Master Chief was seen getting down on stage with rapper Megan Thee Stallion during a concert at TwitchCon 2022, and even though it wasn’t an official Xbox-sanctioned appearance, videos of Spartan-117 dancing have taken social media by storm.
Halo partnerships and lifestyle lead Katie Jerauld posted on Twitter over the weekend to say Microsoft and Xbox had “nothing to do with it” but called Master Chief’s appearance at the concert “amazing though.”
Master Chief, the covenant are invading, where are you?

Master Chief was, in fact, just a cosplaying fan in the crowd who caught Megan Thee Stallion’s eye. Video of the concert shows her beckoning the cosplayer on stage, to the roaring approval of the crowd. Things continued to heat up from there, with Master Chief dancing and shuffling side-to-side behind Megan Thee Stallion on stage while she performed her set. She later tweeted out images of the cosplayer on stage, which were then retweeted by the official Halo Twitter account.
