Now Playing: Portal: Companion Collection for Nintendo Switch — Official Trailer
Portal and Portal 2 were announced for Switch back in February. The Switch version will include local, online, and split-screen cooperative multiplayer. The Portal Companion Collection costs $20 on Switch.
The Portal games are first-person puzzlers known as much for their humor--and quippy AI antagonist GLaDOS--as for their challenging, inventive puzzles. In the first Portal, you play as Chell, a woman who wakes up in the strange Aperture Science portal testing facility and who is run through a series of tests by GLaDOS, which eventually become more and more unnervingly dangerous. The first Portal was relatively compact, coming as a part of Valve's Orange Box release for Half-Life 2.
Portal 2, on the other hand, expands on everything in the original, making for a much longer and more in-depth experience. It also expands on all the story related to the game, giving you a lot more information about GLaDOS, Aperture Science, and its founder, Cave Johnson.
