Portal 2 is a first-person puzzle-platform video game developed and published by Valve Corporation. It is the sequel to Portal and was released on April 18, 2011 for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. The retail versions of the game are distributed by Electronic Arts, while digital distribution of the Windows and OS X versions is handled by Valve's content delivery service Steam. Portal 2 was announced on March 5, 2010, following a week-long alternate reality game based on new patches to the original game.
The sequel's release on Steam was preceded by a second multi-week alternate reality game, the Potato Sack, involving 13 independently-developed titles which culminated in a distributed computing spoof to release Portal 2 several hours early.

Story
Portal 2 is set many years after the end of Portal. Chell is still in Aperture and she still wishes to escape. GLaDOS rises from the dead while new characters are introduced such as the Personality Sphere Wheatley and Aperture's founder Cave Johnson.
Gameplay
The player controls Chell from a first-person perspective while running and jumping to complete various puzzles. She is able to withstand large drops, but can be killed by falling in the toxic water of the facility, crushed to death, burnt to death, or shot to death by turrets.
Cooperative Testing
The cooperative story takes place chronologically after the single-player campaign and has some ties it, although players are not required to play them in that order. Players control ATLAS or P-Body as they navigate five sets of test chambers together, each with a fully functioning portal gun.
