The '''Weighted Companion Cube''' (often referred to as the '''Companion Cube''') is a recurring object in the ''Portal'' universe. It appears almost identical to the [[Weighted Storage Cube]] but with a pink heart replacing the [[Aperture Science]] logo.

In ''[[Portal]]'', the Companion Cube was given to [[Chell]] in order to aid her in completing [[Portal Test Chamber 17|Test Chamber 17]]. {{Spoiler text|In order to progress through the exit at the end of the chamber, the cube was dropped into the [[Emergency Intelligence Incinerator|incinerator]] to be "euthanized". [[GLaDOS]] used this moment to taunt Chell during their confrontation. However, the Companion Cube can be seen prior to the end credits next to the [[Cake]], suggesting that it survived. In fact, after throwing the cube into the "incinerator", the cube can be found where it was at the beginning of the level.}}

The cube's survival is facilitated by GLaDOS's statement that "All Aperture technologies remain operational up to 4000 degrees kelvin."}}


The Companion Cube makes a prominent appearance in the ''[[Portal 2: Lab Rat]]'' comic, in which it speaks with protagonist [[Doug Rattmann]]. This appears to reference ''Portal'', in which GLaDOS states that the Companion Cube cannot speak and, if it does, its advice should be [[Media:GLaDOS_13_part1_middle-2b-2.wav|disregarded]].
