How to use the yellow portals in Slime Rancher 2: Into the Labyrinth

That's some neat transformation magic.

Slime Rancher 2’s Grey Labyrinth is full of mysterious puzzles, slimes with peculiar abilities, and random contraptions without an apparent purpose. However, everything has its place in the Labyrinth, with the glowing yellow portals being especially handy if you’re looking for a specific Plort type.

How to find yellow portals in Slime Rancher 2

Yellow portals spawn exclusively in Slime Rancher 2’s Grey Labyrinth as part of the Into the Labyrinth update. Although you won’t find many within the Labyrinth itself, outside the ruins, there are several, including some locked behind Sun Door puzzles.

Yellow portals also appear on your world map, making them easier to locate later. However, you’ll need to discover it first beforehand, so be sure to spend plenty of time exploring.

What do yellow portals do in Slime Rancher 2?

The large yellow portals and their smaller, wispy counterparts that randomly spawn around the Grey Labyrinth convert Unstable Plorts to Prisma Plorts. Throwing an Unstable Plort into a portal will automatically turn it into a Prisma variant, allowing you to gain this item for future puzzles, blueprints, or money-making.

Alternatively, if you’re far away from a yellow portal but have a smaller, glowing wisp of a portal nearby, you can also throw your Unstable Plorts in them. However, these are a one-time use, so you won’t be able to toss 50 in at once unless you find a bunch in quick succession. The large yellow portal doesn’t despawn, so you’re free to throw as many Plorts in them as you wish.

Unlike other Plort types, Unstable Plorts tend to fly out of your Vacpack and despawn out of existence due to their unpredictable nature, so it’s difficult to transport them back to your Conservatory. Turning them into Prisma Plorts gives you an easy way to bring them back and make some solid money off them. Their prices average between 40 to 60 coins each, making them more valuable than most others, including Shadow Plorts.
