Trivia

 * It is the most expensive item in the entire game.
 * The Lunatic Cultist sound will only play a maximum of once per minute, regardless of how many times the cube touches lava.
 * The Companion Cube is a direct reference to the Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube, from Valve's Portal game series, as is the fact that the Companion Cube can activate Teal Pressure Pads. The Buff tooltip is also a line of dialogue from the first game.
