unseen force and blacks out. In the sequel, she wakes up from a stasis sleep to find the Aperture Laboratories decrepit and overgrown with jungle. GLaDOS is still alive, though :)
- New gameplay elements: the puzzles in Portal 2 are more varied and complex than in the first game. Besides the good old Portal gun, you also have to use Repulsion and Propulsion Gel, Excursion Funnels (aka tractor beams), air currents from the Pneumatic Diversity Vents, Aerial Faith Plates, and Thermal Discouragement Beams (laser redirection) to progress through the levels.
- Multiplayer co-op: take control of one of the two cute and dorky robots (ATLAS and P-body) and work together to solve the most complex tests Aperture Science Enrichment Center has to offer. Click here to watch the official co-op trailer.
- More Portal goodness: according to Valve, the game is at least twice as long as the first one. That's not including the separate co-op campaign which has its own custom levels and story.
