Get your gear on as Portal 2 goes cross-platform that will allow you to play against the toughest players from different consoles.

Portal 2 fans can definitely shout out loud as Valve reveals that the PlayStation 3 version of Portal 2 will have Steam features that will allow players to enjoy multi-platform perks such as cross-platform (PC/Mac vs. PS3) play for multiplayer games and cross-platform chat. What’s more, by just linking their PSN and Steam accounts, PS3 players of Portal 2 can unlock Steam Play (PC and Mac) copy of Portal 2 for free.

“Working together with Sony we have identified a set of features we believe are very compelling to gamers. We hope to expand upon the foundation being laid in Portal 2 with more Steam features and functionality in DLC and future content releases.” And compelling they are as several Portal fans have expressed great gratitude to this move.
