Portal: Companion Collection: Valve Hops On Nintendo! [VIDEO]

We did not expect to see Portal of all games show up on a Nintendo platform, let alone the Nintendo Switch!

 

It’s easy to figure out what the contents of Portal: Companion Collection is, but in case you need a little help, Nintendo’s website provides an overview: “Including Portal and Portal 2, the Companion Collection comes to Nintendo Switch with all the groundbreaking gameplay, dark humour, and exploration that earned the series hundreds of awards.

In Portal, you’ll use a highly experimental portal device to solve physical puzzles and challenges. Manoeuvre objects—and yourself—through space to puzzle your way through the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories. Return to Aperture Laboratories in Portal 2, where you’ll once again face off with the lethally inventive, power-mad A.I. named GLaDOS.

Meet an expanded cast of characters as you think your way through dangerous, never-before-seen areas of the laboratories and a wider variety of portal puzzles. Plus, Portal 2 also includes a co-operative game mode with local, split-screen, and online multiplayer so you and a friend can think with portals,” Nintendo and Valve wrote.

Portal launched in late 2007 as part of The Orange Box (which also included Half-Life 2: Episode 2 and Team Fortress 2), with the sequel dropping in April 2011. A third main Portal game never happened, but we all know Valve’s relationship with number three. In other words, Valve is unlikely ever to create that. The same thought applies to Half-Life and Portal.

While we already know the cake is a lie (if you have ever played Portal, you already know what we are talking about…), we have no clue the exact release date for Portal: Companion Collection is on the Nintendo Switch. Valve and Nintendo only said “2022”, which doesn’t help much.
