Portal 2 Cheat Codes: All Console Commands — god, noclip, slow motion (2026)
Portal 2 is Valve's main puzzle: a portal gun, Wheatley, GLaDOS and brilliant co-op. The game is great without cheats, but with console commands you can create real madness: fly through cameras, slow down time and teleport anywhere. We collected all the useful commands into tables.
How to enable the console in Portal 2
- "Settings" → "Keyboard/Mouse" → enable "Developer Console".
- Press tilde ~ in game.
- Enter sv_cheats 1 - without this, most commands will not work. In co-op, cheats are enabled by the host.
