Portal Board Game Coming Later This Year

"Portal: Uncooperative Cake Acquisition Game" is the working title for Valve's upcoming Portal board game that's set to release later this year.

Valve is working with the popular tabletop company Cryptozoic Entertainment to finalize and publish the board game. Polygon reported that though other companies enlist Cryptozoic's help to develop their board game, Valve has been working on the Portal board game's development internally since 2012 and approached Cryptozoic in 2013.

In "Portal: Uncooperative Cake Acquisition Game," two to four players use strategy to compete against each other and test the most desirable test chambers on a tiled board, Valve's Jeep Barnett told Polygon.

According to Cryptozoic, "Portal: Uncooperative Cake Acquisition Game" playing pieces will feature test subjects, a companion cube, sentry turrets, cake, and is estimated to cost $50 USD. The Portal board game is set to release this year in late Q4.

"This was designed to stand on its own, not as a promotional tool," Barnett said. "While it may appeal more immediately to Portal fans, we tried to create something that was entertaining for everyone who tries it."

Cryptozoic Entertainment announced the Portal board game during the American International Toy Fair. There, we spotted a number of other interesting collectables that caught our attention.
