Portal writer Erik Wolpaw still wants to make Portal 3, but Valve's 'flat structure' makes it a challenge

Portal 2

Valve's allergy to the number three continues. While the desire for a third Portal game might not be quite as powerful as the hunger for Half-Life 3 (or even just Episode 3), the mind-bending puzzle series continues to have plenty of fans eager to see it continue, including Portal writer Erik Wolpaw. Unfortunately, the likelihood of another sequel remains hard to gauge.  

Wolpaw has advocated for Portal 3 before, hoping to inspire action in the company to which he returned as a part-time contractor back in 2019 after a stint at Double Fine. In December he even revealed that he had a "starting point" for Portal 3, but that this didn't mean Valve had committed to developing it. Four months on, it seems that not much has changed.
