Portal 2 delayed to 2011

Valve “in partnership” with fictional game company Aperture Science has announced today that Portal 2 will receive a slight bump from its original release date. The title is now scheduled to ship in 2011.

Okay. Not so slight.

According to Valve, “the game will be even better” thanks to the delay. They assure us that “all life on earth won’t instantaneously stop as every molecule in your body explodes at the speed of light” because of the slightly later than expected release date.

Portal 2 will be at E3 in Los Angeles next week. Expect to hear all about it from us as we’ve already got an appointment down to check it out.
