The Weighted Companion Cube was first introduced in ''Portal'', and remains prevalent in ''Portal 2''. It functions in the same way as a regular Storage Cube, being differentiated only to help players to feel attached to the cube, and realize that they must keep the same cube throughout the entire chamber. | |||
=== | === Edgeless Safety Cube === | ||
The Edgeless Safety Cube was introduced in ''Portal 2'', and is used only in [[Co-op]] gameplay, however it also appears once in the single player campaign as garbage. The "cube" is really a sphere. However, it still retains the coloring scheme and patterns present in the designs of the other cubes. | |||
