Portal is a first-person puzzle video game series developed by Valve.
The series is set in the universe of Half-Life, and primarily take place in the Aperture Science Enrichment Centre. 2 main games have been created in the series, with Portal being released in 2007 and Portal 2 being released in 2011. Several other entries into the universe have also been created, including Portal with RTX, released as recently as 2022.
Crossovers
Portal was one of the multiple franchises to be represented alongside the Doctor Who universe in the mass-crossover toys-to-life video game, LEGO Dimensions. The Portal content was added to the game at launch, with a level pack being released on 27 September 2015.
This addition to the game allowed players to control the franchise's one playable character - Chell - and have her play through the A Dalektable Adventure and Dalek Extermination of Earth levels, and explore the Who-themed adventure world, as well as operate K9 and interact with the Doctor's TARDIS.
In turn, this allowed the player to play as the Doctor or the Cyberman during the Aperture Science Enrichment Centre and Aperture Science stories, and explore the Portal adventure world, as well as using the related Sentry Turret vehicle and Companion Cube object in any world.
In promotional material for the game, the Portal content was lightly advertised in the trailers Endless Awesome and Doctor, Doctor Doctor. Notably, the Twelfth Doctor made appearances during these shorts, appearing directly alongside Chell in the former, and driving on the same street she walks down in the latter.
