Since its reveal at E3 this past June, all there was left to do was simply wait for a Portal 2 release date from Valve, but even that was a game in itself for some reason (we should have known). However, Game Informer, who wrote a 12-page cover story in their April 2010 issue, has reported that Valve told them at Gamescom that Portal 2 will be arriving February 9th, 2011. Valve has also told Game Informer that Wheatley, a British robot character in the game (and who was featured in past trailers), will be voiced by Stephen Merchant, who was a writer and an actor for the British version of The Office, as well as a current writer for the U.S. version.
