This allows players to do things like walk through walls and channel bullets away from themselves. Players will contend with obstacles like turrets alongside their conflict with Portal's antagonist GLaDOS as they work towards freedom. Portal 2 added both couch co-op and online play to the game, allowing two players to attempt escape together.
