Master Portal 2's Test Chamber 2 with this step-by-step guide. Learn how to place portals effectively to solve puzzles and progress through Course 1.

Alright, let's tackle Test Chamber 2 in Portal 2 co-op. This one's all about coordinating with your buddy to hit switches and open up new paths.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Part 1: Initial Setup

    Okay, Player 1, here's what you need to do first. Look for the wall in the upper right-hand corner of the room. Place your entrance portal there. Now, turn to your left and find the wall that's in the corner of the room on the right-hand side. That's where your exit portal goes.

  2. 2
    Part 1: Entering the Locked Area

    Once you've used those portals to get into the locked area, you'll need to set up again. Look for a shoot-able wall on your right and place your exit portal on it.

  3. 3
    Part 2: Reaching the Switch

    Now for Player 1 to get to the switch. Place your first portal on the far left-hand corner, up on the upper level. This portal placement is key to reaching the switch. After that, place your second portal on the wall directly to your left, near the switch itself.

  4. 4
    Part 2: Meeting Player 2

    Go ahead and run through the portal you just placed. You should now be on the upper level, directly across from the switch. From here, you'll be able to see Player 2, who should be standing by their own switch on the opposite side.

Tips
  • Communication is super important here! Make sure you and Player 2 are talking about where you're placing your portals.
  • Don't rush the portal placement. Take a second to line it up correctly, especially for getting to the upper levels.
  • If you get stuck, try looking at the chamber from different angles. Sometimes a slight change in perspective can reveal the solution.
