Portal 2 – originally slated for a February 2011 release – has been pushed back to April, Valve has announced.
Typically, Valve weren’t ones to make reading about a delay depressing, and in a press release entitled ‘Valve Announces Shortest Delay in Valve History’, said:
“This two month slip not only marks the shortest delay in Valve’s proud tradition of delays, it represents the approaching convergence of Valve Time and Real Time. Though this convergence spells doom for humanity, it will not affect the new Portal 2 release date.”
Good news all round then, especially for those anticipating the annual Valve Time delay and/or the end of the world. Portal 2 will now hit PC, Mac, PS3, and Xbox 360 on the 20th April in the US and Australia, and the 22nd in Europe.
