There are two different types of portals in the game, one allowing you to escape and the takes you down one level deeper.

How to Use

Locate the portal and initiate its activation by pressing the F key. Once activated, a blue/red circle will materialize. Once the portal is fully materialized the transfer process will commence as when you step into it. It's crucial to exercise caution and be mindful of your surroundings, as any disruptions or enemy attacks while entering the portal could result in a failed escape.
