Portal 2 could lose title to Steam’s highest-rated game

Portal 2 could lose title to Steams highest rated game

While Portal 2 is currently the highest rated game on Steam, the popular indie game People Playground is getting dangerously close to taking that title away.

When Portal 2 debuted in 2011, it was critically acclaimed and often cited as one of the greatest video games of all time.

People Playground threatens Portal 2’s location

Portal 2 tells the story of the hapless experiment subject, Chell, who is once again left at the mercy of the evil GLaDOS. As in the first Portal game, Chell is tasked with completing a variety of increasingly difficult and dangerous puzzles using the iconic Portal Gun. Praised for its humor, engaging story and clever puzzle design, Portal 2 has an impressive 97.71% average rating on Steam.

But People Playground surprisingly competes with Valve’s first-person puzzle game. For those unfamiliar with this game, People Playground is a game that freely allows players to shatter puppets using a variety of deadly tools. Released in 2019, People Playground garnered almost 200,000 positive reviews on Steam and an incredible 97.51% on the platform.

While People Playground has a good chance of surpassing Portal 2, Steam’s highest-rated game, over time, the other six games also received reviews exceeding 97%. Games such as Vampire Survivors, Stardew Valley, Hades, the original Portal and Terraria also got this title. At the moment, it is of course unclear whether a game will be able to topple Portal 2’s throne. But it will certainly be interesting to see how the above list will change over time.
