The Main Menu of Portal and Portal 2 are hubs for accessing different game modes, options, or other things.

Portal 1

Portal's main menu

The main menu is the interactive screen shown after starting up Portal. It provides links to the player that lead to beginning a new game, bonus maps, or continuing an existing game save.

There is also an option to begin the game with developer commentary, a list of achievements, and a list of options that the player can change, including player control and visuals.

The player can close the game by selecting "quit".


Portal 2

Portal 2's main menu

The main menu is the interactive screen shown after starting up Portal 2.

The main menu allows the player to begin a single player campaign, or a Cooperative Testing Initiative campaign. The player can also manage of in-game settings. Additional videos and concept art can be accessed by clicking the Extras option. Robot Enrichment allows the player access to their Cooperative Testing Initiative Backpack.

The Portal 2 menu features several backgrounds that display pre-rendered videos, which correspond to the story chapter currently being undertaken in the single player campaign.
