Xbox is selling incredible Halo artwork to raise funds for charity. After Xbox decides to sell it as part of a charity auction, Halo fans will have the opportunity to acquire a magnificent painting based on Halo Infinite.

Halo Infinite was an important factor when it arrived on December 8, 2021, as the first mainline installment in the Halo franchise in over 6 years. Microsoft attempted to hype up the game in a variety of ways prior to its release, including TV commercials, limited-edition Halo Infinite Xbox systems and controllers, and much more. Among the promotional materials for the game's release, 343 Industries commissioned an artist to create a stunning painting of the Master Chief.

And there has been a lot of Halo-themed artwork throughout the years, this oil painting created for the debut of Halo Infinite was something unique. The artwork, designed by renowned artist Iva Troj, was 3 meters by 6 meters long and depicted the Master Chief fighting against Banished forces on Zeta Halo. The scenario was fantastic, with eye-catching movement everywhere the viewer saw. The artwork was previously featured at the Saatchi Gallery in London, England. That appears to be changing, as fans now are able to purchase a portion of this memorable artwork for themselves.

Xbox just announced that it has wanted to break ways with the beautiful Halo artwork. The company has planned to sell the central section of the image through an online auction, according to the company. The goal was to raise funds for a good cause. The earnings from this gorgeous painting would be donated to Special Effect, a UK-based charity that assists gamers with impairments. The item is presently up for auction on eBay until March 6.

Many gamers will definitely be excited by the opportunity to own a piece of famous Halo art. However, the price of this beautiful artwork is likely to be out of most fans' reach. Nonetheless, it is exciting to see that people with the appropriate funds will be able to buy this artwork while also supporting gamers with disabilities. It will be great to see who is the lucky recipient of this wonderful artwork in the following days.

While the sale of this oil painting is significant because it demonstrates Xbox's continuous support for disabled gamers, it is far from the only Halo-related news. Halo Infinite's developers, 343 Industries, recently published a new mid-season update. The patch was expected to fix issues in both the campaign and multiplayer modes of the game, according to the patch notes. The update, for example, is said to have fixed the Quick Resume feature. It also fixed multiplayer performance concerns, such as choppy first-person animations when attempting to clamber ledges.
