GEICO Portal Reveals Disappointing News

The GEICO Gecko entered Aperture Labs in a new Portal crossover commercial. Because GEICO Portal is real now (for some reason), fans began to speculate: does this mean new Portal? Is Valve hinting at something related to Portal in the future? We have an answer.

GEICO's Portal crossover is a way to get people talking, and the company definitely pulled it off. Appearing on TikTok, Twitch, Crunchyroll, and miscellaneous places online, everyone's talking about this! What's cool is that they even got the official voice actor for GLaDOS, Ellen McLain! Unfortunately, it looks like Portal 3, or any new content in the franchise, isn't coming anytime soon.

well I didn't have GEICO x Portal on my Bingo card for this year

[NintendoTV]

In all seriousness, this was a really fun crossover and a nice nod to the franchise as a whole.

From people in the valve community analyzing stuff with this ad:

The test chamber used in the ad isn't in the final game, and was actually showing off at E3 2010 when the game was shown off, however the chamber was cut from the final release.

If there was any news about a new Portal game, Valve would confirm, not Geico.

Although Portal 2 DID get verification from Valve yesterday that it will work perfectly on the Steam Deck. So there's news I guess.

I can’t believe the game was cancelled..rip Portal 3: Project GEICO, he was a good one.

[_Bran]

Imagine this GEICO ad was a hint at a Portal trilogy. That would be super funny

[superpig]

Portal 2 ending has a very good ending and doesn’t feel like a third entry is necessarily. Half life on the other hand does.

[mrspiffy]

A third Portal game just wouldn't make sense. The story is finished and Chell doesn't even have the portal gun anymore. Although, a spiritual successor set in one of Aperture's other test tracks could work really well

[crowspears]

Would love a spin-off game about Rattman in the 1970s which has Cave Johnson as the villain like they originally intended. I addition, more Aparture lore and information about Caroline. That would be really interesting.

[captainrelyk]

this doesn’t mean portal 3 won’t happen. Valve has already made a third half life game and portal 3 (or a vr spin off) is still possible. What this means is that the geico commercial isn’t related to portal 3 and is just for fun:

[subpartrash]

I’m a HUGE fan for portal, but I gotta say, I don’t want a portal 3. I would like a spin off, like half life alyx, but not a third game. The second game ended perfectly. No need to touch it

[splatt]

I think a portal triquel isn't going to happen, the story wrapped up nicely and I don't see where else they could go
However, a portal prequel?
That would be GREAT

[Poyostar]

As someone who feels as if the Portal series has concluded perfectly with the second game, a third one would've been redundant, so it's nice to see that this really was just a fun little crossover ad and not a hint to anything big from Valve...

Also, I'm kind of surprised that Ellen McLain WAS the one who provided the voice for GLaDOS in that ad; it really did sound like they got someone else to do it!

[oshabot]

I'm scared just by the title alone

[jharmond]

I feel like portal 2 is a great ending for the series and I wouldn't know where they would go story wise after. Unless it would be a flashback like you play as the human subject before Chell or something like that.

[SirLightsOut]

To be honest part of me really doesn't even want Portal 3. Portal 2 had a very satisfying ending. It was pretty conclusive. I feel like if Portal 3 happened there be a good chance of them messing that up. Think about it, Half-Life still doesn't have a conclusive ending. I don't want that to be the state of portal.

[zayamoone]

A Portal movie could still happen at some point. That would be cool, I think

[tropicaldino]

Why do I allways have an uncontrollable urge to watch your videos the day it comes out?

[bobross]

F to pay respect to people who thought this was a teaser to portal 3

[Sonic_Gamer]

I already knew that it started playing on Crunchyroll because I noticed it while watching Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, but I never knew that it also came to TikTok.

[subjectdelta]

We already got portal 3. Even a third song! Yes it’s lego but the story actually acts as a continuation kinda
