It features a cover created by [[Nicolas Bouvier|Nicolas "Sparth" Bouvier]], and will be published by [[Dark Horse Comics|Dark Horse Books]]. The book was originally listed as set to release on [[2020|December 29, 2020]], though following the delay of ''Halo Infinite'' is listed as releasing on June 29, 2021 and then listed on December 31, 2021 - however, these dates are placeholders given by Amazon, with the book's proper release date later announced in September 2020.{{Ref/Site|Id=AmazonListing|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.amazon.com/dp/1506720080|Site=Amazon|Page=The Art of Halo Infinite}}{{Ref/Site|Id=IGN|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.ign.com/articles/art-of-halo-infinite-book-cover-reveal-dark-horse-microsoft-xbox?sf125846974=1|Site=IGN|Page=The Art of Halo Infinite: Exclusive Cover Reveal}} | |||
